Ouch!

MamaWick — Mon, 06 Jun 2022 18:19:16 GMT

I missed the short step from our carport to the deck, rolled my ankle, and went totally down. This was a few weeks ago. I should have seen my foot doctor then (rather than my scheduled appointment today). Need to immobilize it for 3 weeks. 😭

@MamaWick, Oh, I am so sorry! I hope you are much better soon. Falls are easy to happen, and slow to recover from.

I have had my share and am paranoid about falling.

Oh no @MamaWick!

That looks so painful!

Did you break some bones? It looks like it.

You will have to go out and sit in your chair and have your sweet deer give lick the wounds healing and make it better! And Willow too (or maybe not if she is still teething!).

I'm so glad you went to the doctor finally.

I wish they would give 2 boots because after awhile your back and hip start hurting walking lopsided so watch out for that.

Feel better soon!

Good Lord woman! If That's what happened to your ankle, I'm thankful Nothing Else gave out when you went down!

Rest that leg! Hope it's on the mend all ready.

Not to worry though. We know a few of your wildlife crew will visit you on the patio and maybe the in Kitchen given half a chance!

They'll do their best to keep your spirits up.

Oh dear! I sure hope you're feeling much better and on the mend. I saw the pics posted, that seem to be gone now (?), and then got interrupted so I just got back.

Yeah, OUCH! for sure. Sending positive thoughts and good vibes for a speedy, painless, recovery.

@MamaWick So sorry about your mishap! My son did the same thing and waited to see his doctor. He had an air boot for a month and it's better now. I hope yours gets all better soon!

@MamaWick Hope that you make a speedy recovery and I am sure Papa Wick will have to step up (pardon the pun) and feed the deer crew.

@MamaWick

My heart feels for you. Those clumsy things we do come back & bite us in a big way. Not only do you feel the pain, but there're other obstacles in the way .. losing your freedom to an extent; inconveniences, etc. When I read or hear of someone's injury such as yours, it brings back memories for me from 1990.

My VERY clumsyi, careless injury was my own fault! I had just come home from grocery shopping after work & instead of changing from my heels to a pair of slides, I kept my heels on .. proceeded to go back to my car to bring in the rest of groceries & crack! My heel got stuck btw my sidewalk & the curb. I heard the crack & thought it was a branch breaking from the tree .. nope, it was my leg. I ended up falling on the pavement of our townhouse parking lot yelling for my neighbor. I won't bore you with the rest of it all but it was a total of 7 1/2 months in a cast.

Sorry I didn't mean to take attention away from your post. I truly wish you a speedy healing time & I hope all goes well for you. Looks like Papa & Willow will be spoiling you for some time. Take good care.

Get well soon @MamaWick. I know that has to be painful.
