Hello everyone. Have been busy and not logging in at all really. DH broke his collar bone a month ago, turns out he has a half inch piece of bone embedded in his shoulder muscle.....

Thanks everyone, I hope he recovers soon too, he is a sook minnieb, take pity on me. My three year old is much tougher. In only a month he has broken his arm and leg in the space of 10 minutes and had them heal up perfectly without me even knowing they had broken, had the doctor re-attatch his head after it "fell off", survived being bitten in half by a shark while out fishing with is dad, and managed to have me pop his eye back in after it was poked out by the cat and had his leg chopped off by a spider. DH could learn a thing or two about being tough from him (where do 3 year olds get their imaginations from???). Flowers for you all, and thanks for your thoughts, I am sure I will miss his snoring all night while he is away (NOT) but will miss having him about the place. The surgeon is excellent, but DH will want to retire in the safety of his garden, but after hearing about your weeding accident, minnieb, I suppose he will have to go back to work.

Oh my goodness friend... I will keep you, your husband and your little ones in my prayers! I praise GOD that even though you have to travel 3 hours to a hospital, that GOD provided a place for the surgery. May the LORD comfort you all through this. I also pray for the surgeon that will be preforming the operation... we are standing together believing for a good report when you come back to chat with us. ;-) Blessings up on you friend.

you poor guys its hard the way the meddical is at the moment. I used to swing on ladders for a living but broke my arm by pulling a tinny weed out of the garden I fell on it.
men can be sooks or heros, my husband drove home 3hour drive the day after having his shoulder done ,do you have to go to brisbane from Emerald or can he have it closer ,he will want to go back to minning after this ,take care and try not to worry to much,wish we could help
our thoughts will be with you********

Not Brissy, that's about 8 hours drive. Off to Rockhampton. Maybe I can send him off with a shopping list for a quick trip into Spotlight.

After 20 years of working underground in a coal mine, and getting all sorts of aches and pains, thought he would get out before something bad happened to him. He got a job as a postman a few months ago. Six weeks into the job he came off his little red motorbike and broke his collar bone a month ago. Had a check up yesterday and they found the bone was not healing at all and there is a chunk of bone that has to be removed in surgery next week before really bad damage is done. I will be without him for a few days as he has to travel 3 hours to get to a surgeon as our hospital here is really quite sad and sorry. Probably wont be here much next week either as I will have the two little ones by myself. Speaking of which, my 14 month old is now taking more steps everyday. My son just turned 3 on Wednesday as well, so it has been very busy here indeed. Well, hello to everyone, and hope you have all been keeping safe and well. Thoughts to Meganne's DH and crew. And how is cutiepie and her new treasures?
