Good day Cuties! Just an update
I saw the orthopedic today- he did repeat X-rays to check and said still in place. Told to keep in sling and come back in 3 more weeks to X-ray again. He did do more X-rays on my elbow. It looked good so said pain in elbow could be deferred pain from shoulder. I came home and took my first pain pill in a week because the way I had to position my arm for elbow X-ray caused severe pain. I will probably take a nap now. Hope so anyway. I told him I would follow his directions because I want to fully recover. I told him I had more sewing and quilting to do. He said I may have to work hard to get back fully and I told him I wasn’t afraid of work. So…time will tell. Hope your day is good for you ❤️Toogie

18140Each day you will feel better - I know that because you don't want to injury it further and you are doing what the doctor ordered. I finally got over my back spasm but it would not have happened if I hadn't done exactly what my doctor told me to do. You have had major breaks - so it will take time. I am so sorry it happened. I bet you are wondering how you could have stopped your fall - but, no way to go back. You are dealing with the results with a lot of class! Keep up the good work! Bunches of hugs and prayers for you Toogie! Feel better every day! Laura

Thank you for your words of encouragement, Laura. I know why I fell, but I was thinking just last night and counting how fortunate I was, that I didn't hurt my back. I have had so much trouble with it, so I really am blessed and thankful.

33641Well that is good news. I think, knowing you, the harder part is for you not to try to do more than you should. 😊 I know it is frustrating. Hang in there and better days will be coming.

I am being good believe me but it’s tiring not doing anything. I rather be busy but I have patience bc it still hurts and I want it to heal well.
109774Well, it is mostly good news that you are healing, but I know the increased pain is most unpleasant. A gentle hug to you for being a good patient.

169064Hi Toogie, that's encouraging news and I know you will do as your Doctor has asked, won't you?
Our bodies need time to recuperate after such a break and what a bad place for a break - I hope that you heal quickly and can get back to your beloved sewing, but in the meantime, rest as much as you can. As Caroline has said - sleep is good and you regenerate whilst you sleep. Love Chris

234501toogie its good to hear that your slowly improving. Healing takes so much longer as we get older and we get frustrated that its taking longer as we have so much we want to do. Hope the pills work and you have a sleep. Sleep is good
