Dear Sir/Madam
I am writing to you concerning the disgusting state of the footpaths around our area, and the complete lack of care and repair that your department has not carried out. has failed to maintain?
On Monday 29th October at 5.45pm I was collecting my Avon books from several customers in Mount Road, Wickford (luckily my partner had decided to come with me for a walk) and just as I was approaching no. 43A I inadvertently stepped into the hole (in the darkness as that part of the road is badly lit) which caused me to trip and my right foot twisted badly, at the time I felt something 'tear' inside my foot. I did try to 'collect' from another couple of houses, but the pain was excrutiating. My partner ran home and got his car and as my foot was swelling very quickly it was decided that I should go straight to Accident and Emergency at Basildon Hospital.
After being sat in A & E for several hours and having X-rays etc the doctors informed me that I have broken my 5th Metartarsal in my Right Foot, I was then put into plaster and told to keep my foot up completely and put no weight on it at all which I am finding increasingly impossible. I am now hobbling about on crutches and am in a great deal of pain, and am not able to do normal everyday things, such as shower, do housework, go to work, drive, go shopping etc etc. In fact I am now completely housebound thank you. i would remove
The doctor has also shown me on the x-ray that the bone is displaced and when I go back to the fracture clinic on Friday 2nd November 2007 @ 2.35 pm I will have to go for more x-rays and will then be informed if I will have to undergo an operation to repair the bone which will take months to repair or just (hopefully) another plaster which will have to be on for at least 6 weeks.
My partner has taken several photo's of the area and the offending hole in the pavement, and also taken pictures of my leg in plaster should you require copies of these please do ask for them.
I am writing to you to ask that you make sure that you repair the offending hole in the pavement outside 43A Mount Road, and whilst you are at it, could you please also repair the rest of the pavements in that road, as well as the ones in Adam Way, Mount Close and Mount Way as I am sure that due to your negligence there will be more accidents.
Please take notice that I intend to claim full compensation from yourselves for your complete negligence of keeping up repairs on the pavements in our area which has caused me to have loss of mobility, pain & suffering caused by yourselves, and for time and expenses back and forth to the hospital for treatment etc etc
Yours
