Greg picked me up from Casino railway station, after I flew in from Phuket ....teeth all done!
But ....Greg had a very sore and swollen leg from the ankle up, ....apparently a couple of days before I got back the dog we were sitting wrapped his chain around gregs leg and pulled him over. He got a tiny weeny cut on his leg.
By Monday his leg was in a real bad way. Gregs seen some wounds caused by bullets nd shrapnel, and he recognised the colour. He was also chilly, not hungry, and felt woozy. So finally after a day of me saying he should see a doctor, he saw a doctor! Doc said pack pyjamas, be at the hospital in two hours, I'm admitting you. Cellulitis. Serious if ignored. Greg was even saying if he had to lose a leg at least it was his left leg so he could still drive!
He's been on three antibiotics on an IV for two days. He's now out of hospital, but I am still concerned as his leg still looks nasty to me. He has to take two different A/Bs orally 4 times a day, so he's not out of the woods yet.
The country hospital is really good, everyone was nice, but it made me realise that in a situation like this I ......on my own....would not be able to hitch up...mainly because of my hand injury. So we are going to have to work something out!
It's a lovely area, we drove here on the Bruxner Highway, which with our rig was hard work, and of course Greg wasn't feeling well but he hadn't told me that bit!
We plan to stay in Tenterfield for a couple of days before going to Inglewood to spend a week with friends. I am hoping we can do a couple of 4WDrives in the area.
So, that's the latest! And thanks Dot for helping to keep me sane
Cheers
Dee
