Franny needs our well wishes! - A Gardeners Forum [Archive]

Franny fell at her WalMart - slipped in something that was spilled on the floor - and broke her arm!!!

Would everyone please send her wishes for a speedy recovery?

Most definately. Franny you are in my prayers that the break heals quickly and does not give you much pain or itching from the cast.

Oh, gee! Is it going to heal okay? I hope you feel okay.

Oh poor crazy Frannie

Are you in a lot of pain?? Did you get any good drugs?

Prayers for you girlfriend

I wanted to share this here so Francine would not have to retype.

keith turned aroud upon hearing that big thump and saw me on the floor,all my left side was full of soapy white stuff,coat and all,all black.he was livi,reason or another he don t like when i ve got a booboo.they asked me if i wanted to report it,the only thing i wanted was to get out and home to an ice pack,later that day we finally reported it.at night i realise my arm didn tgo even to half to my face so i told meself it wasn t only muscle,twas still very much swollen so we went for some xr. where they tokd me it was broken,tomorrow i may have little surgery to look at the ligament and th ey l put it in a cast,meanwhile it s in a slign(that s why you are reading me so slowly,cuz one hand does right slowly

).i slept a good part of the day as i m sedated.

but i tell myself,people s got worse injuries,so of course it s no fun but i won t die from it...oh ya forgot to tell you after xr. yest. we went to my parent,i triped and fell in the snow on top of it all.

thanks.

Franny - are you pulling a Cindy?!?
Tripping in the snow after all that???

Please take good care of yourself!

Franny, I don't know you yet, but I wish you the best just the same!

That is the same thing I was thinking!

Cindy Sue

I vote sue them!
Now my boyfriend is trying to plot out a way where I can fall and sue.....oh dear...what did I say???

I'm so sorry Franny! Take care. Hoping and praying for a speedy recovery!!

Christina

Crzy Frannie..I am so sorry about your arm and I do hope it will mend without surgery! Bless your heart...we will be saying some prayers for you...

~V~

I hope you're feeling better soon, Franny, and your arm mends well.

I also think that sounds like a lawsuit waiting to happen. (And I'm not big on people sueing over everything, but for a spill that big, and especially since they knew about it because they had the tiny sign, that's blatant negligence.)

Franny, Prayers for healing go out to you , and get somewhere and sit down!! We don't want to hear of any more ow-wies ,, Stay out of the snow as much as possible Walmart's in TROUBLE now! And I thought WE had a sueing thing going on Here

Franny I am so sorry you fell and got hurt. Always when you fall tell them you need a Doctor call my lawyer he knows a good one. Hope they can put Crazy Franny on the owners slip soon. Prayers going out for you.
Jimmy

Franny,
So sorry this happened. I hope you start feeling better soon. Heal fast. Hugs and prayers.
Nancy

Oh Franny, how sad. Here's hoping you a speedy recovery and one with no pain. Take it easy, that arm has to mend right so it can still plant in the spring.

Yes, tamara, and that arms gotta heal right so she can keep posting here!!!!!

oh franny...

i hope it's better quickly... and make sure they pay ALL your bills!

{{{Franny}}} sorry you are hurting now. Hopefully it'll heal quickly for you.

Franny, is there going to be a Fran-Mart in the near future? I hope you are doing better now....

Dianna

It sounds like Wal-Mart (aka Mall Wart) was SO negligent. Yes, sue...though they should compensate without going through all that. So sorry to hear about that, it must have hurt like ****! Hope you feel better soon, Fran.

Definitely sue. And heal quickly and well without complications. My prayers will be with you. I'm so glad your other half was with you and could take care of you.

Franny, prayers are going up from Iraq. It's not fun being in a cast and this close to Christmas. You'll have to play it up a bit

and let the rest of the family do the big dinner and all. You take it easy and get that arm better.

Hopefully, you have let Wal-Mart know already about how hurt your arm was. The longer you wait the easier their deniability.

Jon

OH NO Franny! Just in time to get out of cooking for Christmas! (Sorry... that was the second thing I thought of!

I think I'll head for WalMart!)
Well, all is not lost... maybe they'll give you a sling too, & it can double as a bib! [Linked Image]

(& maybe you'll get help cooking.)

Seriously, I know this type of thing is pretty uncomfortable, to say the least, & I wish you speedy recovery.

Has anyone said which arm is broken? If so, I didn't see it. (& is Franny right or left-handed?)

Crazy Frannie...I hope you will let us know if you are going to have to have surgery or not...I am praying NOT...and hopefully it will heal on it's own...still sending happy thoughts and prayers your way...

Hey guys. I have gotten a couple of PM's from Franny. Did not realize she had not checked in here so wanted to update. Her break is clean and she has not mentioned surgery. She has broken this arm 3 times in the same place, I believe, from what she said. Also, her boss did not want to find alternate work for her to do that she could do with a broken arm, so she is off for the next 6 weeks.

so she is off for the next 6 weeks.

Thank goodness for that!

I don't think she is too happy about it. She thinks she is going to go NUTZ! That and half-pay. UGH!

Quote

That and half-pay. UGH!

If I were her Wal-Mart would be paying me to stay home...
...for a long time!

Agreed - WalMart should make up for her lost wages, as well as her medical bills, and suffering.

Remember when the idiot at the deli counter slammed the glass door down on my head last year at the supermarket? Their insurance company was going to reimburse lost wages, but unfortunately since I do not work outside the home, there weren't any. Hopefully, WalMart in Canada will show some integrity!

"edit" - now I gotcha, CindySueHappy!!!

Big lawsuit, big settlement!!!
