Progress Report-
The doctor said...In a perfect world (translated, if you had insurance) we would definitely put plates and pins in your ankle. However, I think we can accomplish the same goal with a cast, but it will take twice as long. It was so swollen, they couldn't put the cast on, so I'm in a hard splint until next Wednesday. Abso-fucking-lutely NOOOO weight bearing for at least the next 5 weeks and then 6 to 8 weeks of boot and crutches. Then he sent me home WITHOUT crutches and told me to go to a medical supply store and rent or buy some. Luckily, we have friends who have been able to come up with a wheelchair and a walker. *sigh*....I HATE not being in control of my life, but camping out in the recliner and being waited on literally hand and foot DOES have it's good points..*LOL*
