Can anyone say OUCH?????

HOLY FALLING FAT WOMEN BATMAN!!!!!

#1--excuse the typo's i'm typing one handed.

Alekx and the house elf went diving at the lake this past weekend. Me and kiddo stayed at their house. Visited mom, and ate and sight seeing with the house elf's brother and mother (they live down the street and around the corner). Sunday we were gonna go to a bbq at their house and go see mom. Kiddo gets in the car, I walk around the back to get in to drive. Apparently, there is a foot grabbing inch and a half ledge in the concrete. And...of course my foot hit it just right. I twisted my ankle (bad people) (left ankle) hit my right knee, and put my left arm out to break my fall. KABOOOOOMMMM!!!!! Right on my stomach, face down on the concrete. My first thought was "god, I hope nobody saw that" My second thought was "god I hope somebody saw that, cuz I can't get up" I tried to push myself up, only to realize that my ankle was bad, my knee hurt, and my arm was in massive pain. Not like sprained my wrist kind of pain, but like I BROKE MY FUCKING ARM AND CAN'T MOVE IT kind of pain. Thank the lord half the neighborhood was across the street for some reason. They called an ambulance, and went and got house elfs brother. Only thing I don't understand is they called for help, but not one of them came over to check on me. Ass holes. Oh well was nice they called for help. Poor kiddo was scared out of his fricken mind. Praise god house elfs brother was there and took care of him. I got to see the nice inside of Keller's ambulance, and meet two very nice emt's hehehehe Got to the hospital, and got x-rays. I was very sick to my stomach, and the doc says that happens with breaks or other severe bone injuries. (oh great) Doc comes in and goes "good news, your wrist isn't broke, but look at this" shows me the x-ray of my elbow. (feel free to gag here, we all did) my elbow was SEVERELY dislocated. The ball of the joint was out of the socket competely and up on top of it. (here's were all the fun stuff starts) He says we have to put a shot of anesthetic in the elbow joint and get it back in. Then leaves to get the specialist. I then make brother take kiddo out, cuz he didn't have to see that. They bring in this 5 inch long syringe full of stuff and inject it into my elbow joint. OMGGGGGGt hurt so bad. They then had a nurse help hold me, one doc hold my upper arm and the specialist start the torture. let me tell ya people I almost pissed myself. I was moaning and going ooooh ooooh ouch ouch nooooo ouch. Lots of pulling and bending and three pops and one massive SNAP!!!! later. I could move my arm, and I didn't realize I was crying till the doc wiped my eyes. Then the water works really started. I was in a place I didn't know, without my husband, scared my kid beyond reason, and I'm in the hospital. I felt stupid, embarrassed and like a failure. I ended up getting a cast like thing. It's hard and fiberglass, but I can unwrap it for showers.

I can not stress enough how grateful I am to the house elfs brother. I've met the man twice. He stayed at the hospital for 6 hours with me, he left once and took kiddo to get something to eat cuz we missed lunch, he did lots of hugs and reassurance to the boy. He helped me in and out of the car, brought me back, and went and got his mom and the bbq to feed us dinner. They stayed till late till they knew Alekx and the house elf were a few minutes away.

I am so grateful for Alekx and the house elf too. They were so tired when they got in, and they got kiddo in bed and had to both help me up (cuz by this time my ankle was majorly effed up) She has been getting me dressed and helping me to the bathroom and such. She did all the phone calls about the insurance, and set me up with another doctors appt. She took some days off work to help. Yesterday was pure hell, I could barely walk, not to mention the pain in my arm. Today, I'm walking a little better.

Here is what else really sucks. Those water aerobics I really wanted to do. Were supposed to start yesterday. All the other stuff I was gonna work on now has to be postponed. BITES THE BIG ONE!!!!

So thats what has been going on. If I don't post and comment alot, it's cuz this one handed typing sucks ass. took me almost two hours to type this.

Happy whatever day it is!!!!

Damn Bur, you don't f*ck around do you? When you want to get hurt you go for the gusto.
I hope things heal quick sweetie. I'm glad your with Alexk, even if Gigantor isn't there to carry you around. Don't get too down on your self Bur, it wasn't anyone's fault (except maybe whoever built the walk). Having been through bone breaks before I do understand the pain. Rest and get better, we'll miss you but will still be here waiting when your arms good enough to write again.
