January Photos (Page 2)
David went with a group of Titchie boys on a hike in Malawa (about 1 hour from here) and while on that hike, he slipped and twisted his leg. The resulting visit to the Kijabe hospital casualty room (ER) and the x-rays showed he broke his fibula (the smaller bone in the lower leg). His hiking boots kept him from breaking his ankle (a far worse injury). He should be fine in about 4-6 weeks.
David's "broken leg" story:
While at the river I did manage to get down to the water and sit on a rock with my foot in the cool water, which felt nice. I broke my leg at noon, and hobbled back to the vehicles, which took about 20 minutes (I’m telling you these details now, because when I tell this story as an old man, it will probably include being attacked by lions and fighting them off on one leg and having to cross 3 gorges and climb a 100 foot cliff, but none of that really happened). It was about five o’clock when I made it to the hospital and got the x-ray.
