...and then proceeded to walk around on it (with a cane) for two weeks before finally going to the dr yesterday. He SWORE that it was getting better and that it wasn't broken. Ummm....wrong. Broken. He's getting a referral to an orthopedist today. Fortunately, the bone isn't displaced, so he won't need surgery.
How does someone walk around with a broken foot for two weeks???
Just to add a little context...He broke it as we were leaving our house to take difficult child to the psychiatrist. The psychiatrist had a last minute cancellation and we were thrilled to get in (2 days before Christmas), so there was no way we were stopping for a broken foot at that point. But, really, two weeks???
