Broken concrete and RICE!!

Wow, I’m sad! Yesterday, I tripped over a pile of broken concrete in my backyard and twisted my ankle!! Aside from that, I was stabbed by all these thorns that I fell on, so my hands were bleeding!! My ankle wasn’t so bad yesterday, but I woke up today and it hurts!! Ouch!! My ankle is swollen and I can’t walk on it!! This really sucks! Not just any ankle either, its my driving ankle…well, my ankle doesn’t drive, but it is my right foot, which means I can’t drive until all is well! So, hopefully, it isn’t that bad, and I will be fine by tomorrow!! I hope so!! Ok, my white blood cells need to work overtime today..no lunch breaks. Wait, do white blood cells have anything to do with healing wounds, or do they just protect your immune system? I am sure that is a stupid question, so as soon as I find the answer, I will erase that! LoL, ok, back to the ice!
P.S. This is no laughing matter!!
P.P.S. Wait, now that I think about it….don’t white blood cells only attack bodily infections…So, all I can really do is ice it and elevate it above my heart, and rest. OH YA!! RICE! Ha, I learned that in Health. (Rest, Ice, Compression, Elevation!!) I’m smart!
