Be Careful Out There (UK)

[Lyndy]

As temperatures fall in UK I listened to warnings about falls on ice and made a mental note. I have been trying to walk every day while on chemo (carbo/Caelyx for 3rd recurrence).

i was about 200 metres from home yesterday when I looked down and realised the pavement which had looked fine was actually icy… the next moment I was flat on my back. My left arm is badly broken and I am having surgery tomorrow.

i feel so stupid! Usually I walk in local woods where the surface is more forgiving, I just happened to be on a pavement in a frost pocket.

So if you are pushing yourself to get out there just take care!!

Oh Lyndy... I am so sorry to hear you need surgery, broken arm... Must've been really painful! Me too, I usually walk near by woods or beach, beautiful isn't it.

I nearly slipped yesterday on pavement. Thank you very much for reminder.

Thinking of you, and sending you lots of love and speedy recovery ❤️

Sorry to hear you fell & broke your arm, as if you haven't enough going on already. Frost over here in Ireland too, but temperatures are nothing as low as you have over in the UK. Hope the op goes well & you will be back out walking again in no time X

[Yorkiepudd]

Oh Lyndy that sounds painful and what rotten luck. Hope all goes well with the surgery and here's to a speedy recovery xx

Oh Lyndy, I am so sorry! The last thing you need is a broken arm at this point. You are so generous with your help to others on this site.

I fell on ice and hit my head hard about nine years ago. It was scary! I hope the surgery has gone well and you can start to mend and that it doesn’t interfere with your chemo! Xx

Oh Lyndy sorry to hear you’ve had a fall, I nearly slipped over on the pavement walking over a load of slippery leaves! 🍁 hope all goes well and wishing you a speedy recovery xx

Hello Lyndy. You might feel stupid but you are not. Accidents happen even when every conceivable risk has been considered.

You’re bound to have frustrating/low times with this latest trauma but you come across as an incredibly strong and resilient woman.

Hoping all goes well with the surgery and wishing you as comfortable and successful a recovering as possible.
