Will be brief, daughter due to be sent down. Any one have a clue what to pack? Do we pack a bag? I've looked on line and it's a bit vague . Any help greatly appreciated.

That's really bad, how on earth did they manage that.

Bet you're ready not impressed.

That's where the glass is. The big lump

Wow, that's huge.
It looks really sore.

Have they said whether they think it'll scar?
I can't imagine it'll heal without trace.

drinkswineoutofamug · 28/11/2017 19:46

She's going to have some bad scars . A lot of the cuts are very deep. She has some that's .
I can only say , it's like someone has taken a knife and a vegetable peeler to her face , if that's a good description

How is she coping with the idea? I'm sure I'd be quite heartbroken stupidly enough.

Flowers Wine oh drinks I have just caught up with your thread and updates, hope DD is ok - you are an incredible mother, someone upthread mentioned you as the definition of unconditional love, I would definately agree with that.

MrsMozart · 01/12/2017 12:02

Oh no lass. I'm sorry. I hope she heals quickly and well.

drinkswineoutofamug · 02/12/2017 11:13

Morning all. Thank you for your kind messages I have passed them on to her.
Most of the scans have come off, left some cracking scars. The ones near her mouth are nasty. No glass in the wound on check. She has bald patches where they had to cut her hair .
Mentally she's ok.
Probation next week, at least she's got a good viable excuse for not going.

Hi Drinks, just catching up with your news. Sending you big hugs and a wagging finger for your DD.

CheshireChat · 08/12/2017 21:54

At least she's coping ok, but how are you?

Groovee · 08/12/2017 22:15

How are you doing drinks!

drinkswineoutofamug · 09/12/2017 11:20

Morning! I'm just about snowed in!
Not seen her since Thursday I think. Face has healed . She's informed me she has to go to court again in January, didn't give me a date.
Here we go again

Has it been postponed because of the accident? I thought she had to go before Christmas.

LemonysSnicket · 09/12/2017 16:31

Don’t send pens or things, wait til she’s in as may not be allowed. NO CASH.

LemonysSnicket · 09/12/2017 16:31

God once again I don’t RTFT, sorry

drinkswineoutofamug · 09/12/2017 17:27

Not postponed.she never went to the one in November. Probation said not to worry about it. She sees them when they give her an appointment. So god knows what this one in January is for.

Lemon you made me chuckle

It sounds like just a tick box exercise to me really.

They don't particularly want to create a fuss as it creates more paperwork for them and they probably have more serious cases. Sad, but true.

drinkswineoutofamug · 22/12/2017 08:55

She's made it to 20!

Just opening her presents 🎁

Yay - happy birthday to her.

Hope you have an uneventful birthday Christmas and new year!

Bubblysqueak · 22/12/2017 11:47

Happy birthday to you're dd.

drinkswineoutofamug · 22/12/2017 12:01
