Broke my wrist!!!
 

Broke my left wrist Monday on ice I thought was snow. Beyond pissed at myself. Husband is waiting for a knee transplant so we’re both out of commission.

Going by cab now to orthopedist who treated me when I broke my right wrist some years ago.

Virtual hugs welcome - I am dealing badly with this. :mad:

My skeletal system is a cracked up mess so I definitely sympathize! Had a bunch of pins put in my wrist last year. Need both knees replaced too. Hope they patch you up as quickly and painlessly as possible!

Get well soon..

Look on the bright side, great opportunity to watch more movies. Or spy on the neighbors. :)

Oof, sorry. Re: ice/snow, like you moved your hand towards something really fast thinking it was snow and it was nice?

Hope you feel better, sounds awful.

Bummer, I hope it heals quickly without much problems.

Last week we had ice rain in the evening and I was concerned that I hadn't fully raised my suv's windows from driving that day. So I told my wife I was going outside in the dark to check, she said to be careful. I could see our front porch was a sheet of ice so I grabbed the hand rail and took a careful step, then another step...and boom, I slipped so fast that all I could do was to try and hang on but I still fell down the stairs to the bricks below. Now my right ankle really hurts when I walk which is a bummer as I just got a new treadmill. I don't know how long it will take to get better. Yeah ice sucks!

😟 Oh no. Sorry to hear that. Hope you heal quickly. Sending virtual hugs 🤗

Ah no, I'm sorry to hear that! It certainly doesn't sound pleasant :(

I hope you heal up quickly!

Ouch, get well soon.

Sorry to hear about the wrist.

Ice sucks. Feet went out from under me and through my arms out to protect myself. Landed thumb first shattering it, two pins and a screw. This was almost 40 years ago and now arthritis has taken home there. Constant ache.

Helpful Hint: Feel yourself going down, don't t throw your arms out.

Husband needs right knee replacement.

Thought it was white snow. Nope, it was white ice. First day I didn’t wear ice trekkers. :rolleyes:

Same situation at our house. Slippery old wooden front door steps ending in bricks. Terrifying.

I frickin hate winter & I’m terrified of ice. I’m very tall & slender & I really slammed down on this ice.

Hospital gave me 8 x 50mg Percocet. Nah, 50mg not gonna cut it.

Oh dear! Many gentle hugs to you! Here's a sign for your yard:

^not wrist tho.

GET WELL STIRCHLES! Even if AU up there is off on the anatomy.
:D

I'm so sorry that happened to you.

I hope you're able to get on a path to healing quickly.

Hugs!

I couldn't find an image with someone breaking a wrist on the ice. I mean, c'mon!

Re: Broke my wrist!!!
 

Maybe you need a wristwatch.

Nah but seriously, sorry to hear about what happened to you. Hope you feel better soon!
