In 2000 I was hit by a car, my leg was broken below my knee and my ACL was ripped. It was operated on and I was in a cast halfway up my thigh. They told me I would be going home the next day. I told them I was not. They said yes, I said no. I developed a slight temperature (what they didn't know was that my normal temperature was a little higher than most). They sent me home three days later via ambulance due to the steps going up to my home.
