The terrible sliding stopped, and I hung silently against the slope. Three faint tugs
trembled the taut rope, and I hopped up on to my leg. A wave of nausea and pain
swept over me. I was glad of the freezing blasts of snow biting into my face. My
head cleared as I waited for the burning to subside from my knee. Several times ]
had felt it twist sideways when my boot snagged. There would be a flare of agony
as the knee kinked back, and parts within the joint seemed to shear past each
other with a sickening gristly crunch. I had barely ceased sobbing before my boot
snagged again. At the end my leg shook uncontrollably. I tried to stop it shaking,
but the harder I tried, the more it shook. I pressed my face into the snow, gritted my
teeth, and waited. At last it eased.​
