By the GRACE of God...

My foot is NOT (re)broken!

It should be. Every sign pointed to "yes."
I heard the crack. It immediately swelled and started bruising, exactly in the same spot as the (healing) break point.
The pain was (and remains) intense.

Saturday night, I prayed that God heal the break that I knew had occurred.
The pain remains, the swelling remains, and my foot again turns "dead-body blue" when I put it down...
but the x-rays show a bone that continues to heal!

Thank you, Lord!!

Let me reiterate, the pain is... painful. I don't want to use the word excruciating, because I've felt that before, and I know this isn't at the same level, but oh my gosh, does it ever hurt!
Still, I'll take pain over a fresh break any day!
