Agathe’s foot (shipwreck 5)
Min and Agathe have had a tremendous amount of fun in the last few days – but this morning Agathe’s foot fell off! She is sure it has nothing to do with getting her feet wet and hopping about in various locations, such as shipwrecks and sea caves.
The offending foot has been re-glued, and taped under tension. Agathe ordered to stay off it for at least 24 hours…Min decided to treat the invalid with cookies and the usually forbidden can of pop!

And they found a new use for the broadsword.

Goodness gracious! Agathe and Min are quite the adventurous pair! Rachel Fields could not have come up with a better sequel!!!! Thank you for the wonderful moments!!!!
We have so much fun with our girls, and they always come out smiling…Except for our little worrier, Mary Ann.
Get well soon, Agathe! Glad it wasn’t a full-out break!! It is great to see Hittys that have so much fun – a loose foot once in a while is no biggie…
Just a loose peg. Agathe does have a slightly wonky leg due to a drilling mishap during carving. She is glad that her foot did not fly across the room this time!
This minor disaster has not seemed to lessen the cheeriness of the QH cupboard. It’s always a boon to read of the courage that comes from this particular Hitty cupboard.
The dolls are experts at minor mischief, but also good at entertaining themselves productively! We are always glad to see their joy undiminished by small setbacks.
Get well soon, Agathe! May you be back on your feet and on about your merry adventures quick as a wink! You must have given your poor human an awful fright when you threw your shoe!
We thought for a minute that Agathe was copying Tatty’s slightly pigeon-toed stance, but then realised she needed drastic attention!
Has this malady a proper name? Wizzy’s china, Miss Emily, has also suffered from an injured foot over at Whoopsadaisy Villa…do you suppose it’s contagious? All the best, though, to Agathe – hoping for a quick recovery!
The Hittys are looking it up in their Doll Hospital’s Medical Dictionary….they think it might be called Dropsy.
These are very self sufficient dolls. Not only do the fix and nurse one another, but the consult medical tomes as well.
The Medical Dictionary for Small Wooden People has terrifically descriptive classifications!
of course!
Oh thank goodness – a safe use of the broadsword! Poor Agathe. Distressing for all. However, she’s still looking cheerful and carrying on as if nothing happened. I do hate when parts fall off, though.
After the 24 hours are up, I don’t think it will slow her down any! Mungo says he would verry much like the sword back when she is done with it so he can learn the Highland Sword dance….his spirit is more than willing to try and we’ll see if his pegs are or not!
Oh dear. I’m so sorry the peg drilling mishap caused a lasting problem! Hopefully Agathe will fully recover and the dropsy will not occur again.
Agathe doesn’t mind in the least. especially, as it seems to result in cookies!
Goodness this was quite a shock. At first I had this vision of Agathe with a pirate like wooden peg leg!! So
happy to hear that the injury can be remedied with good glue and some rest. And of course some excellent
soda pop in my favorite flavor is a sure fire ingredient to any recovery. Min is such a thought little sister.
Again you have outdone yourself with fun photos!!!
Agathe was keen on the wooden peg-leg idea, but her human was not! She does have a dowel holding her foot on, but it is not meant to be exposed!
Glad you liked the pictures, Agathe and Min are perfectly happy to have a cookie and pop hiatus between adventures!
I went kayaking this morning. Hope my foot doesn’t fall off!
Oh – fun – did any Hittys go along??? Maybe Flavia could offer advice to Agathe on dealing with missing feet?
With Min by her side, Agathe will be just fine.
I think so too, especially if the recuperation involves cookies!
