thanks again for everyone who's sent prayers/ghood wishes/vibes my way since got word to you.
Of course IF my surgeon says I have to wait another week or 2 I'll be rather dissapointed ( I want to be able to walk - right NAO! ) I'll just have to practice MOAR patience!
Tho I sure HOPE I make the first transition this Tues.
Just about all the various staff here at this Nursing Home (where for those who don't know is where my parents lived the last 8 (mom) and 10 (dad) years of their live) are quite nice. Lots of staff remember one or both of them!
I'm working on a Spring Green Trees painting ( Activities groups) and copper enameling which my mom taught me decades ago- in fact she donated her equipment to the NH when she moved in.
The PT & OT people have been very good and I try to push my self each time tyhey have me walking with the walker which IS for me 80% + better than those scary Crutches!
For longer distances like getting to this computer room I use the wheelchair. Actaully right now they're having me do longer and longer distances I think also --so that @home the distances won't fgeel as long as well.
Though having to get into a car service for future ap[ppoinemtns will be dome with some kind of walker ...but i'll probably have an aide for that too- I'll need that extra longer walking distance experience! gak!
for those dropping 1st time I fractured my right ankle on 4/6 missed the last step on wood stairs and whammo. I reaslly thopught i only had a bad sprain b/c 1 of my previos sprains ( left ankle) I "saw Stars" SOOOO PAINFUL this wasn't as bad , needed surgery with screws ! (4/19)
anyway addtional prayers/good wishes/ vibes for this specific day gratefully excpeted!
Thanks again!!!
