I tripped and fell as I was getting out of my car this morning. It hurt like crazy and I couldn’t move my left foot at all. Luckily, other people were in the parking lot when it happened and were able to help me up and in to my office. I called my husband to come get me to take me to get checked out.
He arrived about 30 minutes later and took me to the emergency room. We ended up waiting awhile before I was seen. The x-rays showed that I broke my leg in a few places. It wasn’t a pretty site. They were able to set the fractures and then stuck me in a cast. I’m not allowed to walk on it for at least two weeks.
What an inopportune time for this to happen, right before Halloween.
