Boogles wed evening A&E adventures!!!

[TinselRider]

Hellooooo

Yup you guessed it tonight I landed myself in A&E for the first time in 7 years of horse ownership!

How did I manage this you ask? I shall tell......

I was putting Lords bandages on his back legs in the stable after grooming him and he kicked his stomach with the opposite hind to the one I was bandaging.....well unfortunatley as he kicked his stomach he swung his leg over to "my" side and he caught my eye in the process

Thinking I just had a graze I jokingly exited the stable saying "MEDIC" (a long standing joke on our place but thats too long to tell ) and I saw the blood dripping into my eye (eeeew) . I was rushed in to the barn by the YM and cleaned up being told I needed stiches ......not that I could tell as all I could see was the blood . Anyway I manage to get a lift up to A&E.......It's funny how quickly you get seen to when you say
"I've been kicked in the head by a horse"

So not too long later I have been glued up and had my tet jab, not quite the highlight of the evening for a needlephobic , also have a nicely swelling eye so no doubt will look like a panda thats been stung in the eyeball by a wasp


Ben and jerrys and some pinapple liquor for those that managed to read

[JenHunt]

ooowwwweeee! not nice! hope you're not too sore!

my friend managed to get himself two black eyes and 20 stitches in his face on wednesday by fixing something in the gym! and he was in A&E for 9 hours waiting for stitches!

Think about the stories you can make up about how you got it. But you were lucky

 

[muddy_grey]

I was once doing up a cross surcingle and my hair tickled his belly and he kicked me in the head. Luckily no blood for me, but a nice looking black eye.

Hope you feel better soon

 

[Cedars]

It always worries me that my little one might dislike feeling my hair and kick at her tummy!

Hope you're not too sore in the morning, keep up with the painkillers and let us know how you heal!

Hope your horsey was suitably cuddly and apologetic

 

[devilwoman]

ouch - hope you heel quickly x

 

[Chellebean]

Ouchie ***hugs***
Hope it all gets better soon xx

 

[MrsMozartletoe]

Yowch! Hope they gave you some good pain meds.

Gentle hugs and a large hot choccy

 

[Pebbles]

Oh dear, hope you're not too sore by morning, you can now join the broken club with the rest of us!!!

 

[Booboos]

Poor you! That sounds like really bad luck!

At least you got seen fairly quickly! Hope you feel better soon!

 

[Bright_Spark]

Ouch! Hope you are not too sore in the morning.

 

[Sprout]

Ouch - thats a nasty, and unlucky accident!

Hope you feel better soon.

 

[LauraWheeler]

ouch. Poor you. Hope your not to bad today.

 

[Kenzo]

Oh boogles poor you (((hugs))) hope your feeling a bit better now and hopefully your swelling (or second head ) will go down very quickly.
Just goes to show how a simple routine thing can put you in hospital!

 

[Archangel]

Ouch. Poor you!

When you feel better perhaps we could have the MEDIC story... I've settled down with the Ben & Jerry's

 

[TinselRider]

Thanks for the well wishes everyone

I'm not as black and blue as I expected nor am I looking like I have consumed a bad crab I am however feeling shakey and flu-like so I had the boys turned out for me this am

On relfection I have been V lucky as the whole incident could have been so much worse.
