Speaker 1 (00:00):
So tomorrow is the beginning of the thaw right, Yeah,
although I guess a lot of thawing has already started
to because we've been above zero.
Speaker 2 (00:07):
Especially like Richmond. The weekend was miserable.
Speaker 1 (00:11):
The weekend was very chilly, very very chilly, and then
today will be cold. But starting tomorrow, then you're up
in the forties fifties. Yeah, like now we're really starting
to heat up. But I was reading, so go back
to when it first happened. And remember, remember when it
first happened, Richmond got far more ice earlier than d
C and Baltimore.
Speaker 2 (00:32):
Richmond got iced out quickly, and then.
Speaker 1 (00:35):
That line came up and then it kind of came
through DC and then just kind of kept moving up
north and everything became snow creek.
Speaker 2 (00:43):
Did you see the number?
Speaker 1 (00:45):
And I don't have it for DC, I don't have
it for Baltimore, but just for Virginia.
Speaker 3 (00:53):
The entire state. Yes, so this isn't a Richmond number.
This is for the commonwealth.
Speaker 1 (00:58):
Yes, twelve thousand Virginians got hurt falling on the ice.
Speaker 2 (01:05):
Oh my good.
Speaker 4 (01:06):
Wow.
Speaker 2 (01:08):
You can't get an appointment with a surgeon.
Speaker 4 (01:14):
Oh, because there's so many broken bones there backed up.
Speaker 1 (01:17):
One doctor said he performed more wrist surgeries in one
day last week than on any previous single day of
his career.
Speaker 2 (01:24):
Now, and that nuts, is that mainly what it is?
The wrist?
Speaker 1 (01:27):
No, no, no, no no, no wrists, arms, legs, Yeah,
like everything's going. Tailbones, although you wouldn't get surgery on
your tailbone, but you would break it.
Speaker 3 (01:39):
Wasn't there a collar? Last week? Who casually mentioned that
she had fallen, that she was a dog walker?
Speaker 2 (01:45):
Yeah, oh that's right, Yeah, that's right. She was a
dog walker.
Speaker 4 (01:48):
She I think she was was she wasn't she in
a boot too?
Speaker 3 (01:51):

Yes, yes, she was one of the twelve thousand, oh
Christ and just look she was Virginia.
Speaker 4 (02:04):

Speaker 1 (02:08):
Man, Kelly Butler fell in a parking lot of a
Baptist church in western Henriiko County, not far from her home.
She had to call her husband thirty times before he
answered the phone.
Speaker 3 (02:19):
Oh my god, Well he.
Speaker 2 (02:20):
Didn't know what was going on up the damn phone. Well,
he had to rush over there and get her.
Speaker 1 (02:24):
She couldn't get up because she broke one of the
bones in her legs.
Speaker 3 (02:29):
So she was relying on him to pick up his
phone and not calling nine one one, and she was
down and out.
Speaker 2 (02:36):
Okay, you're not calling nine one one because you broke
your ankle.
Speaker 3 (02:39):
Sounds like she can't move.
Speaker 4 (02:40):
Yeah, I mean, if you're stuck on pavement.
Speaker 1 (02:43):
There's somebody that can help you. Now in the middle
of the ice storm. I don't know if I would
have called Jackie, but yeah, hey, Christian, will you do
me a favor? Will you see if you can find
me somebody, not just from Virginia, I don't care where
they're from. Will you find me somebody who broke it, anything,
broke something in the in the ice. I didn't realize
it was so bad. Like a buddy of mine, a
(03:06):
buddy of mine.
Speaker 2 (03:06):
Ate it.
Speaker 6 (03:07):
Did you not go and like just take a little
stroll out and back to see what it was like?
When it's the six inches of ice on top of
the snow.
Speaker 2 (03:14):
Why would I go walking in it? I don't have
all like no.
Speaker 6 (03:17):
But I mean it's like I I had to get
the trash cans out last week.
Speaker 2 (03:21):
Yeah, they'll be there.
Speaker 1 (03:24):
Yeah, no, Well, we keep our trash cans in front
of the house. We feel it adds to curb appeal.
The Uh no, but I haven't gone into the backyard
the other I let the dogs out.
Speaker 2 (03:33):
Yeah, they go sliding in it. Not me. Oh I'm sorry.
Speaker 1 (03:37):
Eight six six too, Elliott eight six six two three
five five four six eight.
Speaker 2 (03:42):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (03:42):
See if you can find me somebody, either somebody who
broke something or somebody who has a family member that
broke something.
Speaker 2 (03:49):
A buddy who broke something, doesn't matter to me.
Speaker 1 (03:54):
A lot of wrists, a lot of broken bones, and
sledding accidents.
Speaker 3 (04:01):
That doesn't count to me. While sledding accidents different than
slipping on the ice, ummmm.
Speaker 2 (04:07):
I mean you're still breaking something.
Speaker 3 (04:09):
Yeah, but it's like you're doing something dangerous. I'm talking
about people who are just.
Speaker 2 (04:12):
Say you are not doing something dangerous. You're sledding.
Speaker 3 (04:15):
Sledding is more dangerous than maybe just trying to get
to your car.
Speaker 2 (04:18):
Okay, yes, I'll give you that.
Speaker 1 (04:19):
But still it's but a lot of the accidents and
sledding were because it's ice.
Speaker 2 (04:23):
Yeah, there was no snow to break youre falls exactly right.
Speaker 3 (04:26):
But I thought these were ten thousand plus people who
just slipped walking.
Speaker 2 (04:31):
Oh yeah, no, you had a bunch of those.
Speaker 1 (04:33):
One patient twisted a foot forty five degrees to the side.
This person cracked their hip. Oh dude, that's got a hurt.
That's got a hurt. And by the way, these are
all broken bones. I would love to know what the
concussion numbers are from people who slipped and bunked their heads.
They said, for some people, they're still waiting to get
(04:55):
appointments for surgeries, like if you have like smaller fractures, like,
who are still waiting?
Speaker 3 (05:02):
Look, it seems like it's been forever, but it has
only been two weeks.
Speaker 4 (05:06):
Since the snows the snow. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (05:10):
Doctor Alice Fariquez is a surgeon for Tuckahoe Orthopedics. His
schedule has been packed to the brim. He did five
broken wrists in an ambulatory surgery center, the most he's
ever done in a day. He's also treating fifty kids
with fractures.
Speaker 6 (05:29):

