Ft. De Soto Park, St. Petersburg, Fl (86 degrees, hot & humid)
Unfortunately as I was directing John out of our camping site I did not notice the curb. I took a very dramatic tumble catching myself with my right hand. John parked the motorcoach and quickly took me to a local ER. X-rays confirmed a fracture and I'll see a hand surgeon tomorrow. Hopefully it will not be too complicated. Our daughter was visiting at the time and was such a great help. We will be here for another week but continuing the blog for now is just too difficult. Typing with one hand is a challenge.
I'll try to update our blog soon. Please keep us in your thoughts and prayers.
sorry to hear that as Sharon went thru that last summer in Portland Oregon, hope all goes well!
ReplyDeleteOh dear! Feel better soon. I have so enjoyed reading about your experience at the Wildlife Refuge. We plan on visiting this winter and hopefully see the roseate spoonbills in person.
ReplyDeleteSo sorry to hear about your accident. Sounds like it's not *too* serious. Hope it heals soon and you get back to blogging. We'll miss reading about your adventures.

That's no fun. Best wishes for a speedy recovery.
ReplyDeleteOh, Carol! I am soo soo sorry. Hopefully all will heal up soon. We are so looking forward to visiting with you. Enjoy your blogging break at least.
ReplyDeletewell good grief. . .you done gone and done it now. . .glad it's something that can be fixed. . .take care!
ReplyDeleteOh no. Ouch! Having fallen last year, I know it is no fun. Get yourself repaired and rested up.
ReplyDeleteMy sis-in-law tripped over a curb and fell a couple of days ago. She didn't break anything, but has scrapes on her hands, upper lip and cheek.
I hope your break isn't serious. Take care.
I'll miss your posts but having my hand in a thumb stabalizer at the moment for trigger thumb, I know exactly how much more difficulty you would have doing a blog. Rest up, heal and relax.
ReplyDeleteGood luck, hope all works out well for you.
ReplyDeleteTake good care of you my friend, the rest will follow in due time.
ReplyDeleteOuch, that is not fun:( We will keep you in our thoughts and prayers.
ReplyDeletesorry to hear that you took a spill, Carol!..hope the mending process doesn't take too long!!
ReplyDeleteOuch! Hope you heal soon. Curbs can sneak up on you real easy. But on the bright side John can cook or take you out for dinners ;)
ReplyDeleteOh, Carol, how unfortunate! We do hope that your recovery will not be complicated. We'll be thinking of you!
ReplyDeleteI'm so sorry to hear about your accident. I hope you recover quickly. Tell John to post a quick blog and let us know how the visit with the surgeon went.
ReplyDeleteFran took a backward tumble in Anchorage, luckily her butt took the brunt! Binocs and casts don't work well, so you'll need a new hobby--manipulating the remote for daytime TV? Get well before Nov., work to do! Seriously, we know a great hand Doc in Orlando if you need a second opinion.
