Well, I've finally done it

Done what? Broken a bone! Yep. First time I have actually broken a major bone, not just a finger.

In trying to help Odin be brave. I encouraged him to go down a big old slide at a playground with me. Turns out this slide was a real death trap. It was super steep and fast. I could not slow us down and we crash landed with my left leg twisted under me. I managed to get up and with Heather's help, eventually made it to the car. I was thinking it was a bad sprain and just iced & wrapped it for the night. But by morning I could barely walk. Heather dropped me off at an urgent care and after a long wait they finally took x-rays. And sure enough, I have a displaced fracture of the fibula.

For now I have a boot and crutches. Heather ordered a scooter and I have to see an orthopedic Dr.

WHAT GREAT TIMING!!!Read more
