THREE! Yes, I am on my third cast this week - and it's only Thursday! Monday morning my very wonderful cast cover made specifically for showering in got a very small hole - smaller than a pencil eraser. And in that very small hole, water poured in and soaked my cast! After spending a day with a blow dryer attached to my toes, I decided maybe I should call the doctor on Tuesday and see if there was something else I should be trying. I called the doctor and the doctor said, "New cast. Can you be here at 1?" I said, "Sure". Know that it was 11:58 a.m. and I can't drive. But in only three (see a theme going through here?) phone calls, I had a driver and three hours later, I was home with my new hot green cast - that was too short in the toes, probably by about 3 centimeters - just short enough to make me rock when I walked and throw my hip off. So I called the doctor about 8 p.m. Tuesday night and got a call back Wednesday morning. If I could come in on Thursday morning, they would put on a new cast AND take my stitches out and I wouldn't have to come back for five more weeks! Note: new word - five. Double that and you'll see I had ten stitches taken out and a new hot green cast (it is Christmas!) put on! The moral of the story: God IS in control! Glory!
