I'm out of surgery & feeling no pain (so far). Apparently there was extensive damage, so I have to be about 50% non-weight-bearing for a couple of weeks. However, I've already been up & around, using my walker & impressing my therapists (the benefit of using a walker every day for almost 4 months!).
My dad saved our bacon (as usual!). This morning we left the house at about 4:45, & then realized we'd locked both sets of keys inside. Called my dad & he broke all kinds of speed limits to bring his housekey to us. We made it to the hospital only about 20 minutes late (I'd called & given them a heads up). Whew! Thanks Daddy!
I should be dozing, but instead I'm playing on my iPad. Which is basically what I usually do at home. Ha! I'll write a more detailed post about what's what later. Thanks for all the positive energy sent my way!
