Today, after many months of physical therapy for my broken ankle and months of going to college with crutches, my doctor suddenly noticed that my bones hadn't grown together properly. I'm going to have to have another surgery and redo my entire year in college. FML

I hope you can be reimbursed for the time at college that will be going to waste!

I think OP means another torturous year on crutches, not the redoing the same classes. I wish I had advice OP, I spent my entire senior year of college on crutches, going through surgeries and doing physical therapy. It suuuuuuuucks!! Best wishes and hopefully you heal quick!

I don’t see how a broken ankle needing to be broken again results in having to do a year of college over. YDI

In Russia you don’t break ankle, ankle breaks you!

Praying for you.

An X-ray should have been done after your cast was on and before being release and along your healing process Orthopedic Dept should have known this

I dont understand why you have to redo an entire year of college.

I'm not following. You say you WENT to college with crutches. Why do you have to REDO the entire year? Did you fail every class for 2 semesters? I'm missing something here.

Is a wheelchair an option? Or one of those scooter things I see all the time?
