Ouch! of Comission for 3 days ?

My worse nightmare came true!

In short, I slipped at the side of a road, sprained my left ankle & abrased my right knee. And it all happened today, a Friday, ie MY SALSA DAY!!

I can normally stand minor sprains & wound, but this time not so, cause I was totally stumped for 2 minutes & almost black out when I tried to stand.

I practically need to sit for more than 5 minutes to regain 'consciousness' before seeking treatment. The best part is the 2 nearby clinics are yet to open.

Thought of using the first aid kit from my office to wash & cover the wound. And
, there are only bandages, swaps & painkillers in the so called first aid kit . Not even a drop of lotion is in the kit. Gonna complaint to the welfare manager next week!

Took a cab to see a Dr and he says no walking allowed for at least 2 or 3 days & definitely no heels!

No walking(plus no heels) = NO DANCING!
Help!! 2 weeks without dancing??

It also means I'll have to sit off my samba class this Sunday.

Oh well! At least I was given 1 day MC(Doc said can give 2 if I'm working tomorrow, but since I don't work Saturday, so no need for MC).

Might as well use the given MC-day for another kind of practice
