Broken Fibula by Ankle, Shattered Rear Glass
I had the joy of rolling over my ankle on Thursday while walking at breakneck speed in dress shoes to an interview.
Caught my toe on the sidewalk, folded my ankle underneath me and went down.
Had to walk another 1.5 blocks on my broken ankle to get to the interview.
No I didn't get the job., just a broken fibula and likely ligament damage.
**** me.
That was after backing into the edge of my mailbox and shattering my rear window in my 97 SC2. You don't want to know how expensive that is to replace.

Just got my auto ins renewal policy and noticed that, contrary to my memory, I had removed only the collision coverage -- the comprehensive is still there!!!!! So my back glass should be covered !! -$250 ded
Anlke slowly healing but the change in swelling elevated vs hobbling around for 5 min is insane..
I landed so hard on my foot that the imprint of the upper edge of my dress shoe bruised my foot from 1/2 way back on one side, all the way around the back, and 1/2 the way up the other side

Quit your whining, Candy ***. My wife had her ankle replaced and she hasn't shed one tear about it. She bitches about it hurting every day, but she ain't crying about it. If you didn't want the job, you should have just canceled the interview. Love ya, buddy!

One post is whining? I don't remember saying I'm crying. And your wife gets to take controlled substances for the pain.

Well, she had done several "improvements" in order to sell the house. It appears that all she did was have someone cover up a multitude of problems. No recourse now, for us, as it's been over a year since we purchased it. I just have to fix what I can, when I can and live with it. Such is life. What's your recovery time going to be on your ankle? Are you keeping it elevated and icing it? Gotta suck because I know there's some work you were wanting to do to your Saturn. What about the rear windshield?

Been icing and elevating like a fiend. Icing seems to have lost its use but still elevating.
Swelling down some. Been 2 weeks. Fracture was not displaced and broken bone ends stayed very close together. Every time I go from elevated to foot on the floor, I can feel the rush of (I assume) blood/etc filling into my foot. As my blood pressure rises, it swells more and more and is excruciatingly painful as it puts pressure on the weak spots, bruises, damaged tissue, etc. Must be alot of damaged blood vessels as the only thing I can think of that would swell that fast would be blood leaking out of damaged arteries.
I got permission to walk on it in my boot based on the extent of healing of the bone.
Hurts but surprisingly not too bad. Too much is bad.
Recovery time? I'll call it recovered when I can put a normal shoe on it 5 min after I stand up first thing in the morning.
Don't think there's a time limit on failure to disclose.
Also, check if your homeowner's policy covers "undiscovered pre existing" stuff.
