Last Saturday our SIL hit his finger. He put a bandage on then drove to the village hall where he left his car before getting the bus into town for a leaving do for work mates.
On the Wednesday he sent a photo of his finger to his niece who’s a Sister in Preston A & E dept. She said come in so he puts his bike in the car & drove to Broughton nearest village to hospital
He then cycles rest of the way.
After examining the finger the doctor puts Garth on an antibiotic drip & keep him in over night & all next day.
At 7pm the plastic surgeon looks at it, they wash it out, stitch him up & discharge him
In the meantime Cathy has arranged a lift to pick up car & collect Garth. She doesn’t hear anything then next thing he comes in the door at home.
He has pushed his bike two & a half miles then driven home! Taking his sling off temporarily course!
Typical!
Oh, he is a man of great will though sometimes it is better to be less so as there are times you make more harm to yourself. But he looks tough and happy at what he achieved so well done to him.
Hope it heals well.
