I broke my leg

Post Reply New Topic

I'm so glad to hear from you and so glad your mother is with you! I don't know what's going on with your friends; they don't sound like such good friends, do they? Maybe they misjudged the seriousness of the problem? But you're going again to the doctor - let us know how it goes!

I went to the doctor this morning... my feet looks horrible. Very purple and black, he said it is normal but I got really impressed. The other day I had a skin rash (it was unrelated to my broke leg, just allergy) so he didn't put a plaster cast, it was just bandages with a splint, now at least my skin is better so he made a plaster cast because it will help to heal better and also I can step now – but when I tried first I got too nervous, it was really difficult, I thought I couldn't do it. I think I was already too nervous about how my feet looked. I felt really, really bad while at the hospital – for a while I thought I would pass out or vomit, but I didn't and then I got fine. I think it was just being nervous, my mom told she worried because I was cold and too pale.

Well, now, there's progress! It must have been dreadfully upsetting at the time, especially with your foot being purple! That would give me a shock. And then you had to learn to walk on the cast.

But now you're home? And maybe you've had some sleep? And you can walk? Did they give you a cane or anything for balance?

Walking will get easier. It's still been a tremendous day. How do you feel now?

I'm home now, and I did slept a bit more – although is still a bit uncomfortable with the cast, it's too heavy!! They gave me a cane and I can walk better now, although I still feel a bit of pain but I was feeling it anyway because I had stopped the painkillers, I'll restart with it now.

That's better. Sleep as much as you can - it's nature's healer.

I went to university yesterday – it was such a full day, but it was nice as people were really nice with me and I'm not much mad at them anymore. When I got back home I was so exhausted, I slept more than 10 hours. Now I'm fine, I painted my cast Yellow.

Bravo!

I took the cast off!! So happy but it still hurts and I can't walk very well but hope it will recover soon

Congratulations - so glad to hear it!
