I foolishly twisted my ankle and broke it on Wed. evening. Yesterday afternoon I had surgery to put the pieces back together. Once I'm feeling better I'll have plenty of free time to work on my Spanish. Until then, I'll be taking lots of naps.

Rest! Let everyone (else) wait on you hand and foot! If your chest hurts, call your doctor immediately! Try hard not to eat any more than usual! 8-)

After 10 weeks of hopping, hobbling, and limping, my doctor released me today. I have two shoes on for the first time in two and a half months. It feels weird but a big relief.

Gracias, Wilbur. Unfortunately, my doc says it's going to take a while. I'm not one of those young, quick healers. - Leatha, May 10, 2011

You have my sympathy. But it will mend. It just takes a bit of time, a bit of patience and a good physiotherapist. And nice people to look after you till you're back on your feet again.I know. From experience. Speedy recovery!

Leatha: Here's a sparkly "woof you" from all here at the forum! Rest well, and I agree, if somebody asks if they can help; let them. It's hard but you will heal quicker and feel better sooner; bandit's words of wisdom! smile
