Ouchie....I fell down...
10 years ago
Until such a time as the world ends, we will act as though it intends to spin on. I was taking my baby down to bed at about 6:30 tonight when my left ankle rolled inward at the same time my left wrist gave out...
She slipped out of my hands and slid down the three steps backward on her belly, she did not hit her head.
I hit the garage door and then the floor, immediately sat up and grabbed her, she screamed for a few seconds and then calmed and fell asleep on my chest.
As I was picking her up, I felt my vision going black and my ears felt...full. I had my oldest daughter come and sing me songs and tell me stories to keep me conscious. Ghizmo and Puma were returning the riding mower to Ghizmo's parent's place and had both left their phones home...
When they got home, they called the paramedics and I declined an ambulance ride to the hospital. But Ghizmo insisted I go. So off we went.
ER did x-rays of my ankle and did a cursory examination of myself and my baby.
Their conclusion was that our baby is 'perfect' and I have a badly sprained ankle.
I'm to keep it iced and elevated for the next 72 hours and then alternate ice and heat for a week or so.
Also they gave me Norco and ibuprofen for pain.
My right butt cheek took the brunt of the fall as well as my right knee and my fore arms and hands.
I'm sore all over and have an air splint and crutches. Yay.
Hugs and loves for all my friends.
Nighty night.
