OMG!! On Thursday night Nivek fell off a ledge under our balcony at home and landed on his head and shoulders. Mum thought it wasn't that bad so she picked him up and he started rolling his eyes and looked like he was gonna spew. So Kelly and Aunty Ray Ray helped him upstairs and Mum called an ambulance.
Those fence things in the pic also landed on him.......ouch!! Anyways the ambulance came and stabalised him and asked heaps of questions. Mum rang Dad at work and he came home and went with Veek to the hospital. When he got to the emergency ward they gave him xrays and scans and found out that he had a fractured skull.
He had to wear a neck brace and lay on this back support thingy. The black things next to his head are sand bags so he didn't move his head and neck. After 9 hours in emergency ward he was moved to the childrens ward at the Mater hospital.
That was a really long night with the nurses and doctors poking and prodding Veek while he slept. The next morning we woke up in hospital and Koro Tim was there to visit. Veek was sooo excited because we haven't seen him for ages. He stayed for a few hours and Mum was stoked because she could finally have a smoke without Veek moaning that he was lonely.
After he went home Dad,Lennox and Uncle Bonny came to visit and Mum got to go home and have a break. Later that day Koro Craig, Aunty Pania, Vicky, Uncle Tom, Aunty Te Rina and Harmony came to visit. Veek took them to the play area to show them around a bit....
Then everyone went home and it was back to Mum and Veek getting bored in the little hospital room. The nurses took a fancy to Veek and let him stay up later then the other kids and watch the footy. Yay!! Finally at 9 pm on saturday Veek was discharged from hospital. He can do most normal things now but he's not allowed to play footy for at least 6 weeks and can't have punch ups with Lennox either. After half an hour at home this is already proving to be a challenge lol. Mum has to go to school with Veek on tuesday and let the teacher know what he can and can't do. Should be an interesting few weeks. He is guttered that he can't play footy. But we will still attend the games and let you all know how the teams going.
In other news it's Aunty Polly's birthday. She's the big 30 today!!! And she's going to Jack Johnson:(:( Mum is sooo jealous. Anyways happy birthday Aunty we all love you long time and hope you have the bestest birthday ever.
Well that's all from our house for now. Perhaps tomorrow we'll chuck on some pics of the boys stuffing their faces with chocolate. Happy easter everyone. Be safe and enjoy the long weekend..... nearly forgot about Nana Diane. Hope you enjoyed the memorial Nan we love you long time too.
