Het is een goede gipsverband

Thanks to everyone prayers, I got a new plaster, and I think “Het is een goede gipsverband” (It is a good plaster cast!)
Now you may see me “running” around (not really running actually, but I “feel” like it, I still can only walk with the plaster. Previously it is quite painful when I was walking, so I rather stay at home and not go anywhere even I wanted to).
They are making fun of me for coming twice in three days, I made fun of them too, I told them that “I did give it a try for one day! at least”, and I also said “I will try to be good so they won’t see me again until next appointment”. Sign, now everyone there knows me, well, of course, I am the only “Asian” there and also the only person who speaks English to them, so that made me a very “obvious” target!
By the way, I also change cast color to be “blue” instead of staying with “red”, just thought that might change some of the bad luck. I think it looks good, if I have time I will post a photo of the new cast!

Wat een verrassing om Nederlands te zien.
This probably isn’t perfect; it’s Dutch by marriage–my spouse is from Groningen.
So here’s my question, how does one say “a complete Achilles’ tendon rupture” in Dutch? I’ve been explaining to my in-laws “Ik heb een Achilles’ pees breuk.”
Thanks.
