Slipping my toes inside the soft deer skin boots， I was filled with excitement. They were the perfect fit. With comfortable soles and high heels， I decided to wear the boots to my sister Lauren’s birthday celebrations. I couldn’t 1 to show them off.

I loved to top up my 157-cm frame by 2 . around in stilettos. My dad would 3 laugh at my addiction with footwear. “You’ll break 4 your ankles！” he’d say with a smile. Wearing heels made me feel 5 . So when I flew up to Queensland to celebrate with Lauren and the rest of our family， I paired my new heels with a pink dress.

6 enjoying dinner， I got up to find a bathroom. I took a few steps outside when my 7 .slipped from beneath me， landing hard on the ground. Pain 8 through my left ankle， and the pain was 9 as it began trembling. Hot tears ran down as I realised I 10 move. It wasn’t long before Dad was by my side. But as he tried to lift me off the floor I let out a 11 . The pain was too much to bear， so he had no choice but to 12 for an ambulance.

When I was lifted into the back， the doctor found my ankle was broken. He said it continued to 13 up before his very eyes. At the emergency department， the 14 confirmed the break with an X-ray and 15 put a cast on my ankle and sent me home. But I wasn’t allowed to fly to Melbourne as I had planned. My parents had to 16 the two-day trip while I kept my leg raised 17 the car. A week later， the doctor revealed the 18 extent of the damage. I broke my ankle in three different places after a CT scan which was the worst break. A few days later， 19 worked on my ankle and used eight pins. Then I spent eight long weeks on crutches（拐杖） with my foot in a cast. Now， it’s been three 20 since my fall. I’ve had to deal with daily injections to avoid being infected.

I feel silly that a pair of heels caused all my pain. I thought back to what my dad had said to me and it turns out he was at least partly right all along！ Of course I’m nervous about stepping in stilettos again， and I’m going to be more careful in the future.
