Decks are more dangerous than motorbikes

[Mom]

Yes folks it is true, I really think that ACC should be targeting home owners with timber decks and sending them a bill to help cover the cost of treatment for deck related accidents. Our deck has claimed another statistic and this one is going to cost plenty :D

Last Sunday morning I was walking on the deck, as you do, when I felt a distinct snap in my foot followed by an intense white hot pain. Some nice bruising appeared almost immediately. Being the tough guy I am, I have hobbled around unable to weight bear on my left foot all week until finally I had to go and see the doc.

Happy Xmas! I have ruptured my plantar ligament, am currently bandaged from knee to toes and on crutches :yes: Fabulous! I have to have a scan done next week to assess the extent of the damage. It will be months in the healing and may even need surgery to repair :pinch:

So here I am the day before Xmas, unable to navigate my way at any great speed with shopping to finish (food type) and the 101 other things that you need to be doing at this time of the year.

I have all my kids home tomorrow and my Mommy too, I am cooking the hell feed. Well actually that is not true, they are cooking the hell feed and I am going to be sitting with my foot up being waited on. Lucky for me I have a friend coming too who appreciates the need to keep your glass filled :D

So you guys take it easy out there, decks are dangerous, so dangerous that they have the potential to injure you badly enough you wont be riding your bike for a long time :weep:

[vifferman]

On no - that's no good! :no:
Howdja manage that?

Heal up quick!!

[Mom]

On no - that's no good! :no:
Howdja manage that?

Heal up quick!!

My rude children reckon it is because I am old :Pokey:

The reality is there are some small deviations in the heights of the decking planks, I just managed to find one that caught my foot in exactly the right place :doh:

[The Everlasting]

Oh no,and at the worst time of the year too!!


Hope you heal fast!!!


Who would have thought a harmless walk on the deck could cause an acc claim.



Merry Christmas..:p

[Okey Dokey]

What bad luck for you! Heal quickly and well, and enjoy the holidays anyway!:sunny:

[yungatart]

You should drink more...it means you are relaxed when you trip...and you don't usually hurt anything...if you do, you're so pissed you don't notice!

Is that 2 ACC claims in your household for that same deck now?

[Mully]

ATGATT.

Had you been wearing your boots, the injury wouldn't have been as severe....

Never mind. Heal up quick and send Mark to do the shopping....

[vifferman]

My rude children reckon it is because I am old :Pokey:

The reality is it's because you're children are riude - blame them.
My kids reckon I'm old too, but #2Son also reckons I'm a dick.
(He's probably right, but he's also a rude, ungrateful toad. :girlfight:)

[Mom]

Is that 2 ACC claims in your household for that same deck now?

Yes it is deck 2 us 0 so far. Like I said decks are friggen dangerous. Mind you I was stone cold sober when I did my injury, the same can not be said for Maha :killingme


ATGATT.

Had you been wearing your boots, the injury wouldn't have been as severe....

Never mind. Heal up quick and send Mark to do the shopping....

Boots! Wish I had been wearing something on my feet, that is for sure. Normally at that time of the day I would have had slippers on, but it was hot, so I was bare footed. He is going to do the shopping when he gets home from work.

[Mom]

My eldest daughter called me a GIMP if you please :girlfight:

[gijoe1313]

If you wanted a holiday or a break, all you had to do was ask your family! No need for such drastic measures sheesh! :pinch:

Not riding your bike for months? :gob: I think my brain fell out and my heart just went cold ... :baby:

[Mully]

My eldest daughter called me a GIMP if you please :girlfight:

ROFL.

Short for "Gimp with a Limp"?

[Mom]

ROFL.

Short for "Gimp with a Limp"?

:spanking: I got her back though :D She is currently driving to Thames to pick my Mommy up for me.

[Naki Rat]

Bugger! I injured that ligament years back through road running further than was good for me. Separated from the heel bone slightly so know what you're experiencing.

Good excuse to put feet up and be fed alcohol - for purely medicinal purposes of course :whistle:

Have a great Xmas and work on getting yourself operational for 2010 :2thumbsup

[p.dath]

Why don't you put "Deck Repair" on the Christmas wish list? :)

Either wait for the third person to be injured ...

