She was supplied with a brace that immobilises the leg so she cannot bend it at all. She will be referred to orthopaedic for further investigation and possible physiotherapy once the swelling has gone completely.

She remains cheerful despite not being able to get any exercise and she has been advised that she is unlikely to be able to exercise for several months. In the meantime she becomes more proficient on her crutches and I run around helping wherever and whenever I can. It's amazing how tirin

Of course this does mean I will be doing the Cycle4Cynthia fifty miles on my own and I now need to get back into training after 2 weeks of supporting Jane.
