I'm going to live...

I'd post pictures to prove it but you may never come back to read my blog again.
I tripped and fell onto a log 9 days ago and I've just begun to believe my leg won't fall off.  Nasty gouges and bruises all over my shin and calf muscle and some infection that has  given up the fight with my antibiotics and Vetricyn spray :)  Yes, if it works for horses it will work for me.
So altho my leg looks like a beautiful lake trout, the pain subsides daily, the throbbing has gone by the way side leaving only the occasional shooting pain in areas where healing is taking place.
Next time I get hurt I hope I can remember how much I always suffer the week following an injury, and ask for help!  X-rays, painkillers, bandages, antibiotics, splints, neck braces.....they make them for a reason!
