Poor Doris...

Most of you will kinow I have an eldrley neighbour (Doris, she is in her eightys)She phone me a while ago, saying she had cut her leg, nd as it was bleeding heavily, could I go over and put a plaster on it...Doris can barely walk.....
I went over and she had sliced her leg with a garden slab she was trying to move...

I put a bandage on it, then went up to the doctors surgery, see if I could get a nurse to call..(Its only 5mins up to the village) A doctor came out, and took her to the surgery, she is just back with 5 stitches!

!and a big box of AB...

Poor Doris

She is lucky to have a good neighbour like you Moli.....what a good idea of yours to give her your phone number.

I hope she will feel better soon, it must have shaken her up quite a bit.......

Pity there aren't more neighbours like you Moli. Hope Doris is okay.

You've made a rod for your back there Moli - old people you're never rid of 'em.
Seriously though I am glad she's okay, elderly people's legs have a tendency to bleed especially varicous veins.
I bet she will be moving the slab again as soon as your back is turned - independance is a hard thing to admit you are loosing.

Glad she's fine. Karen

She is a very independant lady Kazz, she has finally realise she cannot do thing like she used to..She cannot walk wothout her stick, and then only for minutes...I wait till she asks for help, I don't interfere...
Saying that, she is a lovely lady...

Maybe for Christmas you should get her one of those "sack trucks" so she can move her slabs easier.

You're a good neighbor, Moli! Hope she's better soon.
