Hi, hope you are all as well is as possible, I have been helping Malcolm to sort out his dad's house today, I took a step backwards and felt a really sharp pain in my right ankle, despite resting it and putting a bag of peas on it, the pain continues. Malcolm, against my better judgement, decided to call an ambulance, they took me to Wythenshawe hospital, a delightful 4 hours in casualty, the x-ray showed a soft tissue injury.

So here I am can barely walk again, can anything else happen? I think this year has been the worst ever love Jaspercatxx

    You are in the wars. Can't do things by halves. Take care and put plenty of ice on it.
