| From Broken Ankle |
Where do we start? We noticed that Charlie had been limping and favoring his left leg since about the beginning of the month. He complained about his toe, so we went to the podiatrist and checked for ingrown nails, we even bought new shoes. He stopped walking altogether for a span of a few days that next week and we went to urgent care where they said it was sprained. Well on Monday we found out after another round of x-rays and a visit to the pediatrician that Charlie has two fractures one at the base of his tibia and the other at the base of his fibula near his ankle. The doctor said it appeared that the fractures were older and on their way towards healing. Charlie got a very cool red walking cast and only has to wear it for a few weeks. It was quite the tiring and traumatic experience both for Charlie and Mommy and Daddy!
As promised I took a few pictures of Charlie in his cast. Click the image above to view the images on the Picassa site.
