Title: Paul Hicks fall
Post by: Remington on July 21, 2014, 09:26:44 AM: Hello everyone. Not sure if this has been mentioned anywhere but according to Paul Hick's Twitter he had a fall on Saturday earlier which seems to have resulted in a hand fracture. A doctor is having a look today.

Let's all wish him a speedy recovery!

Gracias.

Post by: Paul Hicks on July 21, 2014, 11:04:10 AM: Thanks guys! I should be ok, pen grip is ok which was the main thing. Just waiting in surgical assessment to find out what the next step will be. Thank you once again for your thoughts but as we know Michael Perry has come back from a far worse injury so I have nothing to moan about:)

Just gutted I can't sculpt as I have so many ideas!

Yeah ... as long as you can grip your ... pen, that's the main thing.

Post by: Paul Hicks on July 21, 2014, 08:05:32 PM: On the mend thanks. I need two metal plates in my hand which we hope will be done this week. Luckily rehab for hand fractures is plenty of movement so I should be back working very soon indeed.

Post by: Jonas on July 30, 2014, 01:13:07 PM: Sorry to hear about this. I wish the best for s speedy recovery.

It would be a real shame to not see Paul Hicks sculpt in the future.

Title: Re: Paul Hicks fall
Post by: Paul Hicks on July 30, 2014, 04:48:06 PM: To axabrax. Hands are insured! Wouldn't play Rugby without it:). Had 9 screws and a plate put in on Thursday out of the cast and in a splint on Monday. Very limited movement at the moment but after the metal work I'm not surprised. At the latest it will be a course of months till I'm back sculpting at full steam. I have sculpted 6 pairs of boots at least:)
