my poor tara!!
in General chat
hi ladies, well, as you can see, our comp is officially back up and running now, woo hoo. but my first post isnt a happy one im afraid!!
our new back garden doesnt have a side gate yet, so my inlaws borrowed an old iron gate to put across the passageway for now as we are awaiting our new side gate. anyway, as it was nice today, i took the girls into the garden to play, and they loved it,but just as we were packing up to come in, tara decided to get out of the little ride in car, crawl up to the gate and pull herself to standing at it. it then tipped over onto her. omg, my poor little girly. i felt so bad. we took her to casualty where they said she was fine (thank goodness), and will just have some pretty nasty bruises on her face. she hasnt a mark anywhere else, its all on her face. im just so glad shes ok, but we got some funny looks at asda when we were shopping!! in fact its funny how people make sure they dont comment on scars or marks (dont think they could make out if it was scars or scratches), everyone we met just said "ahh, hasnt she got lovely hair" it made me laugh.
anyway, sorry for the essay, just had to let it out im afraid.
hope you are all well.
chat soon

We've missed you!!! I hope Tara is OK, kids are resilient aren't they?? Try arnica gel for the briusing.
Catch up with you soon

Em couldn't believe it when i showed her the pic you sent me and it does look quite impressive as marks go! But i'm sure it will heal fine, i think carolnies idea of arnica gel is a good one.
Big hugs to you all xxxx
Welcome back to PP.
I'm sorry to read of Tara's accident, also sending you cyber hugs. I hope you are all ok otherwise.
Take care, xx
How is Tara today, hope she is ok. That must have been such a shock for you both, sending you big cyber hugs.
Also Welcome back xx
Saw the pics - no wonder you were so shocked but don't blame yourself, she'll bounce back. Arnica gel is fantastic and as it contains no chemical painkillers you can still give her calpol.
Cuddles to the girls x x
