I I broke my foot won't heal for 8-10 weeks. I get repeat x-Ray in 2 weeks to see if it is healing or need surgery. so yea this could be worse it could be the middle of a winter storm and it's not or it could have happened at the beginning of the summer and it's not or it could happen just before my Disney trip in April and I should be healed by then. But I'm angry and Mad and I feel alone and I'm not people of been there. It is hard for me to ask for help I'm on crushes and not weight bearing. Anyone else experience the emotion that goes with this? It is all new to me I've never broken anything before and I've always been healthy.
I'm sorry for your troubles and hope you're feeling better.
When something like this happens, you can actually go through a grieving process. You grieve the loss of your [perceived] health and functionality; you recognize, perhaps for the first time, your own vulnerability, and even mortality. It can be a shocker, because you might not expect to grieve over something like this. But if you think about it, you've probably experienced many of the emotions that go with a loss: shock, denial, anger, bargaining, and eventual acceptance, etc. They can go back and forth and there's no set time limit. So think of it that way and you'll understand why you've felt the way you have.
The good news, besides it being something that will HEAL
is that you have a whole new perspective now on how difficult it can be to be sick or incapacitated. This gives you an opportunity, even if it's down the road, to maybe think about helping others in a similar predicament; maybe pay forward some of the help that you've received, somehow. Good luck with your continued healing.
Hope it heals without surgery..
