Off to see the plastic surgeon

[Dawn]

Had a bit of a accident last night and trapped my fingers ina very heavy fire door

Anyways the upshot is I spent from 7.45 till 11.30 in the casualty department and have to go back for 7.30 this morning to have surgery to see if I've damaged any tendons, Its a bit messy at the moment I've lost half my nail on my middle finger and can't bend 2 of my other fingers but they are just badly bruised not broken.

The surgeons are going to take out the other half of my nail this morning and then I guess we'll see what happens from there.

I'm not looking forward to this in the slightest as I don't do hospitals well at all. I'm not allowed to eat or drink till after the surgery so as you can imagine I'm desperate just for a sip of water at the moment I'm on extra strenght painkillers so feeling rather light headed and also on anti-biotics as it was a open wound.

So yeah just had to cry for some sympaty as it blooming well hurts and I need hugs and lots of them

oh no poor dawn hope there no lasting damage.

[~threadbear~]

Ouch! That sounds nasty Dawn. You poor thing!
Hopefully they'll be able to sort it and the tendons will be fine. I really, really hope so.


Take care.

Ouch! Poor Dawn, I can almost feel it! I hope they do a good job and get it fixed for you and that it all heals quickly. Big hug from me!

[Serinde]

Youch! Hope all is well, and try not to get too wound up about the hospital -- all they want to do is patch you up. And even hospitals are a bit less grim at Christmas... for you and too.
