Wow that is awful. You seem to making the best of it though. I've never broken anything, but I had a pretty terrible sprained ankle a few years ago. Took me out for a couple days, then crutches after.

OT school is paying off (I was an Occupational Therapist before I went into IT). I'm adapting fairly well. I've figured out how to fill the dog's water bowl (fill up a 20 oz soft drink bottle with water, seal it, then transport it to the bowl in a grocery bag). I've now got a network of rolling computer chairs set up so I can get through rooms faster with the bad knee on the rolling chair. Much easier than the crutches! I have a tote bag I can sling over my back so I can gather up a bunch of stuff I need and carry it all at once.

I just wish the dog didn't want to go out (and come back in) so often. And, well, I can't wait til the last minute to go to the little girl's room!
