Wow. Thank all of you for your prayers-it does work! I've felt them.
I got to work about 7 AM this morning and while it isn't terribly busy, there was a few skids of work waiting to go out.
We are finishing up renovations on our expansion and an Electrician was asking if I could move some skids so he could work on a scissor lift to work on the ceiling.
I grabbed one of the portable electric pallet jacks to start moving a skid and was backing up when my left foot bumped into a skid, I tried to reverse the truck but it didn't stop in time and my foot went squished!
I quickly reversed the truck away, but man was the pain ever intense!!

While I was sitting at my computer typing the prayer request, I was feeling cold and clammy from the pain, sweat drenched my hair and forehead.
I felt extremely nauseated and mad at myself for making a stupid mistake.
I guess the coffee hadn't kicked in yet!:hypercoffee

The first aid person at work took me to a clinic, and then to a X-Ray Lab.
I am awaiting the results.

They suspect a severe sprain, a crack, or a fracture.
My foot is swollen and looks slightly disfigured.

Thank you, Thank you, Thank you!!

Your prayers made a difference!!!

Just got off the phone with the doctor and the X-Ray results are in.
A slight hairline fracture on the outside of the bone, but nothing out of place!
Thank God!

He said to use RICE!

Rest
Ice
Crutches
Elevate

I will see on Friday if it is not swelling then they will put a boot cast on.

Thanks once again for your prayers!

Thanks fer asking. Actually I have wore, was wearing, and still am wearing Steel Toed Shoes, however they don't have steel Ankles which is where I got squished.

My foot is all Swollen, and black and blue from bruising. It is sore especially in the evening.
My doctor prescribed a Boot Cast to protect my foot.

WCB (Workers Compensation Board) is now saying they may not pay for it.

So much for the land of socialized medicine, huh.
