Wahh, that sounds like a rough time! I would gladly donate my legs if I could, but I don't think that would go through the post well, and they're not exactly in tip-top shape X'D
Thanks for sharing some games despite it all, and I hope you've got some other hobbies to keep you busy :)

Great! Now you can spend whole day playing games and nobody will say wrong thing about it xD
But seriously - good luck with recovery :)
And buy shoes that protect ankle xD

Well I have similar ones, but this impact was just so...I can't find the word. I mean, nothing would have helped, I hit my leg in such a way that nothing would have saved the leg from the impact. Maybe it could be lessened but still, just the way it was. And yeah, I'll play the hell out of my backlog!
Thanks for the support!

That would help - but they would be quite impractical. Anyway - show that backlog who's the boss! And get well!

Sorry to hear about that! At least it isn't a permanent injury (thank goodness!), and while it happening to you at all sucks, at least it didn't happen to you during the time of year when the weather is nice and there are more things to do outdoors!
I hope you have a speedy recovery! Take care!
Merry (belated) Christmas!:)

Give it time, It'll be as good as new.
Meanwhile make plans on what you're gonna do once you're good to go...it'll be sooner than you think

I've already scrapped all the plans and made some new ones to fill up the missed opportunities. Thanks for the support!

Ooh, nasty. But remember, it could have been worse. You can still play on PC or console!
I had my left arm in plaster for 3 weeks many years ago but thankfully the angle was pefect for to me carry on playing counter-strike xD

I had injuries with my arms and hands as well, but I didn't really play then, because it was impossible and I was afraid of making my bones shift or something.

Get well soon! I can relate to the agony of not being able to be active, had my fair share of injuries. And I can understand the frustration and at times depression coming with it. Just try to stay positive and keep in mind that you are still lucky to be able to do all you want once the healing and rehab process is over. In the meantime, make sure to relax and simply take care of your shamepile (or backlog, or whatever else you prefer to call it ;) ). This is the chance to "work" through it a bit. :)

Yeah, I'm glad it's not that serious and not permanent, but it can let me play some games and watch some movies while I'm not that mobile.

Happy belated Christmas (─‿‿─)
You basically became a bear - to rest the winter and go with a bang in the spring.
Use this time to assassinate that backlog and get well for the warm months.
Be strong brother and best wishes for the upcoming year 🍻

Sorry to hear about all the issues you've gone through! If it makes you feel better but why should it ;) I've broken my leg badle when I was getting up from bed... So at least your story has much more suspense ;)
Having metal inside your leg might actually be a better solution. Before the 'getting-up' accident (which put some metal inside my leg as well), I broke my ankle by... sitting on grass yeah, I'm super lucky! That leg was just mended by putting it straight and then getting it all plastered in a hospital. But the leg is now not how it used to be and my 'metal' leg is back to normal. So I hope your leg will be up to jogging after it is all healed up :)
And have some kitties to make you smile :)

That's some great luck, man! I hope you are more careful with from then on! Thank you!

Well, I could climb trees, ladders, balance on a roof (sorta, not exactly) and I would come out unharmed. But bed and grass are treacherous!
Oh, and I'm a female ;)

Ow! This sounds painful. However, it is not so bad. I remember breaking a finger the day before my summer holidays, and I had to have a pin sticking out the end of my finger for six weeks, which meant that I could not get it wet at all (because bacteria could move along the wire and infect the bone, meaning amputation or potentially fatal systemic infection), so I had to cancel my plans for the beach. I felt very hard done by and sorry for myself until I was in the surgeon's waiting room sitting next to a young guy, maybe 17 or 18 years old with a horrific hand injury. It looked like his hand had been crushed in some industrial machinery because his fingers were all stumps of different lengths and shapes. Perhaps still in shock or not recognizing the significance of his injury, he was reassuring his mother, who was really upset. This put my problems in perspective and after this, I didn't feel so bad about having one summer where I couldn't do what I wanted. I knew that I would recover from my injury, but this young man's life was changed forever. Anyway, try to make to best of your situation, and remember that things would have been a lot different if you had fallen in front of a bus or something.

Yeah, it could be worse and I remember even in this clinic where I was there were so many people with other injuries that make my injury look like nothing.

Ouch, not good! I really hope your leg heals properly! ><

I do so too, I live in constant fear of being put through some hospital stuff again (not really, because I was told it has to be okay from now on and I would probably feel something if it was bad at any point).

Sorry to hear that, one accident that seems trivial lead to big difference in lifestyle...
Hope you have speedy recovery and thanks for sharing with us ^^ Keep positive!

Hi! I'm usually not active on forums here and everything, but I just wanted to make some giveaways of games about my favourite character and share a little story of what happened to me just this month alongside the GAs.
First of all, the GAs: clicc here to find out
While I'm not that active here, I'm very active in real life, although I'm not that fit and all, I just like to jog sometimes, I rarely go anywhere by bus or by tram, I always go on foot wherever I go, that is somewhat my attitude. And since I was little I loved Sonic the Hedgehog, who is also an active guy. I guess it was one of the inspirations for me or something. There is a Sonic bundle open now, that's why I'm making this post and a couple of giveaways.
So I was just walking home as usual in the beginning of December trying to be careful as hell not to fall (it's very slippery in November and December where I live, because of the snow melting and freezing again because of the weather being half-autumn and half-winter), but I never noticed this one curb, which got really badly frozen, which I couldn't see since it was so dark. As I was just getting of a separate pathway in the street, I stepped on the curb by accident and my foot immediately slid off of it. And I suppose as it was sliding off the curb, it left my ankle sort of vulnerable for the impact. And that's exactly what happened: I hit the curb with my ankle really hard after that slip and I'm a tall and quite heavy guy. I thought it was just a slip, but that ankle started to hurt badly. Then I thought I sort of stretched something in my ankle and my GF, who was with me thought the same thing seeing how I fell. Some woman in the street was kind to call an ambulance and the guys there said I broke my ankle which wasn't all that bad. They took me to a hospital like 15 km from the city, and the doctor there said my bone was not only fractured, but also shifted or displaced. And that's why my foot was displaced as well. They fixed it and put the whole leg below my knee in a cast and said that if it turns out okay in a week, than it'll take only like 6 weeks to recover. So I got home and had to stay in bed all the time, I couldn't move so that there was less of a chance it was not okay for my bones.
A week later the doctor in another hospital said it was quite okay, only the next day he called me and said that I had to go for a surgery, it appeared my foot had no way of going back to its original position naturally and the bones would heal displaced altogether, which was not good. I went to the hospital and sort of applied for this operation, but there were so many patients it took them a week before they could tell me when the operation would take place. So I stayed there for like 2 weeks. And now I'm home after I've been through the whole of it, and now I have this metal thing holding my fractured bone together inside of my leg, and it's alright now, but I can't walk normally for another 2-3 months + this December already.
So I went from being this always-ready-to-go guy to almost a cripple who can't walk, which made me sort of depressed and I'm only now starting to get over it. I'm not trying to seek attention and pity here, I just figured it would make me a bit happy to share some Sonic games, which I love, with the community. And since I'm sharing something (games) with you, I decided I could get it out of my system and share another thing, this story, alongside with it.
I'm really grateful to everyone who has made it to this point and read the whole post!
Happy holidays everyone and Merry Christmas! (Eve) (depending on where you are and when you read this)
