    Arm
In summary, Evo has a broken arm and is going to the ER. Kurdt promised bubble wrap suits, but they haven't shown up yet. The PF copter is on its way to help Evo.

Same arm, same place, fell in the backyard, same place as last time, third break. I didn't faint, although I came close. The Evo Child is on her way over, she wants to drag me to the ER, but I have a doctor's appointment in the morning anway.

you are a LEGEND!

Whoa! I'm so sorry...is there a gravity vortex there, or something? I think that would explain why you fall there so often - you're getting sucked to the earth. It would also explain the freaky picture you posted!
 
  • #4
No :eek: I'm glad there's someone on the way to you. Aren't you supposed to not break the same bone twice? Best wishes!

Oh dear......:frown:

Oh sure, we just about get Tsu mended up from her bad hip, and now you have to go and break yourself again. I swear, the two of you are just too competitive!

And where are those bubble wrap suits Kurdt promised?

But, um, unless your doctor's appointment is with an orthopedist, I'm afraid that's not going to help much with patching an arm. Do you have an urgent care that can cast an arm rather than going to an ER? I think they need to do something to keep you from continually re-breaking that same arm...like, um, locking you indoors or something? :uhh:

Feel better.

So you typed this message before getting it fixed? You're my hero...though I don't really want to be like you.

Holy cow, Evo!

You have a broken arm. I think you should go to the ER right away and have it taken care of.

Zz.

oh, girl, sorry to hear...


you didn't slip on one of tomatoes in the yard that the squirrel carried off, was it?

The Evo Child has made me an appointment at 7pm at the urgent care place, she's not letting me get out of it.

Thanks everyone. Luckily I had a pain pill I didn't use from the root canal. Probably should not have taken it before seeing the doctor, oh well, too late.

rew, I think the alien glowing bunny is trying to take me down.

Blast, and that gypsy has not turned up yet, i have invented some special shoes for you, they have an 18 inch square sole/heel area covered in extra thick rubber.

If they do not work it is a trip to the bionics lab.

Now get fixed up and all better quick.

Dammit, woman! You're making me dread logging on - wondering what further offense you'll inflict upon yourself. Hie thee to an ER!

Ooh, lighting, should get off the craptop.

There will be no bubble wrap in the new suits. I've sourced some http://farm2.static.flickr.com/1257/1142700028_0722714775.jpg" with kevlar armour. Now I have to figure out some sort of ventilation system.

And as member of the Sisterhood, she knows that severe pain is no excuse not to post. We spit in the face of pain {phituwweeeee}.



Honestly, I am so sorry you are injured again, hope you mend quickly.
