Hi, my name is Holdem. As much as you don't wanna hear this, STAY OFF of it AT ALL COSTS. Weight on it will NOT help it heal. Darlin, its hard bein up off your foot. I know. I'm the guy who went on a rescue call on my sprained ankle. I waltzed into the ER of a local hospital with someone less injured than myself. As an EMT I know, people tend to over do things. You are a daycare mom I know you are tough. I respect it. But hun, have some friends help you around the house or something else will get broken. Like your patella. (knee cap)
I really hope you get better soon, and ice+motrin=relief.
Your pal,
Holdem
