Hello @outlander
Thank you for your reply and pleased to hear that you did not feel overwhelmed or suffocated by my trying to offer support.
It is a relief when we have a nook that we can go to when overtired; in too much pain; sleep deprived; fed up and plain bored.....
It is hard to slow down and rest with foot up when you are active....
Years ago I sprained my ankle on both sides by tripping over a hose pipe in my back garden at night...
My own fault for not putting it away earlier....I left it out to finish off watering later when cooler.....
wrong move.....
Had heaps of physiotherapy sessions which did help;stretch exercises gently and a walking stick to help me hobble along trying to keep the weight off of that foot.
I had to have my foot elevated....
I had an extra chair set up at work where I then had to twist to the right to use the desktop computer...answer the phones and attempt to grab files...Was difficult but I got through it as one does...
Extremely tiring, pain, boredom, lethargy and no sleep...
Yours is bruising so will settle slowly especially internal bruising...it will probably change colours as inner bruising begins to surface...you have some muscular bruising and was it tendon as well?
You will come to a stage when you can look back and tell yourself wow I did all of that whilst keeping my foot up!
happy distracting
Sophia 💛sunshine for everyday xx
