Patrick was up on a 12 ft ladder at the church Sunday afternoon. He lost his balance and instead of falling into the chairs (and possibly hitting his head, etc.), he jumped back. He was about eight feet up and wearing boots . . . not the best shock absorbers. Thankfully, he rolled to the left when he landed. This prevented him from breaking his back and/or shattering his heels. But he has a small fracture in his right heel and quite a few small breaks in his left foot. So he's hobbling around on crutches. Which is no easy task considering he has no use of his left foot and limited use of his right foot. Still I keep reminding myself that this could've been much, much worse.
We have a podiatrist appointment on Thursday to find out what the next four to six weeks will look like. Until then . . .
