I heard a pop then...

... I stopped and fell to the ground. That popping sound was my left ankle and it happened on September 13, 2008. I know its been like two months but I just havent gotten around to blogging it. Well anyways it happened at my first softball game of the season, before the game started. We were running back from the bathrooms because we had to change into our uniforms. I was about 15 feet away from the softball field and I triped on my cleet, my ankle rolled and POP!!!!!!! I stoped imediatly and dropped to the ground holding my ankle and crying. I walked the pain off like my coach told me to it eventually wore off. I played through that whole game with only a tiny bit of pain when I ran. On our way home I looked at my ankle and it looked rather large and when I pulled off my sock it was a dreadful sight for my ankle was swollen, ew, ew,ew. Sorry I got a little poetic there but it was pretty swollen. That next day I didn't go to church because I couldn't walk. Then on Monday I didn't go to school for the same reason and my mom took me to the Podiatrists office. She took X-rays and nothing was torn, thankfully, but I had a major sprain. I had to where this ugly air brace to keep it from turning. It eventualy bruised my huge swollen foot and the bruises worked their way up the back of my leg. It even started to bruise in my toe area. Now my ankle is some what healed but the actuall bone is still bigger than my other ankle bone.

Now
