Update on my broken ankle

[studytime45]

My surgery was bumped, so I should be going in sometime this morning. I'm SO nervous. The nurses here are awesome about pain though, and I'm currently getting morphine.

For those who missed what happened, I fell down the stairs yesterday and fractured my fibula in my ankle. I need surgery to put a metal plate in.

Oh, and my hospital roommate is senile and apparently in a lot of pain. She won't stop.yelling in Croatian

Aw, I'm sorry you broke your ankle! I'm sure everything will go fine in surgery. Hope you feel better, soon!

Google translate says Croatian for silence is sutnja. Said like SHOE-tee-ya. You're welcome.

Oh no! I read your post last night and I'm glad you went to the Dr. Obviously, a sprain would have been more convenient. I'm sorry Hope it all goes smoothly!

As someone dealing with soft tissue injury, I agree 100%.

Good luck, Study!

True story. The guy who did my knee and who I might see again relatively soon for the same damn knee is super good looking.

You poor thing. I hope surgery goes well.

[leeann]

Good luck, I hope all goes smoothly.

Oh no. I'm sorry about your ankle- BUT, I hear the swear words are the best part of croatian. Ask her for lessons! I bet she'll be pleased to swear as much as possible, and you'll both have some fun?

I hate this for you, and I hope you have a smooth recovery. And this sounds like an awful thing to say now, but bones do usually heal better than soft tissue injuries.
