No shoes, learn to walk again
I'm trying, man. Every time I try to walk without shoes I have a hella hard time. My physical therapist is going to help me get used to no shoes, but I gotta learn to move with shoes first since I do most of my physical stuff in places where shoes are mandatory
Go to a podiatrist. They have medical shoes in their office and your insurance will usually pay for them.
Try these barefoot shoes.

This would be my goal, too. Wear no shoes as much as possible and make sure your feet will work like they're supposed to again. Wear as minimal shoes as possible when going completely barefoot isn't feasible.
If that doesn't work, seek medical help that aims to restore your feet to a point where it is.
If that doesn't work, then accept invalidity and try to cope. Again, following medical advice only.