[MSTRS]

After the successful trial run, Mom has issued a NY invite to Nick the Prick to pop round to get decked...
















ps - what a silly thing to do, Anne. Take it easy. Try not to damage anything else.

[ynot slow]

Does the bloody deck lead from the bloody kitchen,if not serves ya right for leaving said kitchen,Mark shorten the chain,you know the consequences dude.












Oh have a good xmas.

[Big Dave]

The Mom stood on the burdened deck
Whence Maha went to the shed;
The pain that lit the footsies wreck
means serving breakfast in bed.

[Owl]

Does the bloody deck lead from the bloody kitchen,if not serves ya right for leaving said kitchen,Mark shorten the chain,you know the consequences dude.

Don't think I'd like to be in your shoes on Mom's next visit to Palmy.:no:

Heal up soon Mom and if you do need surgery, tell them you want it done under local anesthetic:msn-wink: Doc's reaction will be something like:eek5:

[MSTRS]

The Mom lay on the bloody deck
Twisting her face in pain
She called out to her lovely man
"The bloody thing has struck again"

We aren't laughing at you Anne. Really.

Bastards! :laugh:

Its alright, you will all keep :love:

[Beemer]

I hear you - my downfall (literally!) was a flight of stairs at the council building! Been off work since November 27 with a haematoma on my leg that hurts like a bastard, and sprained ligaments in my hand!

At least I should get some money out of ACC!

[allycatz]

Hows about when you ride a bike into your deck...I did that last year....jammed my ankle between bike and deck...oh the pain and the embarassment....hope you have a speedy recovery

[Skyryder]

Why don't you put "Deck Repair" on the Christmas wish list? :)

Either wait for the third person to be injured ...

Go on the dole and apply for grant to get a new deck. If they turn ya down go to the media. That works.


Hope ya mend soon.


Skyryder

[Mikkel]

Bummer, I hope you'll heal quickly. Alas, soft tissue injuries can be a long time in healing. :(

There's only one thing for it: ACC levies on soft-tissue...

[martybabe]

That's a bugger eh, hope you heal well and quick super girl. If it helps our Chrimbo plans just took a nose dive too, grrr.

Have a good one babe and put your feet up (doesn't sound like you've got much choice really). Thoughts kisses and Hugs from the Martybabe household.:hug:

[scissorhands]

I've got a big deck

[Toaster]

Mum take good care of those injuries and heal fast. Have a great day Christmas Day and big manly hugs to Mark too.

Cam and family.

p.s. Yes decks are dangerous! I tripped over the edge of the deck as I got off my motorcycle dropping my beer can into my marajuana plants.

[Edbear]

My rude children reckon it is because I am old :Pokey:

The reality is there are some small deviations in the heights of the decking planks, I just managed to find one that caught my foot in exactly the right place :doh:

So you got decked, then... Gotta watch those small deviants... :whistle:


:spanking: I got her back though :D She is currently driving to Thames to pick my Mommy up for me.

How cruel you are! That's a fate worse than death at this time of the year! :(

(Not the getting the Mummy, bit the driving to Thames bit)

[Grahameeboy]

The truth is that Mom has recently disovered Media stardom and her feet have not touched the ground for a while so her feet were on unfamiliar turf and now I discover that she will be incapacitated for 6 months......well that is what she told Markl....sounds like a classic case of BooHooywood

[Mom]

(Not the getting the Mummy, bit the driving to Thames bit)

She had a trouble free trip there and back. Took just on 2 hours to get back from Thames, which is pretty good going really. The traffic is still moving freely up here, though they reckon it will be crap later on today. The last one to worry about is my son whois riding up aftre he finishes work tonight, hopefully he will get a good trip north too.

[Maha]

You should drink more...it means you are relaxed when you trip...and you don't usually hurt anything...if you do, you're so pissed you don't notice!

Is that 2 ACC claims in your household for that same deck now?

Yip, but at least I was pissed...and didn't know about the pain till next day...:baby:


ATGATT.

Had you been wearing your boots, the injury wouldn't have been as severe....

Never mind. Heal up quick and send Mark to do the shopping....

Shopping complete, not alot of stress to be honest, even got some help from the shop owner...:banana:

Hmmm.... Back to the drawing board on that one then...

Yup, hopefully your son will ride to arrive in the same condition he left.

