Well, thankfully there has been nothing noteworthy to post recently about her ankle. The pain has subsided and she hasn't much complained lately. That's good! When her ankle stopped hurting is right around the time she got sick, though. So since she's feeling better now, it's the first time in 3 weeks that she's been herself. I had promised some pictures of her with her cast and crutches, so here they are. The crutches are each wrapped in a pink/orange ribbon and we put pink fleece on the top. She's gotten quite the reaction everywhere she goes. The orthopedist said she should set up shop outside his office and charge $10 a crutch and that she'd make a fortune! =)
We got back to the doctor tomorrow and hopefully they'll take the cast off. They'll do more x-rays first, and then decide. I think, if nothing else, they'll at least put a new cast on her because this one has gotten big since the swelling has gone down. I'll repost with new info soon.
Here is Carissa with her cast:

Evidence that with a cast, you can play Wii:
