hospital, toes and healing

hiya guys
 
 I've decided I want to mix my blog up a bit you know share things that's happened to me for people in that position now or have been to have someone who has been through or done the same things so today my post is all about myyyy *drum roll please* broken toe.
 
for those of you who follow me on instagram, twitter, Facebook, or even know me, you must know about my toe as I'm 100% percent complaining about it and how I believe I still need a operation to have reconstruction done.
 
let me give you a back ground into what actually happened.
in June 2014 me and my boyfriend (matt) was play fighting and as always I got far to carried away and tried to kick him, as he moved back wards to avoid it my foot went flying into the wall and as he lent back he crushed my foot and my toe snapped, automatically I knew my toe was broken and I crumbled to the floor in fit of tears, at the time I was in a state of hysterics and matts was also freaking out as we was home alone and there was absolutely no way of getting to a hospital, you see we live in a village out side of a small town called bridgnorth located in Shropshire where busses only run Monday to Saturday and yes I broke my toe Sunday night :(.
(toe twisted 90 degrees)
 
matt rang a ambulance for me and even though I was screaming in agony they said there was no way they could send one out to us as it wasn't life threatening, I've always thought ambulances had to come to you if there was no form of getting to a hospital, I still to this day believe they thought I was just over exaggerating but as you can see from the pictures below and my x-rays I was not.
 
my boyfriend has to ring his parents to come home from a day out to take me to the hospital, which was a absolute nightmare, we went to Kidderminster A&E and when we arrived I heard the most ridiculous thing of out x-ray machines shut for the night now, there meant to be a 24 HOUR  A&E, the receptionist said to us to take a seat and a nurse would see to us in a few moments which turnt out to be a freaking hour which I understood as a little boy no older then about 6 came in with a frightening cut on his head and of course children go before any injury unless its life threatening which I completely get.
 
when I eventually saw the nurse she said I cant do anything as it needed a x-ray (what was the point in waiting) she referred me to Worcestershire hospital which took almost a hour to drive to by this time I was in so much pain I was almost passing out, when we arrived at the hospital they told us they had received no paper work but we had ours so it was fine we got seen to within about 30 mins, the nurse sent me for my xray and took a few details like all places do, when my x-rays came back it looked like the woman was almost crying, she looked at me and said "i have never seen a break in a toe like this before, you've broken the bone and shattered half of it , shattered the carterlidge and shattered the ligaments"
xryays

(x-ray when twisted at 90degrees)
 
she was in so much shock to what I had done to my foot she had to get a specialist bone doctor to examine it to see if I should be kept over night and operated on there or be sent home (I was living at home with mum and dad in London at this time) and operated on there, they decided setting it with a cast and sending me home was my best choice,
as much as my break hurt id had never felt any pain like the numbing needle I cried like a little girl.
 
 when I went to the hospital in London I got what looked to me like a junior doctor and he said to me I didn't need a operation and it would heal fine on its own, I had my cast and crutches for about 2 month, I then went in and got given a boot my god it was a space boot, I could of walked on the moon with it, the doctor said there was a 90% chance I would get authorities in my foot and it could re-break.
 
almost a year later after no problems my foot has began to get a huge shooting pain running through the break and repeatedly doing it for about 15 minutes every 2 hours, tomorrow the 15/4 I have a apt to see if I need surgery to reconstruct my toe, I am adamant my toe has not healed and there is still a huge amount of damage there, you can see my bone and I also feel pain when I touch it and what feels like pins and needles.
 
 
if you like me have done something like this to your bones anywhere on your body it is always worth going to have a check up and make sure that everything has healed properly.

SNOOZY SUNDAYS WEEKLEY CATCH UP

Snoozey Sundays
weekly catch up with demi.
 
something new for my blog today, I've decided I want to do a weekly over view on what I've been doing and why you know just a typical catch up into the life of me.
 
Monday 30th march
where do I begin with my Monday oh my, its been incredible busy in work, for those who didn't know I am a apprentice pharmacy dispenser, its incredibly hard to do this job on your own and usually I work with one other lady but this week she was a away for half term with her son. Monday was ok it was the usual dispensing and having a nice chilled day
 
Tuesday 31st march
 it was a nice chilled out day I have a good laugh with my boss on a daily basis.
 
Wednesday 1st April
it was so busy getting all the stock ordered sorted out I mean the boxes was ten times higher then I was so by the time I sorted that all out I was absolutely shattered.
 
Thursday 2nd April
the day before Easter Friday well this day was so busy for me I was contently angry because I was getting zero help within work and I was running about like a headless chicken I had to go to the doctors surgery to collect prescriptions three time with 2 hours apart from each other I was god damn annoyed I hate that when I'm alone I don't get any help I'm excepted to do everything alone and its tiring but I do enjoy the tasks I have thrown at me they make me happy and excited about learning new things.
 
Friday 3rd April
seeing as it was bank holiday Friday I decided I would go into the town, bridgnorth and get my self some bits and bobs I needed, I went in town on my own due to the boyfriend being incredibly sick all week which sucks, but I got my self some new makeup brushes, and other random bits I needed and of course some medication for the boyfriend, you know what boys are like they get a cold and its man flu lol
 
Saturday 4th April
 
ooooooo Saturday was a amazing day we didn't wake up till about 11 so the morning was lost but by the time we ate and showered and decided what we was doing for the rest of the day it was already 2pm and the bfs family had decided to come round so we spent a hour with them and the we went and saw fast and furious 7, which was absolutely incredible, we was both really weary of how the film would turn out seeing as Paul walker had died last year due to a driving accident. but it was amazing the effects and the technique gone into making his brother (who took over the role for Paul) look like Paul was just incredible you couldn't tell them apart, I honestly thought it was a twin or something.
at the end of the movie they do a little tribute to Paul to show how much he truly meant to everyone and it touched everyone's heart, the speech given at the end is absolutely heart breaking it brought tears to our eyes.
we then went out for a meal in the Bandon  pub which serves a incredibly mean steak its beautiful.
I had a 10oz steak with chips and peas the boyfriend had a mixed grill dear me it was huge he had to stop half way through to eat it.
 
 
 
Sunday 5th April
just a snozzy lazy Sunday full of eating Easter eggs and sleeping hahah.

Whats in my everyday work bag

whats in my everyday work bag
Hello my beautiful readers,


 First of all my bag,
I haven't done this post in a very long time so I've decided its time I done another as the seasons are changing which means my bag will be as well.
 its a black faux (fake) crocodile skin bag which I purchased from eBay for £9.00, when I saw this bag I just new it had to be mine as it looks very cute and very girly rocker.
but obviously buying things from eBay you've got to be weary and know what's going on when you buy as some people describe items as incredible quality but they can be extremely bad, but I've been really lucky and never had a item I've always brought beautiful quality items.
the bag doesn't haven't a large amount f pockets there's only three pockets but it makes up for the lose of pockets by having a large space within the bag.
also on my bag there is a badge this badge is a great deal to everyone who comes from Islington London, even though I'm not longer living in London I will show and fight for the justice that henry hicks will get for his death, he was taken away from everyone far to soon at just 18 years of age he was harassed  for 3 years by police, and sadly passed away a week before Christmas 2014 in a police chase that was not provoked and was in unmarked cars with no sirens. we will not stop fighting to get justice for him he was a lovely lad with a incredible future ahead and it was taken away far to soon, I never got the honour of knowing the person he became , but I did have the honour to know him as a young child and he was such a kind hearted and loving individual.

Lets begin.
when it comes to my bag I don't exactly have a typical amount of stuff I don't carry loads of makeup round with me, just a few items,
I always carry round a red note bag which fits perfectly in my bag, I carry this around with me for when inspiration hits and I need to jot down the notes and ideas I have for my blog.

Headphones, lighter, hand lotions, I always have my headphones in my bag you will never see me without my headphones, a lighter is for when I need it to light candles in work or at home, I carry two types of lotions around with me, one is for my eczema and dermatitis  and the other is for general use.
next item within my bag is my tablet, I adore carrying my tablet around with me as it has my books saved on it and also has the blogger app so if inspiration hits I can jot down ideas, currently I'm reading thirteen reasons why. my next book is paper towns.
my little blue bag, instead of carrying a makeup bag around with me I carry I carry this little blue Anna sui bag around with me the contents of this little blue bag are, ANNA SUI, SUI DREAMS PERFUME, A COMB A MAKEUP REVOLUTION MIRROR AND WHATEVER PIECES OF MAKEUP I NEED THROUGH OUT THE DAY.

my purse is a beautiful blue and cupcake pint its from lydc London and I got it last year for my birthday, I adore this purse as its not your usual type of purse you'd find in a girls handbag, it just a normal purse with a unique twist of cupcakes perfect for me, as in not really a colour sort of girl.
 enjoy nosing through my bag and my blog posts
