I "like" the free medical coverage that I get for being a varsity athlete.
Last night at practice I was dropped as we were learning a new pyramid. It wasn't a bad fall, only from about five feet but when I landed I came down on a rolled ankle. It swelled up so I iced it and stuff but when I woke up this morning it just hurt even worse. So I went to go see the trainer and it happened that the head trainer, Eric, was there. This was shocking because the trainers are very rarely in their office, especially Eric. He checked out my ankle and said that I have a first degree sprain and he gave me a brace and told me to keep icing it and stuff. If it keeps bothering me I'm supposed to go back and we'll "seek further treatment". He also told me that the cheerleaders are "killing him" with all the injuries we've been having this year hahah. My ankle already feels a lot better now that I have the brace to stabilize it. Hopefully it'll be alright for the football AND basketball game I have to cheer at on Saturday!