people who have like RSV or okay are still dealing
with the flu.
Speaker 2 (05:37):

are perfect and they're they're trained so well, but hasn't
walk in them been miserable?
Speaker 2 (12:29):

Calling about that. So my dog was in the backyard
and slipped on ice and dislocated his hip and so yeah,
that was like a two thousand dollars fix. And he's okay, now,
but his like back two legs have to be tied
together for the next four weeks.
Speaker 9 (13:22):
It's terrible.
Speaker 1 (13:22):
Wait, back two legs have to be tied together, like
you have to carry him to go out to the bathroom.

of hop on it. So he's like, fine, there there's
like it. There's like it's like taped in the middle.
I know it's kind of hard to explain, but he
can kind of hop on it, so he's like Okay.
They go on like really short walks.

Speaker 2 (14:05):
Hey, what's going on?
Speaker 8 (14:06):
Dud?
Speaker 13 (14:08):
I became a statistic of the Friday falls, and this
one would be another one you can chalk up on
why you don't like woodstoves. I was taking ashes out
from my woodstove. The wife came home, was coming up
the driveway and I was trying to be silly and
hopped over the snow bank onto the slippery driveway and
broke my ankle.
Speaker 2 (14:33):
Dude, that sucks. Hey, were you able to get an appointment?
Speaker 13 (14:38):
I went into express care and they determined it was
broken and I got two weeks off work. So really,

