my journaling reads:
Your accident scared the living daylights out of me and although you tried to hide it, I know you were frightened too. The first 24hrs were terrifying, but at that stage, we didnt realise just how serious your injuries were. It was only when you underwent an MRI scan, that the extent of the damage became clear. Within hours of the scan, you were whisked into surgery to remove the crushed vertebrae and to relieve the building pressure on your spinal cord. As if this werent painful enough, a few days later you then underwent a second operation, during which a medieval looking halo frame was fitted. It truly was a brutal looking piece of equipment, secured to your skull with screws through your skin, its purpose to restrict any kind of head movement and hopefully allow your injuries to heal. And thankfully, you did heal.

Thanks for looking!
