You are having a way better time than I think I'd be having if I were in your shoes shoe.

Too soon?

I live in Colorado. Back in 2008 I was "caught" with some cannabis and some paraphernalia. I took a "substance abuse" class to get rid of the possession charge, but the paraphernalia charge stuck. I don't feel it's right, considering that just 4 years later we legalized it. Is there any way I can have it expunged?

Oh, for sure. I didn't mean to imply literally going after the guy. I just wondered if this was one of those situations where the guy was actively involved. As in, he's visited you because he really knows he fucked up, or is going above and beyond what you'd expect. We certainly all make mistakes, and I think if I had been the one to make the mistake, I'd do my best to show how sorry I am while also trying to stay away if that's what you wanted.

You said almost nothing about the guy who hit you. What's his involvement in all this? By that, I mean is he aware you're lost your foot? Is he in contact with you and super apologetic? Sounds to me like you're in nothing but good spirits, which I find awesome. I'm not sure how I would react if I were in your situation. I just don't know how I'd feel about that other person who technically took my foot.

6 years ago I severed all the ligaments in my ankle, and was unable to walk on it for almost 4 months. Took a good 6 months to rehab after surgery and post-cast. I remember being so sick of not being able to walk. I just wanted off those damn crutches. I can't imagine how I'd feel now without a foot. Hang in there, and I hope it heals up well for you!
