So Much For Easter

Friday, get home from work with the idea of getting the camper ready for next weekend. Camper is on the concrete driveway and to close to the shed to open so pull the thing away from the shed by the A frame.Well the old story of keeping the boots on came home to roost. Ran the solid jockey wheel over the second toe on the right foot. The ball weight on the camper is about 120kg so had all of that on top of the front of the toe, over the nail. End result, one very sad looking toe. Spent the next 6 hours at the Gold Coast Hospital getting the toe looked after. No broken bones but a chance that the ball of the toe will not join back and I may end up loosing the tip of the toe from the first joint. About 12 stitches in the ball of the toe. Almost no room left to put a needle into the thing. Bad news is that I am on my backside for at least the next week so ..... their goes easter.

The one thing I can say is that the staff and doctors at the hospital work under extreme conditions with not enough of anything to do the job but I can only say that I have never been in better hands. If you are going to require emergency treatment, get it at the Gold Coast Hospital.
