Todd’s foot, casted for the next 6 weeks:
The real kicker is that he also injured both wrists so walking on crutches and picking up Sam are difficult. I’m sure this will all make for a funny story some time in the future, but it’s still scary at the moment. Todd was in the back of a truck when someone drove it away (not knowing he was there) and he fell out the back. It could have been much worse.
We’re still digesting all the many ways this is impacting our lives. We’re scrambling to figure out how we can both manage work and Sam, particularly next week since we don’t have much time to plan.

who has a pickup truck in NY? I don’t remember seeing many of those!
It was a UHaul, and the driver was a UHaul employee–which opens up a different can of worms.
Alex said he would be more than happy to come up there to help with Sam – as soon as he can find somebody to take his science test….
What a coincidence….I’m really good at science!
Oh, wow. That stinks. Are his wrists in casts, too? I guess it is time for Sam to get more independent. He just has to walk and not be carried. Rosie was right around his age when I had Reed–she had to grow up quickly. I’m sure Sam will rise to the occasion. Hope Todd feels better soon.
For now the wrists are in braces but the ortho recommended an MRI on one wrist next week.
Oh no…. I’m so sorry that this happened. I hope you are feeling better soon Todd and I wish I could be there to help you guys! I’m sure it has to be really frustrating for all of you. You will be in my thoughts and prayers for the next 6 weeks and beyond! My advice would be to have lots of good movies and books on hand (for you as well as for Sam…) Love, Katie
Get well soon!!!! I hope you feel better!
