HUNGRY GERALD

Don’t get worried, family, friends and hungrygerald.com followers. Had successful, efficient surgery. Painful post-surgery–but making good healing progress. Here are the details: HG/BSK’S  bathroom at Prince Edward Island oceanfront home.  Midday –August 19. HG slipped leaving the commode and crashed into the sink. KAZOOM!! Fractured hip. Bruised and bloody head needing some sutures.  Ambulance called and it came promptly–paramedics managed, with skills, to maneuver HG on a stretcher. HG was whisked off to Queen Elizabeth Hospital In Charlottetown. Surgery involved insertIng a steel rod on the hip bone and a steel pin on the femur to hold it all together.. HG was a few days at  Queen Elizabeth and then transferred  to Montague Hospital in the Town of Montague (Much closer to HG/BSK home). Everyone at both hospitals was welcoming, comforting , professional. However I prefer Montague. Truly Canadian.(Will keep you informed of progress and therapy).
