Ooops!

Yesterday I had 45 minutes of therapy in a warm pool. Then I came home and slept for a couple of hours!

Today I did laundry. Later in the afternoon, I remembered I had left my purse locked in the back of my car when I went to PT so I went our to get it. Because it has been raining most of the day, when I got my purse and started back to the house, I slipped on wet grass and did a fairly impressive face-plant on the sidewalk. I scraped my chin enough to have it bleed a little, completely knocked the breath out of myself, and, I discovered later, hurt my right wrist enough that I can’t hold anything without shooting pains. It doesn’t seem to be swelling but if it is like this tomorrow, I will take it to the walk-in clinic and get it x-rayed.

your thoughts and feelings, and then the outer things will come to

correspond, and indeed there is no other way of wrking."

OMG – I hope you’re OK. Did you slip on the wet grass or something?

I so hope nothing is broken or badly sprained. Take care.

Oh, dear! Ice it and wrap it up. Hope it’s not broken!

Goodness gracious! I hope that if you do need to get it x-rayed it doesn’t show anything serious.

Oh no! I’m sorry, Patricia.

I do hope it’s nothing major with your wrist!

Ouch!

too relaxed… can’t win for losing I hope you’re alright!

Oh my gosh! I’m glad you didn’t hurt your hip. 45 minutes of therapy in a warm pool would have had me heading for a nap at home too.

oh gosh! I’m so sorry that happened! I hope any aches and pains you got from the fall go away quickly!! hugs, Nicky

Ouch! My Mom did the exact same thing last week and hurt her chin AND her wrist…same as you! Sure enough, she sprained her wrist. Get it checked out.
