Them’s the breaks…..

Plenty of rest was required for the ankles, although Kendall managed to keep smiling even in hospital.

Plenty of rest was required for the ankles, although Kendall managed to keep smiling even in hospital.

Regional Office Manager at Mildura Regional Clinical School, Kendall Livingstone, really jumped in the year with a bang, albeit with an unpleasant consequence – one broken ankle and the other badly sprained.

A trip to Mildura Base Hospital tested the preparedness of the local health services.

Kendall was not partying hard to celebrate the New Year, but rather visiting a neighbour and took a tumble down their balcony stairs.

The injury fortunately did not require surgery, although a plate or two had been suggested early in the piece.

After a week of rest in which the family stepped up on the home front and Kendall soldiered on doing what she could via iPad / email, she is back to hobbling around the office for a few hours each day.
