Jake's toes have always looked a little, well, funny. Today at the beach, he took a crack at skim boarding and wipedout. He looked down and the fourth little piggy was standing straight up. He calmly limped to Dad to show him the damage. Dad tried to push the fourth little piggy into his proper place and that is when the excruciating pain set in. A doctor was consulted after Dad's medical services were deemed unacceptable. X-rays revealed a fracture at the growth plate and surgery is imminent. Apparently, little piggy needs a pin in order to assure proper alignment. Wee Wee Wee Maybe We Should Run Home. (Just joking, grandparents, don't get all excited)
dang, in the growth plate even. maybe if they weren't so long... will they still function as prehensile?
ReplyDeleteOuch! I've had a broken toe but no surgery required. Of course, you can crack it on a closet door or a skim board. Might as well be having fun!
