4 Weeks With a Cast and 4 Weeks With a Boot

I finally went to the doctor. I have to wear a cast for 4 weeks and then a boot for another 4 weeks. I can do this for 8 weeks. I keep telling myself that it could be worse. I just miss work and doing things for myself. I also miss Annie. She is probably so confused and doesn't understand. :( I had a little breakdown on Tuesday night. I just don't like asking people for help and I can't do anything it seems like. Matthew is so good to me and I don't know how I can ever repay him. With everything on his plate, he has to take care of me too. The pain was starting to get better and then I had the cast put on and I'm soooooo sore. Here are some pictures

 My very nasty cankle. It looks very gross...so I thought I would share it with you and you can be grossed out too. :)

Top view. Not as gross looking but still very big and swollen. 

 My BRIGHT pink cast! haha I will stand out for sure! :)

 My daily position as of right now. In bed keeping it elevated. Not fun but only a few more days! 

You can see my little toes sticking out. I'm glad they can breathe. 

 The Evil crutches. 

I got a wheel chair to bring to work. It should help me get around and I can help out people better then if I had crutches. I also got a little knee scooter. It's pretty awesome but it's still in the car. I can't use it just yet because I'm very sore from the cast. 

Well I'm trying to be optimistic and this is only a break for 8 weeks. If I follow the doctors orders, I should be good to go!! yay!! Thank you for all of your prayers and sweet calls and comments. You all are making this a lot easier. :)
