I've Hurt My Leg

 Things are not progressing well herelol

 
Mike is doing much, much better and is actually able to almost
sleep right through the nite now, and isnt' taking any of the Percocet
they gave him. Good thing, because yesterday we were transferring a big
water container from the back of one of our 1/2 tons to the other
and I gave it a big shove and when I went to regain my footing
I stepped down and there was no tailgate
I fell onto one leg because the other one was still in the truck
and after a visit to the hospital I am now in a knee imobilizer
and off work for at least a week with a torn ligament.
At least nothing was broken though, and though I can't walk on it
at all right now, I am hoping that I'll be able to go back to work next week
Great way to get the long weekend off eh?lol
 
Our 17 y/o is out in Calgary till Sunday so that only leaves Cody to
do chores and he's been working everyday. He did drive me to the
hospital this morning though, as he's the only one here who can
drive right now
When it rains, it pours doesn't it??

Quick Update

 Just a quick note before I'm off to work this morning 


Things went well at the hospital....I have never been in a hospital
that was so efficient and sooooo quick!!!!
Dr. said the xrays look good, his neck is healing up wonderfully
just as it should be....so another 3 weeks in the brace and then
if the next xray shows it's healed up fine he'll have physio for a few more weeks  After the 6 hour drive he was still not feeling
too much pain...so that's a good sign too 
And bonus....I got out of a whole day of chores yesterday, LOL!!!  I luv my boys!!!!!!!!!!!!
