Not in my plans

Last night I missed the last stair, fell, and broke my ankle (all three ankle bones). Spent the evening in the ER, where they tried 2 times to get the bones back in place, under sedation, but were unsuccessful.  The surgeon then took me to surgery and did the procedure under general anesthesia and with x- ray assistance.  It felt a lot better when I came to. I had to stay overnight and I'm still waiting for a CT scan before I go home. I have to go see another surgeon on Monday and will need further surgery when the swelling has subsided. I have to be non-weightbearing for probably two months.  It's going to be a challenge.
