    About Me Hello! My name is Calloway but most people call me Callie. I was born missing my fibula and all my foot and ankle bones. I've had lots of surgeries, and have no problems answering questions about my leg and my life and how the two have worked together. I am of the mindset that I would not be the person I am today if it wasn't for my leg, as well as the people that have been brought into my life as a direct result of my leg.
    Music I love country music, but my husband hates it... and since I love pretty much all music, we listen to alot of old rock as well as soft rock, blues, and jazz.
    Movies it's a much shorter list of the type of movies I like less... I'm not a huge fan of scary movies... but as a rule... if I haven't seen it... I'll at least give it a shot... and if I have seen it, and liked it... I probably own it.
    TV Grey's Anatomy, Law & Order (all of them), CSI, Numbers, NCIS, ANTM, The Hills (i wish i could lie and say i hate it..), LA Ink (Kat Von D rocks my socks!)
    Books I have become rather pathetic in my reading... maybe I'll make that a near the end of the year resolution and try to read something of substance.
    Likes I like currling up in bed or on the couch with my husband on a rainy day, walking the dogs at 2 am beacuse it's the only time you can see stars in the city, grilling out with friends, a bag of chips and dip, wings, and a good baseball or football game... and sooo much more.
    Dislikes not a fan of having to go to work on a rainy monday, or tuesday, or wednesday... or a sunny day for that matter... hehe
    Hobbies Photography is not so much a hobby as a passion... and leads to passion as well... I met my husband in our college photo 1 class.
    Vices dont' smoke (that often) drink rarely (but enough) "if it comes from the ground it's probably safe" -Knocked Up
    Virtues uhh.... well... I love children and animals and most people think I'm a pretty good friend...
    Heroes George Hyder... an awsome man who's life was much to short.
    Here For Friendships
    Relationship Status Married
    Orientation Straight
    Children Maybe Someday
    Number of Children More!?!

    Height 5'6"

    this weekend was really nice...

     

    Sean and I both agreed that it really felt like we were married for the first time... just the two of us bumming around our place... walking around the neighborhood... and simply enjoying being with eachother...

    helps alot. thanks for taking the time to fill me in. i'll update you after the surgery. her leg is so gnarled with the other overgrowth from the disease that it is just a wait and see what they are gonna do until they get in there.

    take care!

    Hi there. Thank you for the comments. Very nice to meet you. This website is very cool. Save up for those tats. It would be my pleasure to help you pick some out and recommend the best place to have them done and I think I know how to contact Kat herself. I'll update my page and post a current pick of me. You'll see that I have some good experience in tats. Your husband looks like a kewl dude. I hope to someday find someone I feel comfortable with to get that close to. Have a great weekend. Take care.

    i hope this is getting back to you and not back to me. we will see. okay, now you are talking about wierd bony overgrowth spines/spikes right. if so, what was the surgery like to get rid of them and how long was the down time. also, what should i be on the lookout for in terms of symptoms? is the pain with them a deep inside kind of hurt? cate has little feeling in her stump and tends to make mince meet out of it, so i am hoping that bone spikes would cause a different sensation that maybe she will be able to feel.

    thanks for the info.
