Lil Miss Beanie has fractured her leg!


Beanie with Fractured Leg
Originally uploaded by metaphoric.
The lil miss fractured her leg recently in a series of unfortunate events. Well, unfortunately silly, that is.

A doctor's x-ray last Saturday recently confirmed that the injury was indeed a fracture around the joint (equivalent of the knee I suppose) on the right hind leg. LMB is now hobbling around with a rather cumbersome bandage cast on her leg and a Elizabethan collar to avoid her chewing the bandages off like a happy mummy.

How did she come about this state of affairs? Well, she had leaped merrily off the bed in pursuit of a friendly cat recently, thought she could fly and realised, with the sharp pangs that realization usually comes with, that she was sorely mistaken. By that time, the hind leg had already hit ground zero.

She is recuperating well with adequate bedrest and will be prevented from hobbling around on all 3's (which she can do pretty well) for the time being.
