Sorry to hear you hurt your ankle so bad, and that the doctor didn't take you seriously. Phooey on him! You have the worst luck!!!! But I'm glad they finally did something about it, and you have it immobilized.

I just wanted to let you know I was thinking about you. You will have to practice some different baby-making with that cast on your foot!!!!

That's awful Michelle! I hope it doesn't end up being serious. Maybe my little story will make you laugh just a bit.....

I fell in the Kmart the other day. Slipped on a barret package or something. I had heels and a skirt on and some guy watched me fall. Do you think he even said "are you alright?" NO< he watched me fall and walked totally passed me. I'm not sure if he was holding back from laughing at me and couldn't look at me or what! I was so embarassed anyway but still....jerk! I fortunately was ok. I was lucky though.

Stay off your feet as much as you can and feel better soon

My falling stories new

I was looking at all of the beautiful flowers at a Lowe's one day when I walked right into one of those low metal carts they keep in the garden area. I never saw it. I went flying over it, and one of my shoes went the other direction. My 17-year-old son was with me, and he was so embarrassed that he acted like he didn't know who I was. My ankle and knee was pretty bruised, but my ego was bruised even worse. I felt so ridiculous. One minute I was gazing at the flowers, and the next minute I was straddling this cart. I know I'm clumsy, but those things are dangerous!

And when my sister and I went to see the American Idols in concert, as we climbed up the steps to this huge coliseum, my sister missed a step and went down on her hands and knees. Not the most graceful entrance to see Clay Aiken!!! Ha!

I have fallen:
down the steps in my apartment. ouch.
down the steps of the metro in paris. ouch + embarrassing.
and the very worst ... You know my user pic? That was taken my last night in London. BF and I got all dressed up and went to a very fancy French restaurant. As usual we were the youngest onese there by 20 years. I was wearing these really cute wooden heels -- like candies -- and a long brown skirt, and a cute top. Well we entered, I gave my coat to the hostess, and we went down a long hallway, around a corner, down some steps, through another hallway, and entered the dining room. The parquet foors were beautiful -- and newly polished. My right heel slipped on the floor, my leg went gliding out in front of me and kind of across my body, and I fell in a giant, embarrassed heap, right in front of the entire dining room. It was mortifying. I had to convince the waiter I wasn't drunk just to get a glass of wine. Way to leave my bf with a lasting impression of my grace and elegance!

This is yet to be the most embarrassing day of my life...

Picture a huge lecture hall, a final exam...SILENCE in the HUGE room full of all my classmates.

I was one of the first ones to finish the exam. Oh God I am laughing just thinking about it...

I had to crawl over 2 people to get out of my aisle and head down the stairs to the front of the room. GIANT stair case. I got over the first guy fine, but the second guy had his backpack and all this crap on the floor I had to step over, holding my bag and my test and all. Well my foot got stuck on his bag, and so I took this GIANT step trying to make it to the stairs w/o falling....
My foot landed sideways, halfway on the step....so down I go, down the huge aisle of stairs in the big lecture hall full of silent people....huge crash, my bag went flying with all my books and papers going all over the place. I was in so much pain but I had to act like it didn't hurt. I wanted to DIE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The only thing I was glad about was that it was the final exam and I didn't have to see most of those people for awhile.

Ugh. I hate even thinking about it!! LOL.

Eh, why not??? I'm writing this to let you know that not all of us guys are pigs like that dude.


It won't bankrupt KMart but will do wonderful things for YOUR bankbook!!!

PS: I've read quite a few textbooks on business that use KMart as an example of "what not to do in management!" No kidding. I suggest going to WalMart!!! Oops, I forgot we aren't supposed to promote businesses, here.

can't imagine how much pain you are in.. but I have my share of those stories including being hypoglycemic and tied to a back board after a minor car accident at U of M for 7 hours- Begging for an IV.. I'd been on my way to dinner.. they kept stopping in and asking if I was dizzya nd I'd say yes (because of blood sugar) and then they never took me for x rays- didn't even draw blood for 4 hours at which point they told me they were waiting on blood and a pregnancy test.. thankfully the friend I had the social worker call came and she brought me food and fed me pieces of chocolate and various othr samll things... it was a mess.. the funniest thing about that night (only funny really) was a) they made my then 13 year old foster daughter who I was adopting do a pregnancy test before they'd work on her either.. but hers was done faster up in peds and she was released... and b) that Sherry told them when they came up with the stuff about pregnancy for me, "am I goign to be a father?" she was the only adult to have shared my bed in the prior year- I was a single prospective adoptive parent! ER's are a zoo and I head for smaller local hospitals if I can now for that sort of stuff...

Sorry you had such a rough time at the doc's Michele...that sucks I hate it when docs don't take you seriously. I can totally sympathize, I find as soon as docs find out that I take anti-depressants and have taken anti-anxiety meds, they usually always assume I'm just a headcase and my problems aren't real. It's so annoying!

I really hope you get better treatment from here on out and that you feel better soon!
