6. Once in a while, you will have to make sacrifices for your health

like taking life saving drugs and undergoing life saving procedures that were first tested on animals. The good news is that many of the drugs and procedures are now also part of standard veterinary treatment, also.

I don't know of any truly supportive shoes that don't use leather somewhere in the construction, if only in the straps.

You might just have to bite the bullet and be a little less pure for 6 months or so until your tendon heals. After all, other people killed the animal for food. It would be a desecration to leave everything else to rot.
