Thank you all so much for your best wishes, it cheered mum up to know kind people were wishing her well. She's still in a lot of pain, a new cast on today and we are getting our heads round how we'll manage back at home for 8 weeks without her putting any weight on her leg - she can do lots of knitting for the grand kids! My parents were looking forward to a 6 week trip of a life time to visit family out in Australia in early March so this is a disappointing set back. I hope the police can track down the driver. Thankfully there were some great people who helped mum after the accident and kept her safe until the emergency services arrived - very grateful to them.

Dear All, The lady involved in the accident was my dear mother. Many thanks for your sincere concern, she's currently preparing for a Xmas at King's College hospital with a badly broken leg and damaged shoulder. We're facing a long recovery of 2 months in a cast with crutches. It was a hit and run which as a family we're struggling to understand how anyone could be so heartless. I would like to take this opportunity to appeal to any witnesses as from what we understand the police investigation hasn't made great progress so far. We appreciate it could have been a lot worse but certainly agree with your views that something needs to be done to address this danger. As you can imagine my mother is very upset about missing out on family fun this year. Kind regards
