Black eye after assault

Black eye after assault,
originally uploaded by armb.

I was assaulted by a couple of teenagers for no apparent reason this lunchtime and spent the afternoon with the police and then at Addenbrooks A&E.
It's just bruising, and I can still see out of it (just about), but it is looking rather ugly. (The localized swelling near cuts has actually gone down quite a lot from immediately afterwards, but the overall puffyness has come up.)

Oh, bah! That sucks! Rotten thing to happen.

It will mend. Honest, and the swelling and discolouration will subside. C got a black eye at school last year. Very colourful.

I hope you're not too badly shaken. That's a hoorid thing to deal with.
