So I have had a lot of firsts in Cape Town. My first car, my first apartment, and now my first broken bone. I suppose it only seems fitting.
It was of course the result of an epic adventure and fabulous story: after literally wandering all around Observatory barefoot: over bridges, fences, and highways, I was running up a very flat and very paved road. I tripped trying to catch a frisbee and made some unhappy contact between my foot and the ground. I did catch the frisbee, but I am now headed to see an orthopaedic surgeon tomorrow morning.
I have yet to come up with an optimistic way of describing my experience with the hospital today (I will!), however, I did appreciate how kind the people I encountered were to me. So, another first and so many more to look forward to, but hopefully the others will not be quite this painful.
thank God you caught the frisbee! Miss and love you Sarah! Heal well and soon.
