Well today was PT, tomorrow nurse, so stitches still in. I am excited to say Tracy my PT was awesome! No straight leg raise, no heel slides, no bridges. And she has a friend who had hip surgery and did the straight leg raise recommended by her PT and pulled a groin muscle or strain, anyway she was miserable for several weeks healing it. So Tracy never has her patients do those. Thinks bridges raise the knees too high and does not like them anyway. She herself needs a new hip in a few years. Shes waiting it out longer. We hit it off really good and the things she had me do were very conservative and did not hurt or freak me out. I told her all about bonesmart and showed her the site. She was impressed. She said anything you don't want to do we won't do it.
The sun is out today.
My husband vacuumed, dusted and is washing the floors as I type. Last night I talked him through making home made potato salad his first time, and he grilled hotdogs. I usually don't eat hotdogs, but I'm temporarily eating red meat to get my iron. I don't believe this guy, he really is my hero through this. Sorry, but I just got to brag about him. First time dusting and mopping. He's had a shoulder replacement, hand surgery, and is on watch and wait diagnosis for non hodgkin's lymphoma. He has no symptoms yet other than swelling on his neck. 45 years married, believe me we've had our trials, and tribulations, but now in our old age we are so glad we stayed together and worked things out.
He's also a diabetic, and for 15 years I have managed to fix meals that are diabetic friendly and kept him off insulin shots just pills. I had to say something good about myself,
so people that read this won't think I'm a bad wife.
