So.... it's been really icy here over the last week we hit -8 but no snow. My Dad fell on Sun on the ice and hurt his arm/wrist. He didn't think anything of it thinking it was a minor injury. Fast forward to Tuesday where he went to his GP who sent him up to a local hospital for an x ray. This hospital in turn sent my Dad to the main hospital's A&E (ER) department. He hasn't in fact injured his wrist he has BROKEN his wrist and needs to go back to the hospital tomorrow (Wed) to get an operation on it otherwise his wrist will be weak. He will need to get a metal plate in his wrist. Might I add his dominate hand. He will be off work for some time. This is all we need. My Mum in hospital and my Dad in plaster. FFS! 2018 has to get better right??!!??
