So, of course while I was away
Carly got hurt. I'm a little fuzzy on the details. Jumping, sidewalks, curbs all played a part in it. But she rolled her ankle. Badly. Jacob took her to the ER after the first night and they said it was just a bad sprain. Crutches and air cast. 5 days later, it was still horribly painful and swollen, so I took her to the orthopaedic doctor to be sure it's not broken before we head out on vacation next week. A stress xray was done and it showed no breaks. However, when you see her xray, there is a little hole right where the leg bones meet the ankle bones. That should not be there. But she stretched the ligaments so bad when she rolled the ankle, her bone has shifted a bit. She got a much more restrictive brace to wear for a few weeks and then they want to start her on some physical therapy. I'm hoping that won't be necessary. In the meantime, she is elevating it and resting up for our trip.
