Mangled leg

No photos just yet.

Just waiting around the hospital for an operation on a guy who rode his motorbike into a truck.

Worse looking leg I’ve EVER seen.

He has an open dislocation of his knee: meaning his femur and tibia have come apart from each other (dislocated) and the femur was poking out looking at me through a 20cm wound over his knee. This has huge implications, especially with blood supply to the rest of his lower leg.

He also had a very mangled looking foot and ankle which also had bones sticking out. My end up with an amputation…

So imagine Norm’s finger dislocation compared to this knee dislocation.

Alan, I’ll need a lot of ‘power’ from you to put the knee back into place…
