The Day After The Night Before
Guys what can I say, the last 20 hours have been rough. But I'm now ready to talk about it.
How Did It Happen
As some of you know I have a weak right shoulder, whilst tending last night I put my right arm at the back of box and when I twisted, I got a shooting pain and lost all balance. When my elbow landed on the top of her right side I heard the snap. This damn shoulder has been an ass for years, it even forced me to sell my bike as I could no longer hold on when I opened the throttle but this is the first time I lost all strength in it like this.
What Happened Then
I lost the plot, I cried in anger at myself, the plant came very close to being ripped up and shredded for the compost bin. I sat and ripped a few hoots before I went back. I removed all ties and propped her up while I struggled to get it taped up. I had to dig away the soil around her main stem to give me room to work and in doing so I broke some roots but I managed to get her taped up nice and tight. I didn't use anything else other than tape.
What happens now
Now we wait, it took nearly 20 hours before I opened to door to see what she looked like. I was pleasantly suprised if I'm honest, she is up and looking for light, no sign of a wilt or a droop. I will not touch her now, other than a good watering that she will get tomorrow evening, for at least 5 days. I'm hoping to get some ties back on her before I go away next Thursday morning.
Thankyou
In the meantime, I need to thank you all for your input and support. Your are all amazing. She
will be ok
