Carole knowing you, that wrist support is coming off the moment you get to your embroidery machine, which probably has already happened. I hope you take care of that wrist and slow down a bit. Praying that the injection and pills will help John feeling better.

hope the pills for HB and the brace for you will do the job. Take good care. Didn't they have a brace in your favorite color? perhaps you can pimp it up a little. Hugs and prayers for the both of you )))

Triple needle makes that arm support seem inconsequential. Ow, ow, ow. Hope all the treatments help you both. I think doc is again "hinting" that you may be stitching too much, hooping too much, etc.

Ouch for the two of you! I don't like the cast or the thought of a big needle for John. So I hope the pills work quickly for him and you are a good girl and keep the cast on. Hmm we have to come up with some way to incorporate purple into that cast. I'm thinking of a pretty purple bow. Or a purple sleeve to go over the cast. And maybe that could be embroidered.

Dear Carolyn, I'm glad you both got to go the doctor. I hope everything goes well. Today I have 3 hours infusion for my arthritis and each time I go cost me $1,000.00 dollars, but it is working. Like for your husband, this was the last resort after trying everything else treatment. I feel a lot better, thanks God. Many blessings to you and your husband! Love, Yoriko

Do hope that you both feel better soon, and that the brace will give your arm a rest and help to mend quickly. John is still in for a battle, hope this will ease his pain. Time for both of you to slow down and look after yourselves. Book reading time i think. Sandra.

Oh I'm so glad you went to the doctors for both of you! RA is a real PAIN to live with for both parties. Hope John is feeling better. I have to tell you I have the twin to you wrist friend. You need to stitch some FSL butterflies in purple to adorn your rather plain 'friend' lol hugs and prayers for you both.

Ouch for both, needles and price tag, praying that things improve for him. As for you, (I have been there) you have to give your arm the time to heel. It is probably the hardest thing to do (nothing) but it is the best thing to do. So try to relax and little and hopefully it will improve.

Where there's a will there's a way,right Carolyn?. Wish neither of you had to go through all this and hoping you will be much better soon. How is all that wood going to be cut for the winter?. Hoping you already have plenty. {{((({((Hugs}))))))))). Lillian

Don't tug on Superman's cape. Don't spit into the wind. Don't pull the mask of the old Lone Ranger and don't tell Carolyn to take it easy. Prayers for John and his relief and for your wrist, too.
