My 23 yr old went to the destruction derby and fell off the bleachers, she fractured her leg in 3 places and sprained the other foot. She has come to stay with me for awhile while she heals. She is going in on Wednesday morning for surgery.
It is difficult cause she can't get comfortable and it is very painful to try to help to move her. My son and I tried to carry her, she weighs 185 pounds. That didn't work. The doctor gave her Vicodin but it makes her nauseous. While I was trying to help her to the bathroom she got sick and threw up all over, so while I am trying to clean her up, she got sick 3 more times.
I was up till 4:30 am, I was afraid to go to bed. Today my back is killing me and my knees feel like they have been beat by a baseball bat. I hope I can live through her recovery without having to go in for traction.
I am hoping that my sons girlfriend doesn't go into labor yet. I guess it is like they say "when it rains, ir pours.
If you don't see me for a few days, it is because I am recuperating.
