For those of you who don't know...

Hey. Update on Rachel incase you couldn't get ahold of her. The first day wasn't as bad for her as the second. A lot of the drugs they gave her lasted at least a few hours after she got home. I think she got a little sleep in her own bed and was probably very happy about that.

The second day (yesterday), was a whole hell of a lot worse. I felt really bad for her. Apparently they casted her foot up wrong so that if she bent her knee, it would press down really hard on her sutures. Also, it was continually pinching the top of her foot. They wrapped it much too tight around the pinkie. She spent hours laying on the floor and crying. Poor thing.

Today we went down to the doctor's office and they removed the cast. Dude, that suture is ugly!! I took a picture of it. It's just the taste of the family, ya know? You could see where her cast was on previously because she had a light bruise all around her toes. It was weird because it was all straight across and everything. Anyway, they put on a new one and she's doing a lot better now. Last I saw she went to sleep and I'm not sure if she got up yet or not.

So, that's the update!

Crappy doctors! I'm glad they fixed the cast. Geeze, you would think they do these things enough to get it right the first time!

...Cake sounds good.
