From: h.sowalla@gmail.comSo, yesterday I fell outside while walking my dog. Actually to shorten the story Cali (my dog) and I were attacked by a rooster, which caused me to trip and fall down a set of steps and twist my ankle. I ran to the ER last night to get Xrays and had an appt. with what I call my "foot specialist" today. As it turns out I fractured my ankle :( I have to go for a tri-phase bone scan to see how extensive the damage is, but for now I am stuck in an aircast and have to use my wheelchair or crutches (whichever I can manage, although my balance on crutches is really sucky). I swear if its not one thing going wrong its another! :( But, at least my doc gave me some nice strong pain meds to help with the pain, which is horrible! *sigh*

sometimes I feel like I should live in a bubble, lol.
Hope everyone else is doing well!

So far I am doing okay getting around. Though my foot keeps swelling and I have to take off the front part of the air cast. So basically for now its pain meds, ice, and elevating the foot.
As for the rooster, he is still around though I told my dad that as soon as I can get around he is so going into the soup pot!
