A cautionary tale.(crossposted if you need to care)


Over the weekend I spent nearly 2 days in a traumatic surgery
specialist unit.

That wouldn't be my first choice of locations for a weekend break.

[...]

And why was I there? I was ambulanced 60 miles to Morriston after
tripping in my greenhouse, falling into and demolishing 3 panes of
glass with my left hand and falling into the shards.
I almost sectioned a large slice of my left hand and somehow took
another entry wound to my right shoulder, with sundry superficials of
a cosmetic nature.

That's the spirit! Don't do things by halves.

I was lucky. Jobs done under local anaesthetic, cleaned out and
stitched up, no tendon damage.

Phew!

GWS.


I meant to say that and clicked 'send' prematurely

Cheers, and thanks

(I got out of peeling the potatoes today)


So did I, I just scrubbed them and cooked them in their jackes.
