don’t try this at home…

Well first it was my finger and now Sandy is injured… I was at the station on Thursday on my way to work, when someone left a message on my voicemail. A cry for help! I called back as quickly as my fingers could dial hoping I wasn’t too late! My mum had fallen off a ladder.

The crazy little woman thinks she is invincible. She was alone at ‘the house’ on top of a ladder painting when she tumbled and became tangled under a giant mass of aluminium. The paint tin of went flying she lay in agony with white paint in her hair until I arrived thirty minutes later. No matter how many times we warned her of the dangers, she stubbornly went about getting things done no matter how risky what she was doing became.

Off to the hospital we went where they told us she would have to stay admitted and receive surgery. After many x-rays and a few boring days waiting we were told that she if she had surgery she would be unable to travel for up to ten weeks. Thus there was no surgery.

She’s recovering after arriving home today and will hopefully be taking it easy and letting that bone heal, after all it did break in two places.

Time to leave it to the professionals. 

Although I hear she is getting some sort of electric wheelchair to go and supervise the project.

Note: Should start up a DVD rental facility at Cabrini… or they should get Foxtel