Speaker 3 (14:51):
Yes from Instagram. This is a warning to Diane who
mentioned trying to get bins out. My mom broke her
ankle on the ice taking out recycling.
Speaker 1 (15:00):
My recycling over the weekend. The because we didn't have
trash pick up last week.
Speaker 4 (15:05):
Yeah we missed a full week.
Speaker 2 (15:06):
Yeah, so ours is tonight.
Speaker 1 (15:08):
So I've got two weeks worth of like plastic in
there that's not weighted down.
Speaker 8 (15:12):
Well.
Speaker 1 (15:12):
At some point over the weekend, I guess that lid
flew open, but.
Speaker 2 (15:16):
I got about half of I got like half of
bins wide open. I don't know where that stuff is,
but it flew away.
Speaker 3 (15:25):
This is why they're trying to get everyone to switch
to the deeper recycling bins and not those flatter ones
that were the standard years ago.
Speaker 2 (15:35):
Tell the county to deliver. I ain't paying for it.
Speaker 7 (15:38):
Hi Ellie in the morning, Hey, good morning, stand from
King George.
Speaker 2 (15:42):
Hey, what's going on.
Speaker 7 (15:44):
I'm one of your concussion people.
Speaker 2 (15:46):
Oh god, oh dude, you fell and you hit your head.
Speaker 5 (15:50):
Yeah.
Speaker 7 (15:50):
I went to go help a neighbor out and I
drove up the street and all I remember was put
in the tahoe and park and then getting up off
the ground and I couldn't really I couldn't move, and
I couldn't really talk, and I felt by it. I
got knocked out, and I, you know, kind of came
to a strange feeling.
Speaker 2 (16:07):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (16:08):
No, And they say they they say that the you
really got to be careful.
Speaker 2 (16:12):
They don't want people.
Speaker 1 (16:14):
It's not that they don't want people going out by themselves,
but you fall and dink your head, you're done.
Speaker 2 (16:21):
Well, you're not done. But man, there's a lot.
Speaker 4 (16:22):
Yeah, but I mean you could freeze.
Speaker 1 (16:24):
It depends on how long you're out there. Sure, so
you so you're all you're all dinged up.
Speaker 2 (16:28):
In the head. Yeah.
Speaker 7 (16:30):
I had a headache for uh I think so. So
that happened on Tuesday after the storm. I think I
finally didn't have a headache Sunday afternoon, but I went
to the doctor Wednesday because when I went to work
Wednesday morning, the guy who was working with was like, uh,
you don't look right. So I went to the urgent
ar and you know, went through the whole protocol for concussion.
Speaker 2 (16:52):
So did they hey, thank you, sir?
Speaker 1 (16:54):
So did people like did emergency rooms run out of
splints because they don't cast you, they splint you. But
I guess if the break is bad enough, you gotta go.
But you can't get an appointment.
Speaker 3 (17:05):
How long were people sitting at the yard God.
Speaker 2 (17:07):
With their bones hanging out of their arms? Like at

the way down a hill about twenty feet or more,
and was there for about ten minutes or more because
she was scrolling on her phone and didn't realize God

