After taping it to the toe next to it, the doctor told me to tak 3 days off of work because at that time, I had a job that required standing for 8 hours.

I used Ice packs, pain killers, and sat with the leg propped up.

Can't imagine doing any gymnastics during that time. (Actually, I couldn't do gymnastics even with an unbroken toe.)

but the last time I nailed my big toe (goodbye, flipflops, nice knowing you) the pain was unbearable. I had to go out and get a cane. I can't imagine how Simone managed with broken toes in both feet!

-- and a kidney stone. Holy crap.

one way or another this will not end well for those who oppose you.

It makes me remember the gymnast who broke an ankle (I think it was the ankle, maybe a let) on a vault, and did another one. Child abuse, pure and simple.
