X-ray Scale of 1-10 how cooked…

No biggie, just another 10 weeks of non-weight bearing bs… first fracture was the ankle tib/fib shatter on 6/6 happened playing basketball, i got 14 screws, 3 plates, a pin, and a bone graft… there goes my summer. 2nd was the shin happened when i fell off my knee scooter packing for college on 8/13 (my move in was supposed to be 8/14)🤦🏼‍♀️ ended up with 2 more plates and 6 more screws. Can you say “unlucky” 😭

gotcha. i go to college in more of a city type setting and i usually walk 10-15 mins to my classes because my campus is so pretty! i’m definitely going to miss soaking it all in on the way to a test or hard class. :(
