The only people in the country paying a medical bill!

Yesterday the missionaries called Ryan and asked if he wanted to go play basketball. Of course Ryan accepted and the 6 of them headed over to large park with an outdoor court. Ryan recently bought some new shoes that will also double as running shoes so they aren't "real" basketball shoes. While going up for a little lay-up Ryan came down on the outside of his little toe and totally rolled his ankle. He was able to control his language in front of the missionaries but was in agonizing pain. We don't have visa's so we don't benefit from the socialized medicine. But we knew he HAD to go get it checked out. It is sprained and has has some over stretched tendons. It will heal on it's own but keep in mind he stands ALL day at school and stands when he paints. We haven't received the bill but I know it will be hefty, so we may now be the only people in Italy paying a medical bill.

Oh yeah, did you forget today was April Fool's day? Ryan's ankle's are perfectly healthy. I wanted to say I was pregnant but I thought it would be too obvious. So thank goodness we're all healthy. The only pain Ryan experienced from basketbell was some sore muscles on his weary 30-year-old body.
