Stitched up


Stitched up, originally uploaded by Phil Haygarth.

Poor Helen had a nasty accident yesterday and a narrow escape. We were having a bank holiday walk on the moor with Charlie and Juliette and family above Belstone - a lovely morning - and as we descended to the car the children ran ahead and swang on the gate , with Helen head planing over it and landing on her head on granite. After a panic and a lot of bood we ended up on Exeter A+E and Helen was admitted and had a minor operation late last night by the plastic surgeons to put her 4 cm deep wound back together. She is home and all safe today, but it is a 24 hours we would rather forget...bless her she was sooo brave. Pictures of the walk and the homecoming are here.
