OUCH!!
Yesterday, at Matt's physical therapy appointment he find out a bit more on his ankle. The first xray shows that the ligament ripped off the bone, taking some bone with it. Then the second xray which was taken about a week later, showed that the ligament had re-attached itself to bone. We are hoping that the bone cartilage when make its way naturally out, otherwise he might need to get it surgically removed. We just need to be concerned if his ankle catches everytime he moves it. Also he found out that it will probably be six months before he is completely back to normal. So it looks like he will be in physical therapy for a bit longer.

Boy, Matt, you can't just sprain your ankle like everyone else, no, no, you have to make it all gross with ligaments and bones ripping all over the place :) SO sorry, that's terrible! I hope it heals quickly and you're not too uncomfortable.
Ouch is right!
