I know all about ankle injuries. The *pop* he heard and the knot he<br \/>\nfelt were further out on the side of his foot.&nbsp; School nurse handed him a<br \/>\nbaggie filled with ice and said to ice it for an hour (I&#8217;m no orthopedic, but<br \/>\nI&#8217;d never ice for more than twenty mins at a pass).&nbsp; <\/p>\n<p>So he limped through the rest of the school day, limped home, limped through<br \/>\nthe yellow fever appointment.&nbsp; Once home, we had to decide whether to<br \/>\nproceed to his sports banquet (an event where he would be honored as MVP of his<br \/>\nsoccer team, an event we&#8217;d already shelled out cash for) or, instead, take him<br \/>\nto the the local prompt care for an x-ray.&nbsp; We went with the latter, and it<br \/>\nturned out to be the right decision: he has a busted foot.&nbsp; I didn&#8217;t see<br \/>\nthe x-ray, but the fifth metatarsal on his right foot has, at the very least, a<br \/>\nchip fracture.&nbsp; What does it mean?&nbsp; Ten days in a splint, ten days on<br \/>\ncrutches, ten days without showers (leg-out-the-tub baths instead).&nbsp; <\/p>\n<p>We picked up some ibuprofen, then hustled home in time for a pizza to be<br \/>\ndelivered.&nbsp; At home, we found our landlord (and friend, of course) sadly<br \/>\ntacking Lost Dog notices on the utility poles out front.&nbsp; His Jack Russell<br \/>\nTerrier vanished from the back-yard in the afternoon.&nbsp; Gone.&nbsp; He&#8217;d<br \/>\nalready canvassed the area, but I hopped on my bike and cycled through the<br \/>\nneighborhood once more before dark, if for nothing other than good manners.&nbsp;<br \/>\nThat and E.&#8217;s a cool dog, and I can vividly remember the few times T. (my old,<br \/>\ngood dog) ran off.&nbsp; With this heat, lots of people were out on the streets,<br \/>\non their porches.&nbsp; Syracuse isn&#8217;t an air-conditioned city, which is good<br \/>\nfor lost-dog searching.&nbsp; One block over I secured a tip from a dog-walker.&nbsp;<br \/>\nHe&#8217;d seen a dog like E. just an hour earlier.&nbsp; And sure enough, it panned<br \/>\nout.&nbsp; E. turned up, brought home by the same young girl the tipster<br \/>\ndescribed.&nbsp; <\/p>\n<p>That accounts for just about everything since three o&#8217;clock this afternoon:<br \/>\ntwo hospitals, yellow fever (Ph. has technically contracted it, albeit from a<br \/>\nmodified virus), a broken foot splinted, and a lost dog found.&nbsp; And pizza.&nbsp;<br \/>\nLike I said, it&#8217;s been easy to forget about decaffeination.<\/p>\n<p>Note:&nbsp; The prompt-care office out-sources crutches.&nbsp; Before they<br \/>\ncould hand over the crutches, they needed another four forms filled out&#8211;forms<br \/>\nwhere we give over all of our information, forms where we agree to pay for them<br \/>\nif insurance won&#8217;t.&nbsp; Nurse: &quot;Just fill out the highlighted portions of the<br \/>\nforms.&quot; D: &quot;What should I put for &quot;Supplier&quot;?&nbsp; Nurse: &quot;Um.&nbsp; I don&#8217;t<br \/>\nknow.&nbsp; Just leave it blank.&quot;&nbsp; D.: &quot;It&#8217;s highlighted.&quot; Nurse: &quot;Just<br \/>\nskip it.&quot;&nbsp; Oh, and he had to ask us&#8211;as a matter of official procedure&#8211;if<br \/>\nwe had a preferred crutch provider.&nbsp; <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p><span class=\"span-reading-time rt-reading-time\" style=\"display: block;\"><span class=\"rt-label rt-prefix\">\u23f3 Approximate reading time: <\/span> <span class=\"rt-time\"> 3<\/span> <span class=\"rt-label rt-postfix\">mins<\/span><\/span>Although the decaf headaches were considerably worse today, the result, I suspect, of hay fever clobbering me while I slept, it&#8217;s been easy to forget about my caffeine detox in light of the hardships of those around me.&nbsp; Ph. came home early from school today because we had an appointment at Community General with the&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"ngg_post_thumbnail":0,"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_feature_clip_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":false,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2},"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false},"categories":[11],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-6326","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-unspecified"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v28.0 -
