I want to once again thank those who replied when I needed help with clothing ideas for someone with a shoulder injury. I was so unsure of what type of clothing to even start making..although as it turns out what I had in mind was what was on sites for adaptive clothing and it put my mind at ease that I was doing the right thing. My daughter is finally going in for the surgery on her rotator cuff at the end of the month. She is so scared. She has heard so many comments behind her back from people who 'wondered why she decided to carry her baby to term.' Having her baby on Jan 3 was a blessing to her even though she tore the remaining tissue holding her shoulder during delivery. I made some suggestions and she asked me if I was trying to scare her more. I wasn't trying to scare her more. I wanted her to be prepared...to look around and see how she can truly organize her house to make the coming months a bit easier before her surgery, not fighting it after. Things her sons can help her with. We read that a recliner is extremely helpful so she is looking for a reasonably priced one. I have a pattern for a boppy type thingy (looks to be larger then the store purchased ones) that I cut out yesterday so she can put it across her lap to help support the baby when she is holding her. She is so independent in her thinking having to just sit back and have others help her for a change will be the hardest thing ever for her. She is someone who when she has car problems she is out and under it doing the repairs because her husband doesn't know the first thing about the repairs she has done. She asks her brother what to do and goes out and does it.(her brother is in the auto industry) Now with the help of God she will get through this next obstacle. I can't get to Montana for several months yet to give her a hand. Finances and the weather won't allow it. I am terrified of the snow due to an accident years ago. So, I hope her family starts to realize the pillar of the family needs the help she has been so graciously giving. That again is in God's hands. Sorry to have carried on so..Hugs, Kathy from CA
