Back from never really being gone
|
Although it did turn out less bad than the title suggests. Yesterday morning, just before I went to school, the phone rang. Few people know our landline number, so this can't be good. And it isn't. My wife was hit by a car on her bicycle to work. Mild concussion, maybe a rib fracture, rest unknown. Flew a few metres. Nothing lasting it seemed, but I went of to work only to ask whether I could be replaced. Cycled to the station via both our mother's work to inform them. A bit of a shock to see her in hospital, head fairly bruised. But not as bad as you fear on the way there. A broken clavicle, which is an irritating thing but fortunately for her a clean break so not very painfull, and muscles aching all over but nothing else damaged seriously. She was dismissed by the end of the afternoon. So that's why I haven't been posting much since yesterday and won't be for the next few days. I've made my election statements anyway ![]() Oh, and she's fine now, walking through the house and pretty much functioning as well as possible with being able to use just one arm properly. |

I'm sorry to hear this. Best of luck to both of you for the next few days, and I hope she is on the mend. I'm glad at least there was no major damage. Best wishes! |

I'm really glad to hear that she seems to be doing fine, and of course I send her a heartfelt "Gute Besserung!" and wish you both the best of luck! |

Sorry to hear of this, Groot. It sounds like she's going to be OK, but that must have been terrifying. Best of wishes for her speedy recovery and as has already been suggested, pamper her. |

Hugs hurt too much ![]() The pampering and kissing goes fine though. She's recovering very well, so our planned trip to Berlin doesn't seem to be endangered. Thanks for all the responses!

Best wishes to your wife for a quick recovery. And a quick word of advice for her: milk this for all it's worth! You now have a great excuse for getting that lazy Groot to do all the chores!

Au contraire, she was feeling so well today and was so bored because she can't do much (reading and watching TV takes too much concentration) that she started doing chores... She's too good for this world, really. |
