then in that case, it's still inconvinient. when you shower you have to keep the cast dry so there's this whole ritual of wrapping some huge plastic bag and taping it shut before you even think about going near water. plus it might best to put a plastic chair in the tub or stall or something so u could sit while you clean yourself =P that, and the hobbling around..... you're in for at least a month of inconvinience. sorry.
