Well, I went to the doctor and guess what? I no longer have fishing twine holding my ankle together.

Whoopie!

The bad news is that my leg hairs are now about two inches long. It’s like I am now part wolverine or something. Who knew having an ace bandage on your leg for a month would be the equivalent of leg Rogaine?

The doctor says I am healing nicely. I asked him if “nicely” meant that I will be able to use my left leg soon. He did the backwards math from when the surgery was and informed me I still had another two or three weeks to go.  I asked Mr. Killjoy if I was at least allowed to get my ankle wet now that the stitches were out. He studied at my ankle then looked back at me and asked how long my baths usually are. Apparently 15 – 20 minutes is the wrong answer because he informed me I had to wait another week. Which? Come on now, who takes a bath in less than 15 minutes? Certainly not people with broken appendages!

Grrr!

So I guess I need to wait another week. At my next appointment they are going to do an ultrasound to see how the healing of my ligaments is progressing. Please keep your fingers crossed because, who knows. By then I could have another inch of leg hair and be that much closer to turning into a shewolf. 

I suppose I just need to remind myself to be patient. I mean I dowant it to heal right after all. Plus, god invented razors for a reason, right?
