How do I insert a footnote on a single page of a Word .doc using Microsoft Office XP?

I need to insert the text '; *Splint removed at 6 weeks '; at the bottom of a single page and it keeps appearing on all pages of the document.How do I insert a footnote on a single page of a Word .doc using Microsoft Office XP?
Don't insert it as a Footer or it will appear on each page. Place your cursor at the word to which you want a reference and from the Insert menu choose Footnote and click OK. This will place a number at reference point and the footnote will only be at the bottom of this page.How do I insert a footnote on a single page of a Word .doc using Microsoft Office XP?
If you want this as a footer on all your pages, go to ';view'; on the toolbar and click on ';headers and footers';. Then if you dont want it on your first page, click ';File';, then ';Page Setup';, click the ';Layout'; tab, then about midway down the page under heading ';headers and footers'; put a check mark in ';different first page';.
un-select the check box that says something along the lines of ';continue on all pages after this.';
