Thank you so much for all of the support.
I’ve decided to go ahead and if I walk 10 minutes and quit for the day so be it.

Maybe I’ll spend a day sitting by the road handing out frozen treats????
Who knows? I will be in Spain...
Help!! Damaged LCL yesterday and I’m supposed to fly to France tomorrow to start my Camino.
My doctor says go and walk a km a day! I’ll finish when I’m a hundred and eight. Do I go? Stay? Aarghhh! I just stepped wrong in the garden- nothing dramatic. I spent yesterday crying and icing and icing...
Adding my two cents worth to the pile. Your posts have guided me and taught me, and mostly impressed me. Im only sorry that I am walking too far ahead of you to buy you a beverage in thanks. ( well unless something goes seriously wrong).

Make sure it is clean, get antibiotic cream on it. Don't just let it go. Infections from blisters can go deep. To the bone! Be careful and take care.
Logrono isn't a bad place to spend a day...
Would having your darling rent a car and drive be a better solution?

Maybe even carry your pack if needed.
