[QUOTE="Star*, post: 331432, member: 4964"] Well......I am so sorry he did this but....and not to side with him (so sorry here). I kicked a maul out of a pine stump --rather I attempted to so and broke my right foot. This was karate kid meets iron will and bones splintered. This next part is NOT for the squeemish. I "set" my own foot by putting it in the door jam and slamming it shut on my foot with a board next to the instep. Then I wrapped it in an ace wrap, took 2 tylenol and walked on it. Limped is a better word. Three weeks later I stepped on a ladder, and broke the other one. I weighted nearly 300 lbs and according to the doctor the foot was in the wrong place at the wrong time under tremendous pressure and just popped. They Xrayed both feet. He said I did a dandy job setting the other foot. (Score one for the poor person) It was healing nicely believe it or not. Could not believe what I did to reset the bones but....that's what being poor will do. So don't be too rough on your hubby - if the bones (which I learned are really sticky) have already started to heal? They may have to rebreak the healed parts to reset them correctly and THAT is painful. I figured you were going to tell us he busted his foot off .....in a difficult child behind. lol Take care! Hugs & Earplugs for all the "Ohhhhh Ewwwww" you shall possibly endure in the coming weeks. Poor you! Star [/QUOTE]
