After four weeks of jumping around on crutches with a cast, it was finally time to remove the cast! Dad and I went to the Hospital to have the deed done. It went fairly quickly, but the Nurse managed to give me a nice gash with the “saw” used to remove the cast. Good thing I’m young so the traces will be minimal!
Now there’ll be a few more weeks with crutches, and then we get going on the road to recovery and Football!
During what seemed to be a very normal Football practice session on Thursday, I sustained a very painful fracture in a small piece of bone between my lower leg and my foot. We were playing a 4-on-4 match and I was going for the ball when a loud “thack!” could be heard. I fell down on the pitch in some serious pain. After many painful hours at the hospital, Dad and I went home, accompanied by a set of crutches and a cast. In a little while, we’ll do another X-ray and then have the cast replaced with something bigger and heavier (another cast). So, no more Football this year seems to be the verdict
