Yesssssssssss!!! I did not break my achilles WOOT WOOT!!
 

Thank fucking GOD! I guess I broke some other ligament or tendon right next to it and then strained some other tendon too. I'm so happy!!! Gosh, I've been envisioning 50K or more and casts and crutches for 18 months to 2 years.

Instead I guess I did the right thing by making sure it was immobilized even though I did go ahead and take off to Phoenix. I gotta keep my boot for a total of 6 weeks and then work it back to shape on my own. Omg I'm so happy and relieved.

WHEW!!!

That's great news & you deserve it girl!
Was really great to meet you at The Forum :)

Good to hear. Now don't make me lecture you anymore ;) go get that insurance.

Thanks Sarah! It was great to meet you too. In fact we should talk today and get some stuff started. No need to wait.

Man oh man I'm just so happy. No crutches needed anymore either. That was such a total pain in the ass. It was sure different to drag my ass around on a couple of poles when I was 25 vs. 34 that's for sure. WHEWWWW

Yes yes yes!! I'm going to go look something up right now as we speak. I got off easy with 500 bucks. It could have been horrible.

thats good to hear rrred

I just spent 5 weeks in a boot for something similar. It was worse than the time I actually broke it.

I'm still in some slight pain, but the fucking boot annoyed the hell out of me so I ditched it.

great news RRRed also great to see you in AZ

Absolutely! I am hitting you up in a few :)

RRRED It was good seeing you =)

That's really good news to hear, sweetie. Now ya just gotta turn your little ones into little chore-slaves.

Awesome RRRED! You are welcome to sit on my lap any time.

Breaking a bone is nothing compared to tendon/ligament damage. Anyone that saw your face felt your pain at the show Nicole but remember that's what pain medication is for.... to help you get through it and Keep on Truckin'. :thumbsup

Thanks for the intro to Sean at the Suite 301 party and I look forward to seeing you at the next webmaster gathering. :winkwink:

That is amazing. It was great to see you in Phoenix!!!!

Thanks for that vidodin that night!! I had never tried one before. I think that was the night I tossed the crutches aside and said screw it. I felt NO pain AT ALL. It was heaven and I really needed one night off from hurting.

I have a pretty big pain tolerance but shit my hip and my ribcage and back and everything else was almost too much. I've finally had enough time since I've been back to pace myself and add strength to the rest of my body without overdoing it too much.

I'm gonna tie up a pillow case to my leg in a min here and go down to the beach and walk around on the rocks. It's good exercise and good to know I can't hurt anything further as long as I can't move it.

I'd like to talk to you a little bit more btw in regards to your site, etc. I'm gonna go there and snoop around a bit here first. Thanks again Jim!
