averagedawg, as fate would have it, I had a call from my #1 friend from Grayson, Georgia this past week. Anyway, he was attending a convention in Orlando and wanted my wife and I to meet him for dinner and drinks. Did that, and to my surprise when we arrived at the Marriott, my friend comes across the main entrance with a huge limp, taking baby steps. Seems as if my friend had fallen off of a ladder and did the same thing you did. He however did not do as much damage as you did. He only required one pin although his foot was at 90 degrees to his leg when he was taken to the hospital. I related to him that I have a internet friend that did the same thing and required many more pins and a long time in the operating room. Here I go again, main reason for this was to say, take it easy and get well. Red cast eh, how cool!
