The ankle

I know this is weird but I'm posting because I secretly think its kind of neat to look at.  And in the future if anyones ankle ever looks like this you should probably have it looked at.


After I sent Shawn a picture of my ankle he rushed home to take me in to get x-rays. 

I got to wear this sweet boot for about 3 weeks.  Awesome I know.

A few days later the swelling went down and the bruising started.  Other than it being really painful I thought it was pretty cool.  My ankle has now returned to almost its normal size.  I'm also out of the boot and I'm able to do the elliptical but its still sore but about a million times better than a few weeks ago.  I think I thought it would heal faster because after talking to Shawn it "wasn't a big deal" but a month later I'm realizing while it wasn't a horrible break requiring surgery (thank goodness) I still did a number on it.  Here's to a continued rapid healing process!
