I had a fun, new adventure last week.
I was leaving the elementary school after setting up PTA stuff for registration. When we got to the car, my two-year-old wanted to be put down. I twisted as I did so, and heard a pop. Right in my ribcage.
Yep, I sprained a rib. I had no idea one could sprain a rib, but I did! Yes!
I decided to go to a doctor since it was swelling. I learned that medical professionals used to wrap up sprained ribs, but then patients were dying of pneumonia because they couldn't breath deeply enough to clear out their lungs. That was interesting.
As long as I keep my left arm at my side, I'm pretty good. So here's to six months of healing and to a six week hiatus from karate.
