Monson ankle miracle?

 Monson hurt his left ankle the end of June.  He was playing church basketball and went out to save a ball and twisted his ankle and instant pain.  His ankle swole up immediately.  He was wearing ankle braces since 8th grade when he first had ankle issues.  He went to the doctors and they took an X-ray and told him his Achilles was partially torn along with other 1/2 torn tendons and he needed to stay off of it for 4 weeks..then they would x ray again and see if surgery was needed.  This was so sad for him.  He got a scooter and tried to be a good sport about it, plus it really hurt.   

Monson had two big trips in July-- 1 week in Bear Lake and then 2 1/2 weeks in upstate Michigan...he would have to do all of this now with zero weight on his ankle...on a scooter..kind of helpless for many things including carrying suitcases, packing, going up and down stairs etc..   He's not able to get in the lakes  ( easily, cuz of sand) and was just so disappointed.  Wayne got him a peg leg to wear instead of the scooter halfway through the Bearlake vacation..and Monson adapted to that perfectly-- which helped him go up and down stairs easier and not have to wait for people to help him.  

This helped him a little, but still there was so much he couldn't do.

Monson got home and went back to the doctors the beginning of August.  The doc was surprised his ankle was still so swollen and ordered an MRI-- looking toward surgery for sure.  The MRI happened and all that was wrong was a small tear in one tendon and a bit of arthritis. No surgery. WHAT!?!  Did Monson even have to go through this "no walking trauma" all of JULY and be so miserable....or did a miracle healing take place?  

I say tell the Miracle healing story.  It's healthier and keeps you in a place of gratitude and wonder instead of anger and being ticked off at the doctor for not taking an MRI sooner. 

Monson is doing physical therapy now for 6 weeks.  

We are the stories we tell....so tell a good one.
