The FastDay Forum

So today's fasting was going well until I got a phone call to say my son has a suspected fracture from playing his football match! They are in London and on their way home which will take about an hour. Then we will have to swap over- hubby needs a few hours kip before a night shift and I'm off to A&E with the boy! Hubby will order pizza when he has slept for the other 2 children and I'm dreading coming home to find leftover pizza! I have packed a banana in my bag and a bottle of water. Lets hope it's not a 4 hour wait like last time!!!

Good luck jem, hope it isn't serious (or a long wait!). If you get through the day fasting great,, but don't kick yourself too much if not.

Oh no! I hope it's a simple fracture and he makes a quick recovery!

I hope your son is OK

Thanks guys. Only 2 hours waiting, 1 broken meterasol in his left foot and a moon boot for the next 4 weeks! Luckily he plays for a professional club so they will look after him. Ate my banana in the X-ray department but as expected was greatest with pizza on return. Had 1 slice only. Will fast again on Saturday to make up for today!

Hi Jem13bha,

I saw your earlier post but decided I'd wait til you had news before I posted. Good news all round then, especially about the pizza (Joke, honest!) I bet your stress levels are now sky high but I'm sure you will be fine, Hope the young Beckham is fine, long term as well,

Pleased he'll be looked after. All the 'top' footballers seem to suffer at some time.

Glad your lad's not too badly hurt. Well done with just one slice of pizza.

You did well, 1 slice of pizza didn't completely ruin you fast day and think of all the extra calories you burned thanks to the adrenaline! Glad your son is ok :0)

Oh my! Best wishes to you and your boy. Please don's add more stress to an already stressful situation. If you make it, OK. If you don't, OK again!
