Sorry to hear about your accident Tikka. You might be lucky at the A&E.

Tikka
Thanks, all. I’m feeling quite sore and battered this morning so I’ve ordered a cab and am off to spend the day in the queue at A&E. x

Good decision, Tikka  I hope that if anything is broken it's identified promptly (it's not always straightforward with elbows.)

[when I was a kid I fell off my pony, later that night I had a tennis ball for an elbow, was told it was a nasty fracture and put in plaster. A check up at the fracture clinic said it was a growth line not a fracture!]

Tikka
Thank you all for your kind messages, I'm very touched. After 6 hours in A&E and a full body x-ray, the good news is that I've got away with a chipped bone in my elbow, a torn ligament in my forearm and soft tissue bruising in both hips. My bones are like Aero so the fact that it was freezing cold and I was wearing 4 layers of clothing obviously gave me some extra padding! I'm mighty relieved to say the least, it could have been a lot worse. Sorry for hijacking the thread, I'll let you all get back to talking crafting now! My hat knitting is on hold meantime, but hopefully only temporarily. |

That's a lot better than it might have been, Tikka. Excellent news

You’re telling me, V’Rap! I still can’t quite believe I got away with it because the car hit me with force and properly sent me flying. The doc said probably the fact that I didn’t anticipate it happening helped - if I’d seen the car coming for me I’d have tensed up and the damage would probably have been worse, as it was I fell relaxed! I’m still very sore, but now that I know that it’s not because major bones are broken it’s a more tolerable level of sore!
