Well I got xrays and will have the results tomorrow. Feels better today. Still really sore. Ginny watched the xrays and didn't see any obvious breaks so it might just be a real bad bone bruise. They told me that takes a while to go away. I was able to walk in with Ginny on one arm and my cane in the other but the way these legs work there is no pressure on the end of your stump so it's possible that I just bruised the end of my tibia really bad. The swelling was better today too. When I went down I hit the end of my stump real hard and all that is there is the tibia where they cut it off. Will find out for sure tomorrow.
Well, looks like first reports are good, and hopefully the final verdict will be just a bad bone bruise..bad enough, though!

Well, still wishing you the best and that nothing serious shows up on the X-rays.

I did not comment on wasting money on the SB. I just do not care for spectator sports. Playing them is fine. I have no heroes.
The bread and circuses thing is keep the masses occupied on things other than they what they should focus on like corrupt government and such.

But even the most aware and dedicated must take a break sometime!

Glad you got the x-ray and that it's at least feeling a bit better today. Getting it checked out not only tells you what's wrong, but what isn't wrong too and now you won't have to wonder. It's a good thing you've got your new legs now while this heals, in fact, might even feel faster since you're not putting pressure directly on the end. Jeez, we're going have wrap you and Matt in one of those bubble wrap things!