Speaker 3 (28:52):
I'm doing the situation. People are really worried for her.
Speaker 2 (28:55):
I know, I talk to a doctor.
Speaker 3 (28:58):
A couple of people said, I never go to the doctor,
but this woman needs to.
Speaker 2 (29:02):
Go to the doctor.
Speaker 3 (29:07):
I'm gonna be thinking about her all day.
Speaker 2 (29:09):
I will tomorrow during follow ups.
Speaker 3 (29:11):
Oh, so you will be able to compartmentalize and set
her aside.
Speaker 2 (29:15):
Yeah, I forgot showed to do.
Speaker 3 (29:17):
But it's kind of the the back of my head,
of course, which is where she has to bump.
Speaker 2 (29:22):
A wound.
Speaker 3 (29:23):
She didn't say it was a wound.
Speaker 2 (29:24):
No, she said that she hit her. No, what she
said I did, Okay,
So tomorrow is the beginning of the thaw right, Yeah,
although I guess a lot of thawing has already started
to because we've been above zero.
Speaker 2 (00:07):
Especially like Richmond. The weekend was miserable.
Speaker 1 (00:11):
The weekend was very chilly, very very chilly, and then
today will be cold. But starting tomorrow, then you're up
in the forties fifties. Yeah, like now we're really starting
to heat up. But I was reading, so go back
to when it first happened. And remember, remember when it
first happened, Richmond got far more ice earlier than d
C and Baltimore.
Speaker 2 (00:32):
Richmond got iced out quickly, and then.
Speaker 1 (00:35):
That line came up and then it kind of came
through DC and then just kind of kept moving up
north and everything became snow creek.
Speaker 2 (00:43):
Did you see the number?
Speaker 1 (00:45):
And I don't have it for DC, I don't have
it for Baltimore, but just for Virginia.
Speaker 3 (00:53):
The entire state. Yes, so this isn't a Richmond number.
This is for the commonwealth.
Speaker 1 (00:58):
Yes, twelve thousand Virginians got hurt falling on the ice.
Speaker 2 (01:05):
Oh my good.
Speaker 4 (01:06):
Wow.
Speaker 2 (01:08):
You can't get an appointment with a surgeon.
Speaker 4 (01:14):
Oh, because there's so many broken bones there backed up.
Speaker 1 (01:17):
One doctor said he performed more wrist surgeries in one
day last week than on any previous single day of
his career.
Speaker 2 (01:24):
Now, and that nuts, is that mainly what it is?
The wrist?
Speaker 1 (01:27):
No, no, no, no no, no wrists, arms, legs, Yeah,
like everything's going. Tailbones, although you wouldn't get surgery on
your tailbone, but you would break it.
Speaker 3 (01:39):
Wasn't there a collar? Last week? Who casually mentioned that
she had fallen, that she was a dog walker?
Speaker 2 (01:45):
Yeah, oh that's right, Yeah, that's right. She was a
dog walker.
Speaker 4 (01:48):
She I think she was was she wasn't she in
a boot too?
Speaker 3 (01:51):
It was just like, yeah, how are you doing? Well?
Speaker 2 (01:52):
Not well?
Speaker 5 (01:53):
Yeah?
Speaker 4 (01:53):
Fell and that's my job.
Speaker 2 (01:54):
She Virginia the.
Speaker 1 (01:57):
Yes, yes, she was one of the twelve thousand, oh
Christ and just look she was Virginia.
Speaker 4 (02:04):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (02:08):
Man, Kelly Butler fell in a parking lot of a
Baptist church in western Henriiko County, not far from her home.
She had to call her husband thirty times before he
answered the phone.
Speaker 3 (02:19):
Oh my god, Well he.
Speaker 2 (02:20):
Didn't know what was going on up the damn phone. Well,
he had to rush over there and get her.
Speaker 1 (02:24):
She couldn't get up because she broke one of the
bones in her legs.
Speaker 3 (02:29):
So she was relying on him to pick up his
phone and not calling nine one one, and she was
down and out.
Speaker 2 (02:36):
Okay, you're not calling nine one one because you broke
your ankle.
Speaker 3 (02:39):
Sounds like she can't move.
Speaker 4 (02:40):
Yeah, I mean, if you're stuck on pavement.
Speaker 1 (02:43):
There's somebody that can help you. Now in the middle
of the ice storm. I don't know if I would
have called Jackie, but yeah, hey, Christian, will you do
me a favor? Will you see if you can find
me somebody, not just from Virginia, I don't care where
they're from. Will you find me somebody who broke it, anything,
broke something in the in the ice. I didn't realize
it was so bad. Like a buddy of mine, a
(03:06):
buddy of mine.
Speaker 2 (03:06):
Ate it.
Speaker 6 (03:07):
Did you not go and like just take a little
stroll out and back to see what it was like?
When it's the six inches of ice on top of
the snow.
Speaker 2 (03:14):
Why would I go walking in it? I don't have
all like no.
Speaker 6 (03:17):
But I mean it's like I I had to get
the trash cans out last week.
Speaker 2 (03:21):
Yeah, they'll be there.
Speaker 1 (03:24):
Yeah, no, Well, we keep our trash cans in front
of the house. We feel it adds to curb appeal.
The Uh no, but I haven't gone into the backyard
the other I let the dogs out.
Speaker 2 (03:33):
Yeah, they go sliding in it. Not me. Oh I'm sorry.
Speaker 1 (03:37):
Eight six six too, Elliott eight six six two three
five five four six eight.
Speaker 2 (03:42):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (03:42):
See if you can find me somebody, either somebody who
broke something or somebody who has a family member that
broke something.
Speaker 2 (03:49):
A buddy who broke something, doesn't matter to me.
Speaker 1 (03:54):
A lot of wrists, a lot of broken bones, and
sledding accidents.
Speaker 3 (04:01):
That doesn't count to me. While sledding accidents different than
slipping on the ice, ummmm.
Speaker 2 (04:07):
I mean you're still breaking something.
Speaker 3 (04:09):
Yeah, but it's like you're doing something dangerous. I'm talking
about people who are just.
Speaker 2 (04:12):
Say you are not doing something dangerous. You're sledding.
Speaker 3 (04:15):
Sledding is more dangerous than maybe just trying to get
to your car.
Speaker 2 (04:18):
Okay, yes, I'll give you that.
Speaker 1 (04:19):
But still it's but a lot of the accidents and
sledding were because it's ice.
Speaker 2 (04:23):
Yeah, there was no snow to break youre falls exactly right.
Speaker 3 (04:26):
But I thought these were ten thousand plus people who
just slipped walking.
Speaker 2 (04:31):
Oh yeah, no, you had a bunch of those.
Speaker 1 (04:33):
One patient twisted a foot forty five degrees to the side.
This person cracked their hip. Oh dude, that's got a hurt.
That's got a hurt. And by the way, these are
all broken bones. I would love to know what the
concussion numbers are from people who slipped and bunked their heads.
They said, for some people, they're still waiting to get
(04:55):
appointments for surgeries, like if you have like smaller fractures, like,
who are still waiting?
Speaker 3 (05:02):
Look, it seems like it's been forever, but it has
only been two weeks.
Speaker 4 (05:06):
Since the snows the snow. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (05:10):
Doctor Alice Fariquez is a surgeon for Tuckahoe Orthopedics. His
schedule has been packed to the brim. He did five
broken wrists in an ambulatory surgery center, the most he's
ever done in a day. He's also treating fifty kids
with fractures.

people who have like RSV or okay are still dealing
with the flu.

