As i may have mentioned before JT works at our church. There are two sites he works from and last tuesday he decided to get some petrol before travelling to the 2nd site. He was just getting ready to pull out onto one of the busy roads in Sheffield and another car went into the back of him. Our car didnt have the handbrake on so there was no major damage to the car apart from a biggish scratch to the back of it.
As soon as JT rang me i was able to leave work and as soon as i got home we had to leave again so that i could take him to the hospital as he was in pain with his stomach and shoulder, basically in pain from where the seatbelt was. Our nearest hospital walk in centre was unable to help as it was abdominal and it was a nurse only ward, so i had to drive him to the other hospital on the other side of the city. It took us ages to get a parking space. We didnt have to wait too long in the hospital though and he was told that he just had some bad bruising and to pop back if it got any worse.
By friday he was still in pain so he booked in to see the doctor. The doctor was concerned he may have done something to his spein(spell?) so i left work again so i could go back to the hospital with him. This time our friend Pete took us incase JT had to stay in and then i wouldnt be able to get the car back as i havnt passed my test yet. Pete was a star and even picked us back up again later in the afternoon. The hospital gave JT loads of test and they have confirmed that his ribs etc are just bruised and there is nothing more serious.
He is still off work at mo as he is still in pain but is hoping to get back to work at some point this week. The problem is, is that his job can be quiet manual and he cant lift much at the moment without being in pain.
Im just so relieved that he is ok and that nothing more serious happened to him.
