Spring "it's just a sprain, not a break"

It's no surprise to anyone that I fall on and sprain an ankle about once a year. I've injured and re-injured them so many times, there are no ligaments left for balance. I have what is medically known (maybe even recognized) as chronic ankle instability. Despite my balance exercising in Pilates, experts think recurring sprains damage the nerves and prevent your brain from being able to detect how your foot is positioned on the ground. Anyway, that's from the first website that popped up on Google when I searched "Why am I like this?" I had big plans for Spring Break. We were going to take a small road trip to test how the baby does away from home and traveling. We were going to go to the Arboretum every day and sit in the grass and soak up the sun. I was going to ramp up the cardio again since V, miraculously, had some days off with us this week. We went to Oklahoma to visit friends and their new baby. Our baby did great. Our oldest got sick.
