6. My daugher had a hairline fracture atop her foot...

She fell running through the house a week before competing in a national ice skating competition. The doctor missed the fracture in the x-ray and said it was just a bruise; he told us to let her compete and not have her miss this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

She landed thrown jumps in pair skating as well as double jumps on her own ,in a very sturdy and supportive skate.

She came home in worse pain, so we went to an orthopedist who was going to order an MRI, but then looked at the original xray and spotted the fracture.

They put her in a walking boot and thankfully she was totally fine in just 3 weeks, though she was a young teen at the time.

I hope Biden has a full recovery, too!

Get well soon Mr. President-elect! CountAllVotes Nov 2020 #1
