Where in the World Isn't Bob Saget?

When you're the leader, you don't have to follow.
Are you OK?
Thank you, yes.

I fell of a step ladder and hurt my knee.
X-rays say no broken bones, but doctor figures ligament damage and a torn meniscus. MRI needs to be ordered if not better in 7-10 days.
Good thing I’m not going to NYC in 36 hours. Oh ... wait.

I am so mad at myself. It never should have happened. Mike will not take the boys without me, so if worse comes to worse, I can get a wheelchair delivered to the hotel.

As of right this moment, I cannot place any weight on my right knee. On the plus side, that’s the same side as my “bad hip”.

We’ll see what tomorrow brings. I can’t stop crying though, because I’m so stupid and I wrecked our trip. 😢

Were you on that ladder wearing flip-flops? Asking for a friend.
The flip flops were not the problem. The unstable ladder was.

In my defence, I would normally have switched to boots (with or without socks) by now, but I can’t put them on because of my hip.

I’m so sorry to hear about your injury. I do hope you feel better soon. Hopefully you can still go on your trip and have fun, it might not be the way you originally planned but it can be an excuse to go again.

OH NO!!! That sounds incredibly painful! And that's the WORST when it happens right before a trip where you are planning to walk a lot! I hope it feels better soon! Did the ladder break or did it wobble and you slipped?

It’s funny how the C-part of R-I-C-E is the least fun.

Rest - I’m good at that.
Ice - Actually feels good.
Elevation - I’ve been doing that for months.
Compression - Don’t like it. Not one bit.

And now I’m done complaining for the night. I promise.

Oh no. :confused: Why do things like this happen at all, let alone before a trip. Sometimes things just happen, and don't be too hard on yourself. I just hope your knee doesn't require any additional follow up, and can maybe heal on its own. Knees do take a while to get better.
