Good things about my splint

I'm so happy to have this splint instead of a cast. Let me count the ways:
  1. it's ok if it gets a little wet, so i don't have to be as careful in the rain/showering etc.
  2. it smaller than a cast, so i can wear most of my normal pants again
  3. it's more comfortable
  4. i can take it off, wash, lotion, apply heat, and massage
I almost fell yesterday, it was really terrible. I was getting my folder for today's class and I lost my balance. I actually hopped around for almost a minute trying to get my crutches back under me and stable, and I finally made it to the tv and steadied myself on it. I was shaking for about 10 minutes afterward. But it also occurred to me that it probably would have looked really humorous to anyone watching, almost like something out of a movie like Home Alone. haha I can laugh because I didn't actually fall, but it was really scary.
