Surgery

Tomorrow is the big day.  The good Dr. is going to drill into my knee and put bone glue where the break is.  He told me that I may curse him for a few days while the glue hardens, or I may not.  Some people take longer than others to heal.  I'm hoping it's the I may not and start getting around without crutches SOON.  The muscles, particularly in my left shoulder, are telling me they aren't happy.  I reckon that if I had to get around on sticks longer they'd adjust.  I've gotten pretty antsy, particularly this week.  It's been over a month since I first broke the bone and sitting around the house is definitely not my cup of tea.  There is lots that needs to be done around here.  I'm lucky to have a friend that loves to play in the dirt.  Thanks to her my veggie garden is showing signs of maturing. 
Don't know how long it'll be before I give a progress report (if you really need one).  Meanwhile I'd appreciate any healing vibes you send this way.

Good luck, Momlady. I would take the glue over pins and crutches any day, and a week vs. a month. Today I am 5 weeks + past since my latest (second) surgery on the same set of toes, and still uncomfortable, but better.
Looking forward to hearing how it all goes, and sending good thought and prayers your way ...

I hope the bone blue works with as little pain as necessary. I know you must be antsy to get going again.

Good thoughts headed your way, my friend!
