We took our dogs out for a walk it’s been slushy out from a recent wet snow we had and living on a lake the ground has a slight pitch to it from natural drainage. Add a slight dip in the grass and mud under the slush and it’s tricky if you hit the wrong spot. She got lazy and had on the wrong shoes when the right leg went forward and the left leg ended up under her.

Slight line fracture of the left ankle but it could have been way worse she had a knee replacement I was concerned that would come apart or tear some ligaments but just the ankle. She just can’t do those cheerleading moves at 70 not that she could before but she’s getting around with a boot now and still has a walker from her knee replacements.

Tough old girl she got lucky this time.

Hope she heals up fast. Glad it wasn't worse.

We call this Orchestra Weather.....If you don't C Sharp You gonna B Flat....lol

Hopefully she heals up quickly.

Sorry to hear, sending prayers for her rapid healing!

Sorry to hear that Jerry, hope she heals up fast.

Thoughts and prayers for speedy recovery…

"had on the wrong shoes"


Crocs?

Prayers for Your Wife

Hope it heals fast. Mine couple years ago required surgery. No trouble at all now but it took awhile.

Hope she gets better. Ankle fractures are no fun.

I wish her a full recovery. You might be busier with extra duty's not Law.

How far out from her knee replacement is she and did they give you an estimate on healing time on the ankle?

Sounds like she is a very lucky unlucky lady. Hopefully her pain and discomfort during healing is minimal. Sounds like she is a go getter and you may have a hard time slowing her down long enough to heal properly.

Been very busy the new pup was keeping on my toes now this. I’ve not finished a hot cup of coffee foe weeks now.

Knee was done a few years ago it held up well.

Snow, slush and mud and she had deck shoes on with the frost out it’s pretty slippery.

Don’t let her overdo it. Wives are a stubborn lot and she won’t want anybody waiting on her. She won’t ever heal if she don’t sit still for a bit!

Heck regardless of shoes that stuff is slick and I hit the ground at least once this year becuse.of it. Just got luck how I landed and I still bounce more than break.

I put ice cleats on her shoes this winter but it was nice last week so she took them off. I slid close to that spot last week myself did the one arm windmill to stay on my feet. With the slush you can't see what's under the next step. She stubborn i expect she will be walking on the boot next week a tough old farm girl.

Glad it wasn't worse.

Prayers sent for a fast recovery.
