I was perhaps a little naive about this surgery. The surgeon didn’t’t have to deal with the open cut on the side of my wrist, and the plate was small. This is a larger plate that spans from perhaps six inches below the elbow to the back of the hand. And I had forgotten that he said I was receiving a one graft as well. Perhaps not surprising that there is so much pain. I’m alternating ibuprofen with the oxycodone with Tylenol every three hours, and keeping wrist elevated. Someone from doc office called to check in this afternoon.
Dh came through and walked the dog. I’m going to microwave eggplant parm from the freezer for my supper.
Dfriend M came by earlier and took dmillie for a walk. Not much is happening here.
Lucylee, grief isn’t a straight line. It’s more like a spiral that circles itself, sometimes repeating or moving to another plane and coming back through on you.
