Ashlee's Fractured Foot

Almost a year ago to the day (plus or minus 2 days), Mikayla fractured her foot at school playing soccer.  This year it was Ashlee's turn.  Ashlee was jumping up and down and landed on her foot wrong.  Ashlee does not handle pain well, so we were not sure if it was broke or sprained, so we decided to wait a few days and see if it would get better.  5 days later I decided we should go to the doctor, to have it checked. I did not think it was broke, but wanted the peace of mind.  Well, I was wrong.  It was fractured.  The doctor said if she would have jumped a few more seconds the bone would have been through the skin of her foot! Luckily, she got to wear a boot cast, and did not have to use crutches.