Very sorry to hear about your wee accident, though. No fun at all when you must have had so much fun planned. :argh:

All the best to you all. :hug:

[hayd3n]

we had a drunk here one night , he fell over the deck and cracked his head open on the neighbours door step

[ynot slow]

No fun for mom,but you're lucky,know of a guy who was at his daughters 16th birthday,the edge of deck gave way,he fell a metre or so,but rolled down a 5mtr bank,wheelchair bound now.

[Mom]

Apparently I will survive, my crutch technique sucks, I need to ice my foot more, I over supervise and I am still old! God I love having my kids home :love:

Oh, but my glass is empty :lol:

Maha!@#$% oh shit ! thats was bewdiful!
Mom I sincerely hope that the ankle/leg comes right soon, meanwhile i would presume to prescribe copious quantities of spirited liquid and a modicum of active movement, relating to getting siad liquid from table top to mouth!
Merry Christmas the James family( he , he, I know better, but am going with the news reporters, who must be right if they say, it!)
Take care.

:lol:

Does this mean no lap dancing at the party?

[scumdog]

Oh, but my glass is empty :lol::scratch::confused:

Does that mean you're COMPLETELY negative - like as in worse than 'the glass is half empty?

[AllanB]

Can anyone else hear Carvers mind ticking over - his next stunt will be riding his motorcycle over a deck :lol::lol:

Sorry to hear of your injury Mum - hopefully you get lots of goodies for Christmas to make up for it!

[newbould]

You'll need to strap up the riding boot real tight on that one.

No decks is more dangerous - the flat in dunners with a back door 3 meters above the ground - no deck - party - death.

[hayd3n]

[Mom]

Well I will be ok if I am sitting down :whistle:

[Laava]

Hi Anne, haven't read this thread but thought I'd add my condolences too! Slippery deck was it? Gotta watch out for those! Have a good NYE party!

[Big Dave]

Oh! Decks! Blardy Kiwis - I thought you said di.......never mind.

[Mom]

Oh! Decks! Blardy Kiwis - I thought you said di.......never mind.

Are you telling me I speak like Kaiwai?

Actually - I thought the last TV bit was rather polished.

Man airlifted to hospital after accident on Deck.
The Wellington-based Westpac Rescue Helicopter flew a seriously injured man from Stokes Valley yesterday evening.

The 36 year old Stokes Valley man fell aprox 3 - 4 metres off of a deck onto concrete at his home around 6 pm. He was initially knocked unconscious from the fall.

The Wellington Free Ambulance paramedics who responded to the scene requested the helicopter to transport the man when he was found to be suffering from head injuries.

The Westpac Rescue Helicopter landed in a small park near the mans home and transported him to Wellington Hospital Emergency Department.

I thought I should update this thread. I have been off crutches now for 2 weeks. Now that has to be the best feeling. The bottom of my foot is held together with about 2 metres of strapping tape, that gets replaced every few days, and I have to wear "proper" shoes at all times. I attempted cheating and wearing jandals last Monday and have been paying the price ever since with pain and a creeping bad attitude as a result :innocent:

However, it is improving and as long as I dont push my luck and blow it again it should be all good. I was a good girl and used my crutches for longer than I really wanted to, that has made the difference in the healing, no orthopeadic specialist for me as a result :clap: I am able to walk reasonably well, bit of a limp on sometimes (it hurts you see) even with my "proper" shoes. Uneven ground is the pits :yes: Absolutely friggen hopeless in bare feet/jandals and to a lesser extent my bike boots and I am not not confident of its stability to ride my own bike. I cant imagine putting my foot down and taking my weight as well as my bike, and I cant do tip toe, or take weight on the ball of my foot. I am not prepared to re-injure myself and my physio has warned me about over doing it, so I am being a good girl :crazy:

I cant tell you how many people have said to me, "OH, did you do that on your bike?"

The Physio costs me $25 a visit, I am happy to pay that. The Ultrasound was free! FREE? How come that was free? I paid $165 for an ultrasound of my boobies not so long ago, and would have been happy to contribute some to the cost of that for my foot, but no, that was free :yes:

Weird eh?

[MSTRS]

You? A good girl? Who's really posting on Mom's log-in?

[Mom]

You? A good girl? Who's really posting on Mom's log-in?

