I feel sooo bad
I was walking round to the clinic with my sister for her first midwife appointment (her husband couldn't get the time of work). Neither of us thought it was
that slippy out
When she went down I thought she had just twisted her ankle, but she couldn't get up, I tried to help her but she said she could'nt move. I thought she was being dramatic when she said she heard a crack, she thought she had broken it
But I thought said had just sprained it. I phoned the clinic and a midwife and a couple of nurses came out to help but they are not allowed to treat offsite. They said she needed an ambulance, I began to call but it was busy and as I was waiting for an answer an ambulance drove past and the nurses flagged them down. The paramedics cut off her boot and she was suddenly in alot more pain, they gave her gas and air. I rang my brother who was luckily off work and he drove round to us, I had my 2 youngest kids and the stroller with me so I could'nt get in the ambulance with her. Once they loaded her onto the stretcher they examined her and said she had DISLOCATED her ankle
I feel so guilty for not believing her at first
and I feel bad because if she had drove round on her own this would'nt have happened but she walked becuse we did'nt have time to put the car seats in her car to drive round. She was'nt sure how to get there by car so I offered to walk round with her. I know she is worried about her baby too-she is only 6-8 weeks gone and I tried to reassure her that the baby is tucked up in plenty of padding and she kinda landed on her legs if you know what I mean
I'm just sat here waiting for news
I need to be here to go and pick my other kids up from school in 2 hours time and by the time I got the hospital I'd have to come back
I just needed to get it all out
Thanks for being there.
