i remember during the year i looked after my daughter while she went through chemo in the royal Melbourne we had to change rooms...

their was a older nurse at the head of the bed and a younger one at the foot... my daughter was on the bed and i was following with the suitcases.

as they tried to get into the room they hit a snag and had to back out, i was unprepared and the young nurse while bending over backed into me as i was up against the wall.

the older nurse said "watch out you backed right into dad".

i replied "that's ok i like that quality in a women"

the old duck craked up and the young one went beetroot colored for some unexplained reason.

no one's heard from ben today?

i suppose he will have to be driven home from Melbourne if he is still scheduled to be home today?

i keep popping in hopeful he would have left a msg so we all know hes home and doing well.

haven't spoken to him today but yeah when he comes home he'll be driven.  His left hand has basically no strength and will have a sling on for weeks before he has rehab to make it all work properly again.  Bens hoping to be back to normal in 6 months.  And also said from now on he's Mr Safety

ben rang me today and i had a good 5 min talk with him.

the angle grinder bit hard into his arm pit. he severed some nerves and a artery and the docs think he lost about 6 liters of blood.

his mun and dad were not home at the time and the only thing he thought about was getting help before he passed out. he made it to the road and flagged down a passing motorist.

he remembers looking down and seeing he was covered in blood from head to toe.


the docs say he can go home tomorrow to rest up a bit.

good news.



Holy hell, bet that was painfull, sounds like hes lucky someone was on the road at the time, however, you gota watch those angle grinders these days-they can kill ya...anyway get well fast Ben, the beddie boys are missing ya mate
