Welcome back! What a horrible, terrifying experience. I'm glad you're better. Is your leg continuing to heal?

Post by: Ohio Buckeye on December 31, 2007, 03:15:22 PM
Hi
So good to hear from you all.
I am resting and taking it easy, staying with friend and friends are
coming in to stay with me when she is working.   Thank God for good friends.
I enjoyed Christmas and looking forward to 2008!
I've taken 2 falls.  On geting in wheelchair and one geting out
of bed. Both required the aid of policeman or fireemen to get back up.  :(
No leg is a hard adjustment.
Looking forward to getting my prosthesis.
I'm very limited in using left arm because of having fibulator/pace. in so have discontinued
therapy until I can use it more.
Thank you for all your prayers and well wishes.
and oh yes, Go bucks!
and Happy New Year!

Dear OB, so glad to hear from you.  We all worry about you and are glad you have such great friends to help you.  Now, rest and save your energy for the 7th because I know you will be watching the Buckeyes play!   My husband got the official game t-shirt and will be in Columbus to watch the game with his family.  I know you will be wearing a buckeye necklace, shrit, earrings---right??  

I am sorry you have had such a rough time and I am hoping 2008 is a better year. You certainly are a strong woman and I admire you very much. :cuddle;
