Stage IV Snapshot: Broken Rib

Part of everyday life with bone mets is never knowing when a fracture is around the corner. I would have thought, at this time of year, my biggest risk would be slipping on the ice and breaking my hip. The actual culprit:


Yup, the dog. I was in bed yesterday when Mango came up and stood her front paws on my chest. A few hours later I noticed the pain. The good news is that the pain only lasts a few days. Ribs heal quickly enough. I know this because this isn't the first broken rib I've had since cancer came into my life, the last break was around Christmas. At the time, I blamed it on exertion while carrying the Kitchen Aid mixer up from the basement to make cookies.

This is life with Stage IV. Cookies, puppy kisses. Each risks a broken bone.

  1. Sorry to hear this! Big gentle hugs! My cat once stood on my abdomen and then I found out I had a massive internal infection. I think he set off the pain.

  3. Oh my, I'm sorry to see who the culprit was. I hope things are healing quickly. Who would ever think a pup could be more 'treacherous' than ice this time of year? xx