Speaker 1 (12:48):
The No, I do get concerned letting them out in
the backyard for exactly that reason, Like they're gonna go
running and they're gonna break their legs like the deer,
and then Baltimore County has got to.
Speaker 2 (12:56):
Come put them down. Line four. Hi, elliot of the morning,

and slipped on ice and dislocated his hip and so yeah,
that was like a two thousand dollars fix. And he's okay, now,
but his like back two legs have to be tied
together for the next four weeks.
Speaker 9 (13:22):
It's terrible.
Speaker 1 (13:22):
Wait, back two legs have to be tied together, like
you have to carry him to go out to the bathroom.
Speaker 2 (13:27):

Well, yeah, I had Well, yeah, he can like kind
of hop on it. So he's like, fine, there there's
like it. There's like it's like taped in the middle.
I know it's kind of hard to explain, but he
can kind of hop on it, so he's like Okay.
They go on like really short walks.

Speaker 2 (14:05):
Hey, what's going on?
Speaker 8 (14:06):
Dud?
Speaker 13 (14:08):
I became a statistic of the Friday falls, and this
one would be another one you can chalk up on
why you don't like woodstoves. I was taking ashes out
from my woodstove. The wife came home, was coming up
the driveway and I was trying to be silly and
hopped over the snow bank onto the slippery driveway and
broke my ankle.
Speaker 2 (14:33):
Dude, that sucks. Hey, were you able to get an appointment?
Speaker 13 (14:38):
I went into express care and they determined it was
broken and I got two weeks off work. So really,
I mean, in hindsight, you worth it?
Speaker 2 (14:46):
Yeah, almost worth it? Almost worth it? All right? Very good,
very good, Thank you, sir.
Speaker 3 (14:51):
Yes from Instagram. This is a warning to Diane who
mentioned trying to get bins out. My mom broke her
ankle on the ice taking out recycling.
Speaker 1 (15:00):
My recycling over the weekend. The because we didn't have
trash pick up last week.
Speaker 4 (15:05):
Yeah we missed a full week.
Speaker 2 (15:06):
Yeah, so ours is tonight.
Speaker 1 (15:08):
So I've got two weeks worth of like plastic in
there that's not weighted down.
Speaker 8 (15:12):
Well.
Speaker 1 (15:12):
At some point over the weekend, I guess that lid
flew open, but.
Speaker 2 (15:16):
I got about half of I got like half of
bins wide open. I don't know where that stuff is,
but it flew away.
Speaker 3 (15:25):
This is why they're trying to get everyone to switch
to the deeper recycling bins and not those flatter ones
that were the standard years ago.
Speaker 2 (15:35):
Tell the county to deliver. I ain't paying for it.
Speaker 7 (15:38):
Hi Ellie in the morning, Hey, good morning, stand from
King George.
Speaker 2 (15:42):
Hey, what's going on.

Speaker 2 (15:46):
Oh god, oh dude, you fell and you hit your head.
Speaker 5 (15:50):
Yeah.
Speaker 7 (15:50):
I went to go help a neighbor out and I
drove up the street and all I remember was put
in the tahoe and park and then getting up off
the ground and I couldn't really I couldn't move, and
I couldn't really talk, and I felt by it. I
got knocked out, and I, you know, kind of came
to a strange feeling.
Speaker 2 (16:07):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (16:08):
No, And they say they they say that the you
really got to be careful.
Speaker 2 (16:12):
They don't want people.
Speaker 1 (16:14):
It's not that they don't want people going out by themselves,
but you fall and dink your head, you're done.
Speaker 2 (16:21):
Well, you're not done. But man, there's a lot.
Speaker 4 (16:22):
Yeah, but I mean you could freeze.
Speaker 1 (16:24):
It depends on how long you're out there. Sure, so
you so you're all you're all dinged up.
Speaker 2 (16:28):
In the head. Yeah.
Speaker 7 (16:30):
I had a headache for uh I think so. So
that happened on Tuesday after the storm. I think I
finally didn't have a headache Sunday afternoon, but I went
to the doctor Wednesday because when I went to work
Wednesday morning, the guy who was working with was like, uh,
you don't look right. So I went to the urgent
ar and you know, went through the whole protocol for concussion.
Speaker 2 (16:52):
So did they hey, thank you, sir?
Speaker 1 (16:54):
So did people like did emergency rooms run out of
splints because they don't cast you, they splint you. But
I guess if the break is bad enough, you gotta go.
But you can't get an appointment.
