Our day at the lake started off with what probably should have been a trip to the hospital for my mother-in-law; when a mattress coil punctured her foot while in the water. At the time it just looked like a big gaping hole in the top of her foot, but looking at it today it's good that she's got a doctor appointment tomorrow morning. She no longer had an ankle, her foot is so swollen and the redness has started to move up her leg. We keep teasing her and giving her some quick fix solutions such as amputation or letting me squeeze on the wound to drain the fluid. Both of which she immediately shot down without a moments hesitation. We were also giving her some some suggestions on how to liven up her "how did that happen" story for her co-workers. Some of which include: Utah Lake Sharks and Chinese spiders. Again I don't think she was to thrilled about our making light of her pain.
In all seriousness we do feel bad for you Julie and hope that your foot gets feeling better soon.

Thanks for the well wishes! Three shots today, one tomorrow and a round of oral antibiotics with 4 times daily soaking in warm epsom salt water should do the trick. But the doc thinks I'll still be limping for awhile.
