We went for a drive today to Genoa Falls and then to Eden. At Genoa Falls, on about the 2nd or 3rd step down I twisted my ankle and sprained something. It hurt for a bit but wasn't too bad. Then we went to Eden and to Nethercote Falls. On going down my foot felt worse but we went down anyway (as I didn't want to miss out and we wouldn't be coming back for a while) with the aid of my husband and walking stick he made for me from a branch and the bandage he had in his car which he used to strap my foot with. When it was time to go back I found that I couldn't put any pressure on my foot without a lot of pain. So my gorgeous husband had to carry me out of the water and onto the bank where he then went looking for another branch for a crutch, and he found one, how clever is he? It was a long and slow journey back up the steep steps and Dave helped me by letting me hold onto him with one arm while I tried to work out the crutch on the other. I am truly grateful for my husband Dave as not only is he strong but he is also very resourceful. Love you darling husband.
