Was leaving my buddy’s duck camp in Erath, the tide went out the night before so the boat was about 10ish feet below the dock. No ladder to get in and I didn’t really think about how far of a drop it was and sent it.
More like a mis-calcanus, right?

Ummm it’s the falling part that gets you…

What’s the road to recovery look like for a shattered calcanus?

At least 6 weeks from what I’ve been told/read. I still have to go to the orthopedic surgeon and get his thoughts.
I live in DFW so not much the urgent care in Lafayette could do this morning other than x-ray it and get me some meds/crutches.

This gave me a vision of the old Chris Hansen To Catch A Predator gif where he emerges around a corner... except it was Christy Noem with a shotgun.

No offense, but who in the hell climbs a a ladder using their heels, if that is actually the injury? You use the front of your foot.
My mother fell off of a ladder and broke her heel. Ruined her trip to Grand Canyon and Mt. Rushmore.
It all depends on what and where you hit when you come down.

Yeah and I landed flat on my feet on a metal boat hull.

Bayou Tigre is barely 8ft deep baw before you get to Delcambre Canal. Smells like some BS to cher

Shattered (pic below) or fractured ? There is a difference. Fractured - surgery not likely, non-weight bearing for 8-12 weeks, Sedentary work release, ambulate with a knee scooter, physical therapy 3x’s a week for 8 weeks. Shattered - major fusion surgery with lots of hardware, your ankle/heel will never be the same, extensive PT, 100% recovery at maximum medical improvement - full duty release: 9-12 months.
I work in the medical field dealing with treatment for all types of injuries. According to my 30+ yrs of experience, a coccyx (tailbone) and calcaneus shatter are the 2 worst injuries one can deal with
