I've broken both ankles (at least I think it was both, and not the same one twice lol). First time was falling down slippery stairs in the winter. I was home alone at the time... that was before cell phones. Crawled up the stairs into the house and called my sister the ER nurse to come save me. She didn't think it was broken.... she was wrong.
Two years ago I was out on an early morning walk in the neighborhood, which includes a local cemetery. Stepped into a hole with one foot and the other one did a weird twist.... broke it. This was just after 6 am. Thankfully I had my phone with me. Had to call my oldest son and wake him up to come get me and take me to the ER.
Broke my toes numerous times too. I'm a klutz.
