Sprained Ankle
Daddy got very mad when Eldest Princess sprained her ankle during an outing in 1-Utama over the weekend. We paid RM15 for the entrance to some children’s indoor playground where every child is required to wear a socks at all time for safety and hygiene purposes.
Now, I was educate by my Mom on the danger of wearing socks around house! Who the h*ll would want to wear a socks in the playground for safety reason? I’m not sure if you have been to 1-U (new wing) Starship Galactica. To cut the story short, this is what my daughter told me when I pick her up 3 hours later with a limping leg:
“I was walking up the stairs and a boy push me from behind. I fell. The next thing I know, I have pain on my ankle.”
Well, I’m not trying to turn my blog into some sympathetic piece. All I can say is, accident do happen anytime at anywhere. We are not there with her when the incident happen. We just take her words as it is not wanting to point finger at anybody (tho my biggest suspect now is the SOCKS!).
We seek medical attention using the Eastern way this time. The Practitioner said she had a tear on the ligament which causes swelling. He wrapped some chinese herbs on daughter’s ankle during our first visit. On our 2nd visit, he massaged the ankle to bla, bla, bla untangled the 3 ligaments. And since the swelling is still there, he wrapped the ankle with the same chinese herbs again. Each visit costs us RM48.00. *bye-bye $$$* I hope she will recovered by this weekend cos she had her Taekwondo grading next weekend. She can’t miss the exam cos the next grading will be next year only. But if her ankle can’t recover by then, we really had no choice but to skip her grading, which I hope will not happen.
Well, the other 2 little rascal wants their foot to be photograph too *rolling eye*.

ouch looks painful…eh get the socks with the bintik bintik underneath got grip wan. can do emergency stop!
The Queen says: Kids was on sandal that day without socks. To be able to go in, you must have a socks. No socks nevermind. Buy from them lor. Then they sell you those socks from pasar malam for RM3.90. That one where got bintik. Looks not painful. But when the sinseh urut on it, ouch! You can see daughter’s eye all red liao.Â

Ah, I know this indoor playground. I’ve seen a lot of children playing in there. Socks; it is the culprit because it’s slippery from what I’ve observed. Anyway, accidents happen, I hope she will be fine soon and I know how vital the grading is; used to be a Tae-Kwon-Do student myself.
May she get well soon!
;D

Are you using those stinky Chinese herbs? We use those brown liquid in a bottle with herbs for these kind of injuries. Really stinky. Also have to avoid water. But it works.
Hope she can test. I know how long those waits can be and it may become boring if she cannot get into the next form.
