It's broken!

We've had our first trampoline catastrophe. After standing in the kitchen for 6 hours today making 13 dozen cookies for a big cookie order, Matti went outside to have fun for a minute by jumping on the trampoline. And she broke her ankle. Poor thing. She and Doug are in the ER right now. She's had an X-ray, and the big bone that jets out on the outside of the ankle is sheared right in two. But it doesn't look like it shattered. They are waiting on an orthopedic surgeon right now--she may need a screw in it. Darn it!

Oh, that's so sad! I hope she isn't in too much pain. Tell her we hope she feels better soon. --Did you have to finish the cookies or was she already done?

Oh no! Poor Matti, that is awful. I hope she got some good painkillers to go.

I'm soooo sorry! Poor Matti. Will she have to be off it for a long time?
