How Nice is This...?

Yes - that is my leg and foot in a really pretty brace... I go tomorrow for a cast and I'm looking at 6-8 weeks of crutches. I fractured my ankle bone by falling down the stairs in my house. I have bruises and pulled muscles everywhere! I can't believe how sore I am besides my ankle! And now - it is time for a nap... pain pills are kicking in! :)

Ooooh Jamie! You poor thing. :( Although not personally but I know what you are going through. It looks all too familiar with what my mom just went through by missing a step. I hope the pain eases up a bit for you. *hugs*

Oh my goodness Jamie :( I'm so sorry. I hope the pain goes away quickly and you can just enjoy the time off your feet. Want me to send you some books to read?

That looks and sounds so painful. :(

Hi there I just saw your blog and I thought I was the only klutz that can fall down the steps and break something,lol. My wife drove me to the ER yesterday and xrays show a fracture so here I am stuck in the same splint as you and they stupid crutches that I can't get the hang of! I have to make an appointment with a foot specialist to get a cast,what a pain. My foot is still so swollen,my toes look like sausages,lol. How are you feeling? Feel free to email me and vent,not doing much today.

Oh man Dave - I can feel for you! It has now been 3 weeks and my foot STILL swells up every day by the time I get home from work... I hope your leg is doing better now!
