Day 15 ~ Fracture

In almost 48 years, I had never broken a bone. For being the first time, it was very unglamorous: stubbing a toe against a table leg. I've never inflicted so much pain to myself at a home accident. The ER visit wasn't any more fun: first the confirmation to have broken the bone; then the fact that it was an ugly fracture and that they needed to try to put it in place, which meant two injections with a big needle. To top it all, the adjustment didn't work and the doctor had to do it again. However, all this pales in comparison with the fact that I will have to stay away from volleyball for a few months.
