Well, well, well.....thanks all for all the good well wishes, texts, calls and messages over the past 2 days, especially from so many on here. We're home from the hospital and sorry not been able to reply to everyone personally but a quick update.
Joe did indeed break his ankle playing football on Tuesday night. It's been quite traumatic, especially for Joe, but am pleased to say we are now back home and thanks to the wonder staff at the NHS yesterday (all gooners) he is pain free and has a Red plaster cast for Arsenal! :-))We're not sure what this will yet mean for his fotball, but we're back in 3 weeks to see how he's healing as only a Sowter can do he's made a rare break, but defo he'll be out for at least 6-8 weeks min.
He'd just been made captain, and Whetstone Wanderers only lost their first game this Sunday just passed - so he's feeling more than gutted. We have decided to go for an Eduardo style recovery - coz we're triple hard (well he is, I've been a right mess) and he's loving the crutches, although Bambi on ice at times, and it's a slow process getting anywhere. He's more than got the hang of ordering me about after him. He'll be back at school on Monday, however!
I know some of you were going to come and watch him play so fingers crossed in New Year he'll be back!
I'll try and reply personally in the next couple of days but things a bit manic at the moment. Thanks again everyone for all your best wishes.
