My wife Helen was going to work on Friday morning and slipped on ice in the transit parking lot.She fell breaking her leg in two places,her fibia and tibula.An ambulance ride later she was at the hospital and in surgery a few hours later.I found out after she had the best orthopaedic surgeon in the city which was one blessing.
I took this shot just after they fitted her with an airboot(in place of the old style plaster cast they used in the old days).Very painful procedure when you have two broken bones and fresh incisions.
I wanted to show the pain she was in so that later when she is all healed and back to normal she can look back at it and see how she has come along.This was her worst moment.
I got her home yesterday and we will have home care come in and help with her dressings and maybe her anti blood clotting shots she'll need for 10 days.
I am now her nurse,cook and willing maid.
My poor baby.
