A Big Boo Boo...........

It's Saturday afternoon and we are still on track.Kinda.......
Last nite,we had a boo boo.Lori was getting out of the trailer and had a bad step which resulted in a broken ankle bone.Fortunately she wasn't carrying anything which could have made things worse.I think she was pushing too hard,was tired,and lost her focus on what she was doing.But at least she won't need any surgury to repair the damage.The broken bone is in her ankle,where the tibia forms a brace or collar for the foot bones.I guess we are lucky that it was a simple stress breakage.Cause it could certainly have been worse.As it is,she is in a lot of pain,even with vicadin to help manage it.We borrowed a wheelcair from the hospital but our house is not wheelchair friendly,tight squeezes everwhere.So I'll try to find a walker for her today.
Got the walker--only $56.00 not too bad.
Lori is awake now so I've got to go.
