Background
Well what a plonker - I slipped over coming out of the learning centre at the Canal & River Trust museum in Stoke Bruerne in Northants. I thought I'd just regain my composure and walk off the bruising and everything would be fine. Sadly not so - the head of my femur was snapped so a halt to normal operations was called (as was a first responder and an ambulance) and I was whisked off to Northampton General for a X-Ray (l'll attach it when I can) and was admitted. Saturday and Sunday were a bit of a blurr with the femur being put back together by José on Saturday morning using an epidural (wonderful) in just under 2 hours.
I was moved from Cedar ward to Abington ward on Sunday afternoon as that's where the expertise in femur fractures is. Not a very pleasant evening - I was put in a ward of 6 with the remaining five suffering some form of dementure.
The image on the left was taken by my friend Sarah Brown from Canal & River Trust - the smaller of the images (on the right) shows a closeup of the fracture.