You have no idea just how difficult it has been to be good, and just how friggen frustrating it has been. You should feel sorry for Maha, he is the one that has had to cope with me feeling really, truely not happy, for something that I cant make better and neither can he! Poor bastard :love:

[Mikkel]

I thought I should update this thread. I have been off crutches now for 2 weeks. Now that has to be the best feeling.

Yup, recovering to the point of being able to do more stuff the way you used to is a great feeling. I know where you're coming from. All the best wishes for the rest of your rehabilitation - make sure you use it all as much as you can (and your physiotherapist recommends), a little pain now makes it all that much better down the road.

Trust me, I dont mind a bit of pain with reward. I will push to grow, but not to injure ;)

I have a raft of pain giving exercises from the physio. He was horrible enough to tell me to repeat something to fatigue :pinch: What follows that is cramp in the night though :pinch:

I am working hard to get better. I dont suit a limp at all.

[DMNTD]

...I will push to grow...

Well, push harder! ;)

[MyGSXF]

by crikey.. jus saw this thread... haven't been round here much for a while... too damn busy.. :doh: :lol: glad top hear you're healing well hun!!! & that good man of yours has been earning his keep!!! :doctor:

I too am a statistic of decks. Good to hear you are healing MOM

Grip Tread............what a load of BS! It was winter, I had only a little bit of lawn, and the deck was higher than the small yard, so could not see any ice anywhere. Took the washing out and slipped on the first step, down to the last, bruises for Africa! Ended up that I smashed a disk in my back, and had to have one replaced. Trying to get that on ACC, was bedlem as I did not go running to the doctor at first, as I thought I was a clutz and just badly bruised, it was a couple of months later that all the back pain started, and I ended up taking ACC to the disputes tribunal to prove my plight was due to the fall! I now know that if I hurt my finger, I'll be running to my doc to have it documented LOL

Pffft! This thread is not about you, ya know?

Well done you, although knowing you as I do, I find it hard to believe you are being a good girl :blip:
Keep up those exercises...you'll soon be as gorgeous as me :drool:

[Mom]

Keep up those exercises...you'll soon be as gorgeous as me :drool:

Insanely I am not as young as I used to be :weird: that is what the Physio said today anyways :spanking: State the bleeding obvious why dont you!

It appears my foot has forgotten what the ground feels like when it is on it and wobbles around like friggen jelly if I am not wearing my "shoes". This amazing discovery made last weekend when I wanted to relax at the beach and have a swim. Nope, I cant walk barefoot at all, nope I dont like walking in jandals, shoes are fine. Cant swim in shoes though so off to the chemist to buy some strapping tape. Strap the sucker up and yes I can manage in jandals and bare feet I just hobble is all.

Hence the old comment :pinch: So now I have a nother set of excercises to do. It is progressing really well, but how friggen tedious is the process. Being good is a challenge that I am rising to :yes:

[caseye]

I'd pay good money to see you rising to the challenge of "Being Good" Get well soon Mom! Be boot camp for that foot otherwise.
Wish you guys had been in Taumaranui, I'd've liked to have seen the look on the trolls face when you let him have it.
Go look at the main thread for the BFTP, if you haven't already.
Be seeing you soon M & M's lol.

[Mom]

So, I am sick of wearing "proper" shoes all the time. I have been working on general rehab of my foot and can walk with my soft soled slippers on, in the house without a limp. I can also take my weight on one foot for a short while too now. Progress is mind numbingly slow.

Tonight I got home from work and took off my shoes and socks! That is such a great feeling! Went outside and stood on the grass for a bit. Did a few laps of the back yard. Decided to test my bare feet on the concrete. I can happily report I walked all of 30 metres tonight, slowly and deliberately properly in bare feet on the concrete footpath!

Came home and put my shoes back on and walked 3 kms cos I could.

Progress is sweet!

[Laava]

So tonights lesson is that it is exactly 1.5km to the Bridgehouse?

[Mom]

So tonights lesson is that it is exactly 1.5km to the Bridgehouse?

Piss off! It is all up hill home from there you cheeky prick!

[Toaster]

Progress is sweet!

Progress! at last and well done that wee girly.
Be seeing you at the Westpac run then .
Take care with that foot/s? and not to many walks to the bar, aye it'll undo all the good walking work.Te he he.

[yungatart]

Thats good news about your foot, even if it has been a long time coming...
Hang in there, love.
