This healing is taking too long.....

I was able to shower alone yesterday, that was a step forward and I really enjoyed it.  dh went back to work today so I am alone during the day, but it is working out fine.  Thursday I go for my post-op appointment, I made it late in the day so dh could drive me.  I am walking fairly well, just hurts to stand for too long.  I have been watching day-time TV alot and enjoy all the Judge shows....LOL.  Friends have brought over food last week and I sure hope they continue this week, I can't cook yet, Gary doesn't really know how and take-out gets old.  Beautiful day today, the sun is out and it's 74.  Wednesday the rain will come back, but we need it and I enjoy listening to it and watching the raindops fall, I have always loved the rainy weather when it's mild and not stormy.   Fall is my favorite time of year!

Hi Gabby


Well girl it sounds like you are making progress and the healing is going pretty well. Getting to take a shower by yourself is a big step. Thank heavens for wonderful friends and neighbors who will bring over meals. Jim doesn't really cook either but if I can sit close by and give directions he doesn't do to bad any more.


Daytime TV can be a vast wasteland but I agree the Judge shows make it easier. LOL


Hope all goes well at the Drs. Take it easy girlfriend and keep feeling better everyday.


Love ya

Gabby, it sounds like you're really making headway with your healing. I hope your neighbors continue bringing meals, as that really is a lot of work when recovering. Daytime TV is.......ummmmm......interesting. Enjoy your nice weather, winter is on it's way.

IT is not great when the healing takes so long,but the main thing is you are healing.


I hope you feel much better very soon!

Glad to hear your healing. Slowly is frustrating when so much one wants to do. Hope your friends continue to help.


Best wishes,


Rain

There's some magic dust to help you get healing faster, Gabby! Geez, girl, give it time. Hasn't been that long.


Nice you have friends bringing you in food. I bet you'd do the same thing for them if the shoe was on the other foot!


Now...about those tv programs...Judge shows???? That would drive me crazy!


Glad you can get to your computer, anyway.


Gentle hugs,
