Just to let you know where I am...
Early Wednesday morning I jumped out of bed with a bad leg cramp, my leg gave way and I ended up in a "Screaming heap" on the floor.
Long story short.... I have a compact fracture of the "L2" = "Broken back". No surgery is required but I am bed ridden (in hopsital) and in terrible pain. I should be allowed out of bed and to start moving in a few days, but will probably be in hospital for another week!!
I have been told by the doctor it will be 4 weeks until I am back to normal..... whatever "normal" is !!
I miss you all terribly and I shal look forward to seeing what you have all been up to and and can't wait to get back to work on the "Petite Maison".
David has relayed some e-mails onto me from: Mercedes; Christel and Rosanne and of course it is David and Kendall who are doing this post. XX

My goodness, Linda...who would have thought something like this could so easily happen. Rest and speedy recovery to you!

Oh, my, Linda. I pray for a very speedy recovery for you. Don't overdo when you are allowed to go home. Allow your back to rest and heal.
Thinking of you.
Hugs,
Marsha
Oh Linda...that's bloody awful for you! There's nothing to compare with the pain you get with bsck injuries, especially when the sciatic nerve in your leg's involved. I know only too well what you're going through....I've been there & after 6 months of being bedridden & then hobbling slowly with a stick, my spine fused itself. Take care, DO as you're told & lie flat as much as possible. Mini hugs, Linda
hi Linda,
I've just discovered your fabulous blog thru a link somwhere. I'm so sorry to hear about your health problem and wish you a very speedy recovery,so that, a little at a time, you'll be able to go on with this masterpiece of yours.
take good care of yourself and
get well soon
Rita
I am so very sorry you are having trouble. Please take care of yourself and rest as much as possible, I'll pray for a speedy recovery!!
Ouch, Linda! That sounds terrible! I hope that you recover soon. We will miss you! Just do everything that the doctors tell you to do and hurry back to blogland.
Dear Linda, it's incredible how it has happened. Do not hurry, take care and rest a lot. I send you all my thoughts and hugs. I'm really looking forward to your next upright post.Love Rosanna
So sorry to hear of your injury. That is such a horrid accident. I am so glad the mending does not require any extreme measures such as surgery.
I guess it is now our duty to keep you very amused during your recovery.
Linda,I hope that you recover soon.Take care
I send you a lot of hugs and good vibrations for you.
I miss you to much.

Damn Linda, so very sorry to hear of your accident. Spinal injuries are almost the scariest and most painful injury you can sustain. You be good and do exactly what the doctors say. Best wishes and vibes going your way from the wife of someone with a spinal cord injury.
Oh Linda, my goodness, I am shocked! I am so, so sorry about your injury! Please take care of yourself. You must take it slow. I am sending you my thoughts and prayers.
Linda, take it slow and easy. These injuries can be very painful, as you found out.
Petit Maison and all your admirers will be there when you get home.
Sophia
That's incredibly bad luck Linda, take care and REST UP! As Sophia rightly points out, Petit Maison and all of us will be here when you are recovered enough to feel like dabbling in your mini world again. Like most mum's you are probably used to being the care giver, not on the receiving end, but this is definately the time to lie back and let the TLC flow your way. All the best, Norma
Thats terrible news, Linda. Wishing you a speedy recovery and hope the pain eases quickly. Will miss your posts, but will look forward to hearing that you are recovering well and back blogging.
Sending lots of warm wishes, Julia & Hywel
Oh my goodness Linda, so sorry to hear this. Will keep you in my thoughts!
So so sorry to hear your bad news, please get better soon! Best regards Lyndsey
Oh dear, I'm so sorry to hear about your injury. This certainly will make me think twice about jumping out of bed suddenly! How difficult it must be for you to be bedridden and away from home. I certainly hope you feel better very soon!

Wishing you a speedy recovery X.
Sorry Linda, the deleted comment was mine! I found I couldn't edit an error - that'll teach me to preview first.
Hope you start to feel better soon X
Hello Linda, I hope my message will reach you ..
This summer my husband fell off a ladder and fractured, but it would be better to say pulped the L2 ... was terrible for us because we were afraid that he is paralyzed! was in hospital for a month, it worked, now has a prosthesis in the spine, has suffered much the stillness, but if you can console is now well ..
is bringing a tutor to keep a straight back, but soon will be back to work!
courage, a little patience and you will come back as well and more than before!
I embrace you, Caterina
Oh Linda, it sounds awful, and I hope they can offer you some pain relief. How frustrating to have enforced bedrest just from getting out of bed with leg cramp! I do hope you get better soon. Best wishes
DollMum
Hi Linda, I'm so sorry to hear about your fall! Take good care of yourself, a broken back is quite an injury, and that from a simple fall! My husband had a similar injury 5 years ago, but we had a major car accident for causing that. So I know about that pain and I hope you soon will feel better, but take your time, you'll need it!
Good luck,
Marit
Linda, What a terrible way to start the day! I hope that you have a very speedy recovery. I love your blog and will look forward to the day when you are home and posting!!......Patty
Wishing you a very speedy recovery Linda. So sorry to hear of your injury. Sending you big gentle hugs..xxx
Dear Linda, I was shocked to learn that you are in hospital! Take heart! I have witnessed such pain when two of my friends had to go to hospital with similar back problems. They are doing well now! your friends will be waiting anxiously for your return. My very best to you. TerryX
I was so sorry to read about what happened to you. I hope it won't be too long before you are back to your usual self. You must be looking forward to getting home.
As we say in French I wish you "bon courage".
With all my best wishes for a quick recovery.
Geneviève
Glad to know your okay. Take care of the leg.
I always have leg cramps especially when the weather is so cold. I hope your leg is fine now.
Linda,
I'm a big fan of your blog. Your dollhouse is such a beauty. I think I've looked at every photo you've posted here at least three times!
I hope that this down time will be a time to rest and recover, and that you will be healed and refreshed in body and spirit.
mini hugs,
Kate in California
Hi Linda, I am sorry to hear of your misfortune.. I went to an Oesteopath in Jan this year and the next day had no feeling in my left leg as she had ruptured my disc and the spinal fluid leaked.. I ended up having spinal surgery in June and was in terrible pain. I was home for 3 months and am just starting to return to normal. The reason I am telling you this is so you do everything the specialists tell you to do and look after yourself...we look forward to the continuation of the Petite Maison attic!! I will say a little prayer for you... Lorella
Sorry to hear that Linda, we wish you all the best, take care!
Linda:
I hope you're feeling better and wish you a very very fast recovery!
Thank you for letting us know, we miss you too!
Maia
Missing you!! Please come home soon and I hope you are feeling better:)

Esperamos tus trabajos pronto pero eso cuando ya estes bien, de momento a descansar.
Un saludo.

I had not seen this post before I write you, last Wednesday, dear Linda
I hope you are recovering without too much suffering ...:(
I also hope that you have received your mini-book (but now I understand better why I did not hear from you ...)
I am sad for you, but I hope you will soon return to France, and Paris to see you with pleasure (perhaps for the SIMP, it will be June 20, 2010)
I wish you the best and good morale especially ...
and thanks to David who relays ;)
I kiss you
Léa

Missing you like crazy Linda. I hope you are getting better everyday. Don't worry no one has forgotten you.

Oooooo, Linda, I'm so sorry. I've jumped out of bed with leg cramps so many times ~ hurting your back is adding insult to injury. I hope you will recover quickly and that you will soon be pain free.
Probably your mind will be working overtime during your "down-time" thinking of more wonderful things for your gorgeous "Petite Maison".
Bon courage.
