Five days after landing at the bottom of the stairs with a broken 5th Metatarsal (it’s in your foot and I’ve been told is the same injury that kept David Beckham out of the World Cup) and I’m beginning to be safer on the crutches (definitely not as easy as it looks) and I’ve got the hang of going upstairs backwards on my bottom so with all this my arms are getting toned (unexpected bonus), I’m sleeping 14 hours a day, I’m learning how much I take my mobility for granted and how much I have to be grateful for. After yet another visit to the hospital my foot is so swollen they’ve taken the plaster off – (it was No. 5) and so now my foot feels very vulnerable with only tubigrip on it but it’s so light! I am however, a bit worried that one leg is developing muscle and the other is losing it. Help! I’m becoming lop sided!!
