Was out earlier, got a text off wor lass, 'better come home, halle's hurt her leg on the trampoline'. thinking it would be nowt, i come straight home, leg had a bit of lump and bruise, so thought better take to her to A&E to get it checked. Got there, doc said better X-Ray it, turns out, she's broke her tibia poor bairn.

Ouch mate ...

Thats one of the worst Bone's to break (More nerves that any other bone)

Hopes she alright ... Nasty and my right leg is pulsing lookng at them pics ..

Fiddy

Cheers everyone. she's just woke up there, sobbing her little heart out, said 'dad, it really realy hurts', there's nowt i can do either, thats the worst bit. doc said she isnt allowed to walk on it, or put any weight on it, which is difficult for her to understand

not nice for anyone nevermind a bairn so hope for a speedy recovery

Fiddy

Its got all the proper safety gear dan. its a big one, like i said, 14ft, so when we were looking for one, i made sure it had all the gear, its all enclosed, big net all the way round, all the poles are covered in thick foam, all the springs are covered, you couldnt hurt yourself on the actual trampoline if you tried, its a beast of a thing, ive even been on it to make sure its sturdy enough, and im 6ft and the neck end of 18 stone. its pretty much exactally the same as this one.

As far as how it happened, she landed funny mate, she was bouncing away happy as larry, next thing, she screams, and she's laid out on it.

Fiddy

cheers for the well wishes everyone, greatly appreciated.

gary fraser

poor wee thing, but at least she young and should heal really quickly my nephew broke his arm when he was 3 they never even put it in plaster just a sling took about 4 weeks and he was back to normal mate, so heres wishing her a speedy recovery, but as said above im dreading gettin a phone call like that about 1 of my kids.

DanW@FastFord

Heck! You think you're eliminating the risk by getting one like that (well, that's what I thought anyway).

Hope she's not in too much pain.

steviecossie

hope she's not in too much pain and manages a quick recovery mate

Fiddy

Exactally mate, i made sure it was about the safest one we could find, so there was no chance of getting hurt on it, like i said, its safe as houses, you couldnt hurt yourself on any part of the actual trampoline if you tried. we have had it a good 8 month, she plays on it pretty much everyday, never had so much as a scratch, so its defo caught me off guard, thats why when wor lass text me saying she had hurt her self on it, i got into a false sense of security and thought, 'na, it will be nowt', how wrong i was.

EADetailing

Get better soon

Mrs T

She is only little

My little one fell of her trampoline the other day i thought she broke her arm, hope she feels better soon

Dar-rst

im being a lil dumb here but isnt this the lil bone attached to the ankle?

if so then i defo feel for her man as ive just gotten over breaking mine back in january, and still cant walk properly and its still slightly swollen and goes dark bruised colour when do alot of walking or anything using it alot,

all the best to her on a fast recovery, hope it hasnt needed plating like myself too...

TOMMY_RS

Poor little thing, hope the pain eases quickly

Sympathies for you and the wean - not being able to help is the worst thing.

I'm feeling pretty sorry for myself at the moment though, because on the first excursion day off the cruise ship I slipped on a jetty and have broken three bones in my left ankle, including both the long-bones.

Taken to Jamaica overnight and operated on the following evening, then two nights in hospital before discharging me to a local hotel that wasn't at all disabled-friendly where I was stuck for three more nights.

Repatriated via USA where we had a 7.5hour delay (thank you Icelandic volcano), before arriving in Manchester at 2.30 yesterday afternoon and driving 4.5 hours home.

Saw the doc this am and have to go to hospital tomorrow am - she wants to sign me off for 2 months but I'll go mad!!! Think kids will heal quicker though.

Kieron

Bad news, I hope she recovers soon and the pain isn't too much. Not nice being a helpless parent.

Fiddy

Bit of an update, just spent the last two hours back at the hospital. she had to go to the fracture clinic today to get it looked at by the specilaist, last night was just A&E, so all they could do was X-RAY it to check it, and put on a tempory cast. the specialist today showed us the X-RAY on a computer, its a big old break, he said he is surprised the bone didnt break the skin, and also said its, in his words, a very bad break. said she is going to have to have it in plaster for at least 8 weeks, and cant put any weight on it at all in that time. said she is going to need a wheelchair with a leg extension to get around for the 8 weeks, so i said can we have one, he says no, we dont supply them you will have to go to the red cross and hire one, so that was 20 mile drive and Ł20 to hire it per month. she has to go back once a week for an X-RAY to see how it is healing, so looks like its going to be an interesting couple of months lol.

She kicked up a fuss for a pink cast, but they only had green or white, so she went with green

hope she gets well soon mate - i have broken a few bones and its defo very unpleasant and uncomfortable

Fiddy

Cheers fella. aye, its awkward for her to say the least.

Joshy

all the best to you both cant imagin what its like

Bungle

Bless her hope she recovers well, Its kind of put the shits up me to be honest as my girls have a 14ft trampoline and there only 2 and 4 how old is she?

Fiddy

She's 4 mate. ive got three older daughters, aged 6, 9 and almost 11. there always on it, not all at the same obviously, but as i said above, it gets used pretty much every day, and the 8 months we have had it, non of them have even got a scratch.

Bungle

I know what ya mean mate they've had theirs about 8 months too and there always on it with no bother its just when you see something like this you think fuck and dont want to let them on it again

Can't wrap them in cotton wool though eh? I could probably deal with the fact they'd hurt there selves but the thought of them being in pain and asking me to help them and the fact there'd be nothing i could do would make me feel shit and drive me mad, All the best to her mate
