    Sit in a chair at the table to prep veg for a crockpot soup. That will give your family good meals and you can rest. Heal quickly.

    Candy, borrow or rent a knee scooter. I got a fracture in my foot in 2018 which turned into Charcot foot. I was non weight bearing for several months. Knee scooter was a Godsend.

    So sorry you are hurt. Well I guess Cody and Mitch will have to do more. I'm the same way don't like to ask, but there comes a time you just have to let others do

    Reading, tv, crosswords, word search, adult coloring books, embrodery and crafts. I broke my ankle and could not put weight it on for 2 months.These are some of the things I did.

    Candy, You are in my sisterhood. Two weeks ago, the Comcast guy was at my house installing new wiring for internet. I walked up my office steps a few times(2 steps) & in & out of my house (3 steps) a few times. Nothing strenuous. A couple hours after cable guy left, my left foot started hurting. I have had swelling/pain on that foot periodically when I have walked a lot. It would go away in a couple days. This was NOT that. This was on a Monday. Thursday I went to 3 food pantries. Two of them you stayed in your car & drove through. The 3rd one was by appointment so I didn’t have to stand & wait. I could barely walk 10’. I knew something was wrong. Friday went to urgent care & got the xrays. I have a fracture on the 5th metatarsal behind my little toe. Its ½ way up the side of the foot. They gave me this little cheap shoe with 2 velcro straps to walk in & crutches. I’m not doing the crutches. My friend had a “boot” that is the mac daddy of “boots” She is letting me borrow it. It is helping sooooo much. I put it beside the bed & strap up in the morning 1st thing. I also have found that motrin(800mg), along with some gabapentin has pretty much eliminated pain. (I had these on hand) Motrin is the best. Tylenol didn’t touch the pain. I can get around, but I’m not pushing it just yet. They told me these fractures can take 6-8 months to heal. Trust me when I say, I FEEL your pain!!

    I broke my neck and got a brain injury. I worked 3 days. I finally drove myself to the ER (after work) when my head hurt so bad I vomited and my vision went from double to triple. Take care of yourself! You only have 1 body and it needs to last your whole life. I was immobile a long time. I spent months in therapy teaching my eye to retrack and gaining back balance. 4 years later, I still battle migraines and terrible back and neck pain. I listened to audio books. Perhaps you can send cards and notes, or reach out to someone. Can you get a scooter and put your knee on it? I binge watched so much TV. Coloring books for adults may be fun, or needlepoint. I hope you heal quickly. ❤

      @CandanceBrewer  2 месяца назад +2

      I'm so sorry to hear of your injury. That sounds so much harder than what I'm going through. I'm so grateful for all your suggestions. The last two days, I laid in my bed and cut up a bunch of old t shirts into squares (not super even since I was in bed) in an attempt to make a small quilt. I'm thinking I'll try sewing in a couple of days. But the cards and letters are a great idea. Thank you. I'm resting as much as I can and letting Mitch and Codee handle the cooking and other house chores

    I've broken a toe before and I can see it. I can only imagine how bruised that was. Can you walk on your heel? I cooked etc, no stairs in my house thank goodness, but I did it all with the weight on my heel. Or when standing the weight on the inside edge of my foot.

    • @CandanceBrewer
      @CandanceBrewer  2 месяца назад +1

      I can walk it just hurts with every step. I think I'll pre make some easy meals so then Codee and Mitch can handle it easier. The problem is I have a hard time sitting still doing nothing.
