Jared's Broken Ankle






And now, for the much awaited pictures of Jared's broken ankle! These shots were taken this last Tuesday, a week and one day after Jared broke his ankle playing basketball. Looks painful, doesn't it? The swell was still too much for the permanent cast to be put on, so Jared has a splint on right now. We will go in this Tueday again to see if the swelling has reduced enough for the cast. That should be on anywhere from 8 to 12 weeks. Poor guy! He's becoming the king of mega tall crutches! I told him that the one advantage that I see in this situation is that his calves have finally become the same size as mine. My self-image has greatly improved.

  2. That looks like it is really painful, Jared. I hope it heals as quickly as possible and that the pain gets less.
