Christopher, Christopher, Christopher..........

Christopher had an accident at school during volleyball practice this morning. He rolled his ankle and then someone landed on it.

We went to the Dr. and then for an x-ray, and it looks like he's broken the 5th metatarsal bone in his foot just anterior to the ankle bone.

What this means is:

1) He has to wear the robo boot for about 4-6 weeks
2) X-Ray in 2 weeks
3) Physio after that for a number of weeks
4) No soccer try outs, no soccer tournament this weekend, and no hockey for 6 weeks.

He's resting now and playing Mario Kart on the Wii.

Back to school tomorrow with crutches for a week, and then he can put some weight on it.

He's obviously upset that he'll miss all his sports.....but if he doesn't listen to the Dr's orders he'll be out for much longer.

Pray that time passes quickly for him.

Thanks,

Maria
