Broken Ankle part Three....

Good afternoon every one. Well here i am again post accident by two weeks. Well it is getting there,i was down at A&E on Saturday as my plaster was becoming loose. They were going to just re-bandage it,but they took it off completely and replaced it. Well it gave me a chance to have a look at it. I also took some E45 cream with me to put on my legs. The nurses were well pleased with the way it was looking. It is not infected and it looked very clean as well. They also said my skin was in good condition as well. One of the nurses who treat me on Saturday was on the ward when i came in the week before and she looked after me then. She was pleased to how well my ankle was healing. So here is to the next two weeks until i see the specialist on the 6th June. I hope to get a walking cast then, as we are going on holiday the next day. Happy afternoon to you all, love from me.xxx

Fabulous news about your ankle.

Did you get a pink cast to match your hair?

Or are you going to get people to sign your cast?

Keep your chin up chick ;-)

Oh dear, sorry to hear that. Hope it starts to improve soon. I remember when I had foot surgery being fed up & just wanting to be able to get out & about again as soon as possible. It's a shame we can't 'fast-forward' time at moments like this. Hang in there, it will get better xx

Sorry to hear your news, apologies for not responding sooner, been absent for three weeks! Send me an email with all that's been going on to get you to this state.

Hope you feel better soon and are able to have your holiday.xxx

I'm going to read previous episodes of the broken ankle story, but I'm so sorry to read this - its the first I've heard Sylvi. Do get better soon, I hope it doesnt prove too difficult with the holiday. Love, Cathie
