[tri-med] Tess has a fracture

Tess sustained a fractured leg this morning during a physiotherapy 
session. Julie and the physio were putting her in her stander, Julie 
had the top half and the physio was trying to secure the supports 
around her knees, when she (the physio) pushed her leg and it 
fractured close to the ankle. Tess went to hospital and they have put 
a temporary cast on it, and given her morphine for pain relief. As 
usual our dear little girl did NOT cry, but just raised both arms up 
and gasped. She is back home at Mum's place, but has to go back on 
Thursday to Westmead Children's hospital to have it properly seen to, 
a proper cast and re setting. Also they will try to get some dental 
work done, while she is under anaesthetic.  Ian gets her on Thursday 
for the first week of school hols.  What a start to the school 
holidays! Poor Tessie!

I will ask you to keep her in your thoughts and/or prayers for no 
more pain, and a quick healing.
