sfek! Anyway, she ended up at Harbor View, the big trauma hospital in Seattle. Her doctor was the Seahawks orthopedic surgeon. Her leg was so swollen - Trish Jan 27, 21:54 7

    - For the record, the hopping around on one foot thing is being done with a walker. -- nm - Ender Jan 28, 09:15

    - Yeah, they mentioned that. I think the puking was actually dehydration. - Ender Jan 27, 23:55
  - let it heal properly, don't mess around. -- nm - loosilu Jan 27, 23:04
  - I became a huge proponent of ADA guidelines after being on crutches for a couple of months. -- nm - MojaveMeg Jan 27, 22:04
When D was 14, she did an ankle roll like that. She ended up with 3 plates and 12 screws. -- nm - Trish Jan 27, 21:50
