On A Journey To The Unknown

I went see the bone specialist this morning. He confirmed that my wrist is broken. It is the small bone in my wrist that is broken. He said that my knee has some fluid on it and that I have (in his words) an “ACL injury/internal derangement” on my right knee. I don’t know exactly what that means, other than it hurts. He is sending me to physical therapy twice a week for 4 weeks, then I have to go back to see the him (the bone specialist) in a month. He put some kind of knee brace on my knee. It makes it a little easier for me to walk.
As for my ribs, my doctor said they should heal in about 6 weeks. As long as I don’t laugh, cough, sneeze, and so on, my ribs won’t hurt too bad.
I still only have one hand to type with. But, I can walk a little bit better, now, with the knee brace on instead of the leg emobilizer.

Sue,
So what you're saying is that you aren't going to read any humorous posts?

Sorry for the slow recovery! Hope you're well soon.

(big hugggssssssss) Oh Sue, I'm relieved at least you are healing, sweet friend, I hope you get well real soon and can walk and type with both hands again and your knee can be treated! (sigh) God Bless You, you continue to be in my thoughts, dearest friend!

Sweet Sue, I'm so glad to hear that you're
healing in your body. I know it's a slow
process for bones to heal. Just please
try to do what the doctor says.....the best
you can, anyway. We all love you here and
are praying for you.

With Love And hugs,
Ethel
