A few of you may remember my thread from the middle of the night on Saturday. My dp slipped on a wet mat and ended up with a broken leg and dislocated ankle.

Whilst I was waiting for the ankle to be reset and temp cast to be put on, I started a thread just needing some company and you guys were awesome. I even managed a little giggle and DP was touched by all the well wishers.

I have seen loads of threads started recently saying this place can be unsupportive, so I thought I would counter that and just say thank you all for your support that night. It was great to have a place I could turn to to take my mind off of what was going on.

For those who are interested, dp finally had surgery today and will probably be in until Friday, he is quite uncomfortable but doing well and is still managing to have a bit of a giggle with the other patients on the ward.

Glad he’s doing alright! Wish him a speedy recovery.

I didn’t see your thread but I agree that this is, on the whole, a very supportive place and it’s got me through some shitty times when I wouldn’t otherwise have known where to turn to advice and empathy.

AnneLovesGilbert I agree completely! I mean that was a quite light hearted thread (I specifically asked for people to give me funny stories to make me laugh) and it just gave me something else to focus on. This is a great place with great people, I love the diversity of opinions etc, it makes you think about things from different perspective.
