Bye Bye Dr. B

Went to the wrist doctor today and there is good news and bad news.

Which would you like first?  The good news?  Okie dokie.

The good news is I have been released by the doctor and I don’t have to wear the brace anymore unless I want to .  Little does he know that I gave it up a week ago! But, anyway, that is good.

The bad news?  Well, apparently I have excessive and severe arthritis in my hand and tendon damage around my thumb — that isn’t new though and has nothing to do with the fall/fracture. It could, however, have something to do with my hand still hurting.

And I still have physical therapy which I am happy about — I don’t think I am ready to be released from that.  I am still on the schedule for this week and we will see what happens after that.

So, tomorrow I am going to try to cross stitch and maybe finally get my New Orleans picture finished.

No more brace!!! And I hope cross stitching goes well. My hand is healed but I have bad arthritis in both hands. I sewed on a button on DH's shirt the other day and it took me forever. But I got it done.

Update

 Yes, it has been a month — and what a month it has been.  Long story short all the grafts from my husbands bypass surgery have disappeared ...
