Photo of the Day - Day 299

Okay so I finally went to the ER today after all the horror stories and coaxing from my colleagues.  I went to the ER instead of the Doctor and/or clinic as apparently you get your x-ray results right away instead of having to wait a few weeks.  I thought it was going to be a long wait but it turned out I was only there from 12:30 to 4pm and the hospital staff were absolutely awesome!
So I had my x-rays and the doctor was concerned so she sent me back for more x-rays.  She is still a bit concerned so the x-ray specialist will have a look at them.  For now all I need are crutches and I am sure I will heal quickly so I can get back to fun stuff and being able to walk normally again :) Wish I could fast forward a few days so I wouldn't feel so immobile..but I guess I can always use a rest.

 The little bear is meant to make kids feel comfortable so they are not scared of the xray machine, very cute. It made my visit to the xray room a bit happier too. Nothing like a teddy bear to warm up a sterile hospital environment.


My poor swollen foot, the little arrow is where they had concerns...looks fine to me...but I don't know x-rays! I learned that the R means right foot and the three initials are the radiologists initials so they will know who took the pic.

Then when I got home tonight I got this wonderful email from my friend Kattie who lives in Halifax, NS.  She sure knows how to cheer me up, she is so thoughtful in every way! :)

Hello sweetheart,
