Finally home from many hours at the ER. My husband tripped somehow and fell on the last two basement stairs and landed on the concrete basement floor, on his face! He will be fine, thank goodness ...but for now, he has two gashes above his right eye and below hi eyebrow, resulting in 9 stitches total. They did a CT scan to make sure there was no direct eye injury, nor a bleed, nor any cracked or chipped orbital bone. A couple of centimetres higher and he could have cracked his skull open ...a fraction lower and he could have lost his eye. He was lucky it was only 2 steps down, as well. It could have been a LOT worse! I watched his face darken with bruising, and he has quite a goose egg above his eye. Amazingly, his glasses, once all the blood was rinsed off, are totally intact. smhI am so grateful for his Guardian Angel.
Oh...sending good thoughts!
truly blessed...may the recovery be smooth and relatively pain free...
Best wishes for his speedy recovery.
Oh goodness, his Guardian Angel was working overtime!So glad and grateful that he wasn't hurt worse than he was. Godspeed his healing.
Good to hear that he is going to be ok from the injuries. The fallout from spending so much time in the ED will take a few days, and some good sleep, to smooth out.
Glad that he is ok.
I hope he heals fast; I know you'll take good care of him.
winces I'm so glad it wasn't worse. Healing vibes from this way too.
Oh no! Healing vibes sent his way!
gosh! i'm glad it wasn't worse, sending big time mojo for his recovery!
Jeepers, I did something similar many years ago and had the most amazing black eye along with the grazes. I'm so glad his glasses didn't smash and damage him further, and that no serious damage has been sustained. Hope he won't feel sore for too long.
Goodness .. I do hope he heals up fast, yikes!
😮
I'm so glad it wasn't any worse!
Here's hoping for a speedy recovery.
All the best for his speedy and full recovery.
holy moly. i'm glad it's not worse than it as.
Sending good thoughts , i hope he heals fast
