[natalielongstaff]

he wasnt a fault but was in a head on collision with another car...he has fractured his pelvis and dilocated his hip.he will be operated on thursday to pate his hip back together but has to stay in hospital for 6 weeks and off work for 5 mths...they say he will never be able to play football again either.( i think he was lucky it wasnt worse tho to be honest)

ive been frantic since then organising visits cos my mum cant drive !

if i cant get on the puter much can i wish you all a happy christmas XX

UPDATE 28/12/04
good news...my brother was released from hospital on xmas eve,he is much better now but it was scary for a while!! he spent 2 days in itu after the op but then he recovered in leaps and bounds ( not literally tho lol) he is on crutches and cant do a lot for himself yet but its nice that he is at home.

i hope that everyone had a lovely christmas

so glad to hear he survived!

Now for the hard part ... recovery! Let him know that the physical therapists have been called pain & torture ... by me after a nasty car accident!

Do take care of yourself. It's easy to let yourself get run down while on hospital duty.

Let him know that folks in the USA are praying for him!
