Neil is finally home from the hospital. He has a contusion on the brain, intracranial hemorrhage and a fractured orbital bone. He will be okay but no physical activity or alcohol for a month and no driving, outings, visitors, overstimulation for at least this week/until he feels better. Blogging will be light this week while I try to regroup after traveling to NYC Saturday, rushing back yesterday morning and spending all night/day at the hospital. I’m exhausted and need a break.
Racing. He will not be doing his 10k next week or the one 2 weeks after that. Also due to the injury and the timing we both will not be doing the Disney half marathon. This injury will interfere with his training plan and his energy levels so we have decided not to add the extra mental and physical stress of training for a long distance run. I am hoping that we will be able to run the 5k Turkey Trot together on Thanksgiving and that we will be able to still run our first half marathon together at Disney within the next year.
It’s crazy how one event can change everything.
I’m thinking of you both. Here’s to a speedy recovery. He’s lucky to have such a loving partner at his side.
Oh my goodness! I hope he has a fast recovery and you take care of yourself too.
Oh my, wish Neil a speedy recovery with little pain. Take care, Lindsay
oh dear! All the best for a quick and easy recovery.
Aw, I’m sorry to see that. I hope he has a speedy recovery (and remember to take care of yourself too!)
I’m so sorry to hear about his accident 🙁 I hope you both get the rest you need. Pug Hugs!
