I fell...

I posted on facebook that I fell and hurt my ankles and knee.
Here is the reply I got.

Tony:
sledding accident?

Shannen:
walking accident... lol sadly it is the truth.

Tony:
if you need one of those walkers with tennis balls to get you through rehab, I may be able to get one from my granny. LOL just kidding

So, now that I haven't been able to go to the bathroom without help, I'm thinking that walker would be nice. In all honesty.. I have been thinking. Maybe this happened as a way for me to think about my brother and keep him in my prayers more often.

Here I am, stuck in my chair, not able to walk. All I did was twist my ankles and knee. It's so little when I think about Rob, but I am thinking of how much this simple thing has/is effecting our life. I can't walk, so I can't really drive. Adam can't take the day off tomorrow... so how do I get the kids to school, and myself to the doctor? The thing is, my guess is that it is simply sprains and maybe pulled muscle. Rob has more broken bones than I want to think about, a muscle/tissue graft, he will be having a skin graft... how can I really complain?

I guess it just all gets put into perspective...

My praise for today is that Rob is almost finished with all of his surgeries. He only has one more to go in the near future.
