Good afternoon everyone, I still have a cast on my right wrist, which makes typing trying at best. I went to the my Dr. yesterday and he removed the old cast for X-Rays. Wrist is healing but not there yet. He put another cast on for 3 more weeks. I have to say I am disappointed, I thought I would be getting a removable cast and would be able to return to work, drive so forth. He advised me to stop trying to use my hand and let it heal. Do you know how hard it is to do everything left handed? I have done okay but it has been a struggle.
I have improvised a way to crochet, but that moves very slowly. I had several projects I was working on and now they are delayed. very frustrating for me. I do a lot of things with my hands on a daily basics just like everyone else. I know I sound like I am complaining and I am, I just feel bad doing it. I know I still have it good considering all else that could be wrong.
I believe I have taken good health for granted. Not that I meant to do this it just happened. Until you are on the rough side of the fence you just don't think about what things could be like. I watched a video the other day about a man with no legs or arms that has managed to do more than I have ever even tried to do.
It is remarkable to see the things he has accomplished in his life. I admire someone who never gives up and always makes the best of a bad situation. As he said no two days are alike and every day brings new challenges for him. But he faces them head on with determination and pride.
His name is Nick Vujicic. Look him up on Google you will be amazed. After watching his video I was embarrassed I had even complained. I am thankful for what God has given me and the life I have.
My grandsons PJ and Devan are sweet and caring boys. We went to the Ft. Worth Zoo last Monday and had a great time. The day was great they enjoyed every minute of it. It is times like that I realize how good life can be. I am grateful they are healthy and doing so well. Well I guess I will close for now be back later until then stay happy!Kimyjo
I would so love a visit to the Fort Worth Zoo. But, since I won't be in the area for a while, it will have to be Mesker Zoo, in Evansville. :)
ReplyDeleteHope you mend quickly and can get back to being right handed. :)
