surgical boot

That was at the end of March but with her surgical boot wrapped up in a waterproof covering, Ormerod is hobbling around on crutches in the snow at Cairngorm Mountain, in the Scottish Highlands.

She also wore a surgical boot, just as husband Wayne did when he broke his metatarsal before the 2006 World Cup - the tournament when the "Wags" first burst onto the scene.

There was plenty of nursing work that could be done just as well in a surgical boot as in a shoe.

I also needed a large surgical boot on my foot to help me walk.

She wore a surgical boot for months and was in and out of physical therapy, but the foot only seemed to get worse.
