So happy you guys were there to help. I kind of know what it means to be driven in the back of a pickup over country roads with a cardboard box as a splint. You should have seen the doctor's face. It was a twist break (right through) and I stood on it afterwards! Thanks for what you are doing for us, and for your blog;)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5498194182629204271.post-16478122066942969772013-05-22T18:40:31.951+00:002013-05-22T18:40:31.951+00:00love your blog, it is really well written and this...love your blog, it is really well written and this post is really informative :) ( I am a memeber of the Irish Red Cross myself, so i know afew things about first aid!)

The patient can end up in a far worse state as a result. Much better to have ther peson stablised and transported in an ambulance.merinzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01950053039147788819noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5498194182629204271.post-38409146964234202642013-03-30T18:29:48.054+00:002013-03-30T18:29:48.054+00:00I pretty much held it in there at the angle she wa...I pretty much held it in there at the angle she wanted to hold it at.

Was it just letting her put it at an angle she was comfortable with or was it at a 90 degree angle or something?

I spent 8 hours in a&e in north london with a friend last year for the same sort of accident - night out but early on in the night before too much alcohol had been consumed, friend slipped and fell and had a pretty identical injury. Even with morphine & alcohol, hearing a grown man scream when the hospital tried to put him back together was enough to put me off ever wanting to do this kind of injury!<br />Been reading your blog for quite some time now & find it extremely interesting, glad to see you back :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5498194182629204271.post-14292267548446596232013-03-22T22:55:34.548+00:002013-03-22T22:55:34.548+00:00Owwwwwww!

I was told because of the way in which it was fractured they couldn't plaster it so only had a pink sling. I remember the pain being horrendous and looking at this makes me feel sick remembering it.<br /><br />To say that though. You can't help but laugh as well.Kat Mosshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13679901845348366864noreply@blogger.com
