Hiatus

26 Replies

I am taking a break right now.  A break!  Ha Ha!  This one is out of my control.

On Wednesday I told you about a fall I had and that after 3 hours in A&E I was told there were no bones broken and allowed to drive home alone.

By Thursday things were different.  Half the right side of my face was numb and there was blood in the mucous I coughed up.

I drove back to the same A&E Department at my Local Area Hospital. I saw the same team who looked after me on Tuesday.

Eight hours later (with no food) and several CAT Scans of my face and head, I was informed that there were two breaks in the bone immediately under my eye and a possible further break to a bone at the base of my skull.  Again (knowing I was alone) I was allowed to drive home, with an appointment for The Ulster Hospital, Dundonald, on the eastern edge of Belfast, on Monday afternoon.

Elly is on her way and should be here shortly.

I am in no form for reading of any kind, Posts for Thursday and yesterday were pre scheduled, and there are a few more in the pipeline.  Please forgive me for not replying to comments or visiting other blogs at the moment.  My body needs rest and I am listening to it.

Elly will post an update after the hospital visit.

Don’t worry, I will soon be back teasing and playing with you all.

I hope @eolai won’t want to paint my multicoloured face when he arrives on Tuesday.

    Grannymar, I am so sorry to see this. I do hope you will be following doctor’s orders – although so far – they don’t seem to be doing too well. Hope you are back in good form soon.

    Glad to hear that you are listening to yourself and getting the rest you need to heal.

    It’s comforting to know that Elly has come to give you support – emotional and physical.

    You have to get better soon. Without your cool input, Mayo and cohorts are all ganging up on me. I should never have written about fantasies. 🙂 I need your loving support LOL That however, is not to come now. Now you must rest and take care of yourself. Believe me, I can handle these guys by myself until you are better.

    I am glad that Elly will keep us posted on your condition. You are top on my list of concerns and prayers.

    Thank you everyone for your thoughts prayers and wishes.
    Having Elly here is good for me and has helped to lift my spirits. She will drive me to the hospital tomorrow and stay until Wednesday morning.

    Oh, Grannymar, you poor soul. It’s great that you have Elly with you now to look after you and boss you about.

    Do let me know if I can be of any use to you!

    I’m only catching up now too, Grannymar… I should have checked your blog BEFORE I emailed you!

    So sorry to read that you’ve been in the wars . I hope that news from today’s appointment is better?

    Are we allowed to call you Panda bear now? 😕
