    sorry Ste just called...sounds like he has seriously f**ked up his elbow as he could hardly talk, they'd taken him to cannock hospital who've said to go to stafford. His phone's at home which is why I couldn't reach him.. he's on his way now and his work mate is going to stay with him and then bring him back, and take me to pick up the car...
    and it's all my fault as he was out buying me an extra xmas present!!! :wall:

    NO it isn't he wanted to buy you something, Somethings are just meant to happen so if he wasn't getting you a present it would have been some other reason that it happened!
    Now have that cup of tea!!!!!!!

    I do now that I know alive and lost a million pints of blood or something. I just feel totally helpless.. I should be there by his side and not stuck at home!!!

    Okay, firstly:
    IT IS NOT YOUR FAULT
    Anyway, now we've got that clear (and 6ft high, and bright pink ;)), the hospital will take good care of him - he might even get a bit of gas and air if he's lucky. It sounds as though his mate is taking good care of things. He's probably feeling pretty crappy BUT he did manage to phone you, so is not in so much pain that he's lost consciousness, and he would feel even worse if he knew how upset you were, so for his sake (and yours), take a deep breath and tell yourself 'I have coped with worse than this, and I will cope with this too'.
    I've got to go out now, but will be thinking of you and Ste, and hoping you are both okay.

    I know. I would feel like that to. But there is nothing you would be able to do if you were with him and if he is anything like my OH he would get feb up of you fussing.

    Anyway you need to keep us updated!! I'm sure he will be ok, Mum broke her elbow about 7 years ago and she can still use it fine. She just couldn't lift things very well for a bit.

    How about making his favourite meal for when he gets home? It might take your mind off things a little.

  • Did you know IA, that in an absolute emergency (which this is) the children can go in a car without seats without you being prosecuted. Just sit in the back with little 'un on your lap (belted up) and K in the other belt. At least you could get a lift to your car then. Hope all is OK X

    I think we've got it sorted.. Ste's mate is staying with him and then bringing him back once he's sorted.. and then taking me to get the car.

    No she's not a drummer (would like to see that though :D) But I would have thought so long as he does any physio they ask him to he would be ok.

    Could you heat it up? I treated mine to a takeaway... although watching him try to eat it one handed was very funny... Oh and then there was the left handed man trying to eat spagetti right handed :rotfl:
