[GColdtimer]

that is it really. cross with myselffor being so careless, missing dd and dh and generally fed up.

poor you

my dad recenly broke his arm in 4 places and is very fed up.

so sorry to hear this, it must be horrible being away from your dh and dd. Have they given you any idea how long you'll be in for?

oh no...you poor poor thing!

ho did you manage that? when are ou having your op?

here...have a choccie and a big hug! (((()))))

hope you're feeling much better very soon.

thank you1 have to waut fortthe swelling to go down so coould be 5 days. i fell down the stairs at 6am yesterday. dd screaming so carried her down quickly so not to disturb everyonne. just missed bottom stair and dislocatee and broke anke. dd screaming, me trying to stay calm, mum panicking at sight. i was inagony. such a bloody drama.

sorrn for typing by the way. on tiny keyboard and very slow.

thanks for hugs and choccie.

luckily dd was fine. it could have been her.

Ouch!

Are you going to have to stay in hospital all that time?

Do you one of those little tv things at your bed with the internet connection?

Not much consolation but atleast you can get on here for a chat and not just laying staring at the walls.

Oh my word, poor you, what a nightmare!

sneaks even

Ow, ow, ow. You poor thing.

You poor thing! Broke my leg when pregnant - not ideal. Try and make the most of it and look on the brightside: no housework, lots of attention and sympathy and all the trashy mags you can read with time to actually read them! I really do know how hard it is, but try and stay positive or you'll go mad! good luck with the op

Ouch! Poor you. I broke my ankle stupidly falling over once after stepping off a kerb badly. It is really painful. Hopefully they'll give you a walking cast after your op and you should find you're able to stay fairly mobile.

thank you [quaffs wine sneakily]
that is how i am trying to see it alicerail - my friend as been here all afternoon and we have read mags and had a good nattter. and have telly, internet. and wine and choc from you lot i am set up!

bythesea, how long afteryour op were you mobile?

hello, still here. had op on monday but because we all overlook the fact i sprained the other ankle, am still not safely mobile. just want to be at home

oh poor you

what a long time to be stuck there!

Oh no - just saw this

Do you know when you will be home? Are you on a ward? Hope it is not too dire!

Gosh, poor you twofalls. You are going to remember this Christmas for a long time to come. Any chance of a NY party on the ward tonight?

Oh twofalls, you poor thing

Do look on bright side, could have been much worse, esp with child in arms - hope they will let you out soon but BE CAREFUL

dg, unlikely with this rather ageing lot bless em

i know ponders it could have been worse. when i saw dd earlier i kept thinking that.

thanks for good wishes. have certtainly had chance to reflect inhere. noe realise i am not indistructable!!

so slow at typing. tiny keboard.

a friend of dh's broke his leg last year and got stuck on the ward too waiting for an op

I was really surprised that he, at the age of about 45, was the youngest on the ward by a good 20 years or so!

hope they let you out soon!

thanks for champers by the way

You poor thing.DP also in hospital at the mo.Not a good place to be on NYE

(Hands Twofalls large glass of virtual Champagne and consolatory chocolates)

i am surprsed to, i feel so yong in here. i think the nurses are glad of some semi sensible conversation. i say semi cos have been fairly drugged up last couple of days.

Such bad luck, twofalls.
I hope you get back home soon.

oh no wrinklytum, how long for? poor you. i felt so sorry for my dh when he left with dd earlier..

thank you. hoping for friday but that depends on how many urgent cases come in tonight! physio and plaster clinic only work till 12 tomorrow and i can;t go until they change my cast and teach me stairs!
