Good Evening, everyone.
I'm not looking for sympathy, believe me, because what I did was really dumb.......I'm looking for good solid suggestions from anyone who's been there done that and got the T-shirt!!!
It has been very interesting explaining to the 7 year old what is going to be done and why I am not coming home from the hospital tomorrow.
I'm looking forward to reading the experiences of others.
In the grand scheme of things, this is just a minor blip - but from my seat right now, it's turning into a bit of a crisis.
Bump!

Oh Gabz! I'm so sorry!!! Bless your heart. I don't have any suggestions tonight (I, too, am having a crazy week!). I will sleep on it and maybe something brilliant will come to me in the night. Or, you know, some other wonderful freeper will have already come up with the perfect suggestions.
Have they given you a time frame of how long you will have to be off your feet? I had surgery on a foot once. The only thing I can think of right now is how I wrapped my foot in cling wrap so I could take a shower. It sucked. I'm so very sorry!
Sorry about your mishap and get well soon.
Good luck! Be sure to follow the instructions after the surgery (as well as possible), so that you'll recover, instead of being permanently limited!
So sorry to hear about your accident! I have had many ankle injuries throughout my life. I played college basketball. My best advice is to listen to your doctors and do of all your rehab. I hope you have some family close by!! I usually take care of people in my family when they need it. Anyway, just make sure that when you are imobile, try to pick a good location to set up shop for the day. Try to have just about everything you will need close by, especially good books (might I suggest the new Harry Potter)and magazines, and take any and all help that is offered!! This may be your only "vacation" for a very long time. ;) Make the most of it!
