My sister broke her right ankle on the 3rd walking when her legs gave out on her and I was with her when she got the actual cast put on it on the 10th. On the 12th, I’m minding my own business coming out of my bathroom and my legs gave out on me in the same way hers did when she broke her ankle. Went to the orthopedic on the 13th to find out I broke my foot on the same leg she broke her ankle. Ready for the funny part?
When the doctor the options of a walking cast or a boot and my sister is behind him pointing to her cast and shaking her head no, I choose the cast and I can’t wait to get out of this thing. I would have been able to shower, I want to shower. It’s heavy as hell, I go to the orthopedic podiatrist a week from Tuesday, I don’t even want to wait that long.
I go for a walker on Monday, even though I am perfectly capable of walking on it I haven’t tried outside and Ill have to put a bag on it so it doesn’t get wet. Never ever ever getting a cast again if they offer the boot.
I have a sectional in my apartment that I can’t sit on because I can’t get up from it. I am so over this cast. We should probably play the lottery because what are the odds of us to both have casts the the same leg.
