Last night while running down the stairs I fell and broke my big toe and my little toe on my left foot. Don't ask me how, but the three in the middle are fine. It was one of those moments that happen in slow motion and immediately afterward it's so rediculous, funny, and painful that you are laughing at yourself for something so stupid and crying at the same time from the pain. Even the Doctor and the Nurse at the Doctors office were laughing at me. Leave it to me!
Dog was downstairs barking and acting a fool (which she doesn't normally do in the house), so I was in a hurry to investigate what was going on downstairs. All day today I've been telling my dog it's her fault, but I don't think she cares much.
but it gave him total relief. After that his toenail fell off I haven't looked at it since
This reminds me of the time my daughter pulled a pot out and dropped it on my husbands big toe. He had the look on his face like he was screaming and nothing came out. Two weeks later he heated up a safety pin and burned a hole in his toenail to relieve the pressure in his toe that had been excrusiating (sp) the past two weeks and I thought just the thought of it was gonna make me

Sewed it up.
The same pinky toe that I broke last night got messed up last year when the dog decided to bolt past me in the hallway and I slammed it into a door jam while trying to get out of her way. Ended up losing the nail on it and everything. I thought I was going to hurl when the nail came out. It was so weird looking without a nail.
Oh BTW,

I know.
...toes SUCK.
I broke my pinky toe 20 some odd years ago and just lived with it, for years. Constantly low level pain and finally got I fixed. I was so effed up they just opened the toe up and took some pliers and cut off the end. *POP*.
Such a relief...!
I hope mine heal without any surgerey! My Doctor was like, "you know what we do for broken toes?" I said, "nothing". He said, "yup, and it's going to hurt for a very long time". I love a Doctor who doesn't sugar coat things. Apparently...Question for ya:
Are you a klutz?
Man, it hurts like hell when you do it!
My orthopedic surgeon loved me... My dad use to joke with him that we sent his kids through college.
I've broken every one at least once...
I got out of a cast after being in one for 8 weeks... was walking to the bathroom at night and walked into the door cracked open and "crunch", broke 3 of them...
The best on was when I slipped in a bathroom on crutches in school, with a cast on my foot and broke all 5!
I'm sorry you had to go through all of that pain, but man I have to feel sorry for your parents too! This reminds me of the time my daughter pulled a pot out and dropped it on my husbands big toe.
