Now this is just weird: in the past few weeks, three of my women friends have seriously injured their feet. One woman broke her foot when she missed a step in the dimly lit basement while she was helping somebody move house. She's now in a walking boot and can't participate in a breast-cancer walk she was looking forward to.
Another's foot is quite likely broken from an equestrian mishap, but we'll never know for sure: she won't go to the doctor because it's the middle of fox-hunting season and a cast wouldn't fit into her riding boot.
The third, frankly, I'm a little skeptical about. She said it was swollen and lumpy, the pain had kept her awake, and she wasn't at all sure she would be able to make it through a full set of tennis. That was before she took the first three games off me.
