Thanks tonib ! It's not too bad unless I stand up which I've just discovered is agony. Looking forward to a few days pure slobbing anyway haha! No idea how long it takes to heal but once the horrible sensation (which is agony) of the blood rushing to it and making is swell up more every time I stand up goes away it should be a lot more manageable. Probably doesn't help that I completely refuse to take pain killers haha. Anyway lots of forced cat cuddles and puppy watching for me haha!

Oooooooooh I feel your pain hun (((HUGS))) I once fell down the last three steps and sprained my ankle really badly.....it puffed up twice it's size and went purple over the course of the next week and it was ages before I felt it had healed up properly Probably not helped by me continuing to go to work (as a gardener) instead of taking a few days off and not plonking a bag of frozen peas onto it

Well I was completely wrong about today's snapshot! I was carrying Rosa down the stairs to go to the dog park, missed a step by mistake and long story short, broke part of my ankle! Poor Rosa got cheated out of a visit to the park, but my man will take her out in a bit. I'm to keep it elevated and cool for the next few days and hopefully after that I can start walking her again. There's plenty places nearby where she can go off lead. I'm so thankful that I spend so long on and am so strict about her lead training. She rarely pulls on her walking lead (or even on the extending one) and is great at walking to the heel (often looking up at me even haha!). My man can do most of it anyway and the evenings he's working I can hopefully get a friend to walk her or to at least come with me for a walk to somewhere I can let her off the lead at. What a day! Hopefully tomorrow's picture will be much nicer haha! Although since I'm to lie here with my foot up and cold, I don't imagine it will be very interesting. Maybe I can do some training with Rosa from my throne Is that it ? no plaster ? or do you need to go back in a week and have it plastered smilesbetter . Take the pain killers, trust me you will feel more comfortable and take them regular every day get them built up in your system, don't wait for the pain to come first Trust me I know what I am talking about

I know how painful it is breaking your ankle, I shattered the bone in mine and had to get 2 operations to fix it!! Look on the bright side... you'll probably get a cool cast people can sign Seriously though I hope you're feeling okay and i wish you a quick recovery!!!

Thanks guys! No cast as the break it's too bad. Broke my wrist last year and had a cast for that, quite scared of the cast cutter so glad I don't need that. Plus I can remove this thing and wear socks under it so can retain some sense of style, unlike with my arm cast where I couldn't fit anything other than tank tops over it haha.
The pain isn't so bad today, and when I get up it doesn't get so painful. Not a fan of painkillers (I swear I've never had one that worked) so tend to use the chocolate and ice cream method of pain killing (works a charm!).
Made arrangements with people for Rosas care tonight and tomorrow morning as my man has work, so I have nothing to worry about till Monday now (which is German class).
Anyway sorry for clogging up this thread a bit haha! Will get a pic for today later, love the idea of this thread!
