Saw my surgeon today - it isn't going to heal anymore. Rehab is futile.
Another surgery recommended - nerve damage possible.
And with that bad news, I remain pleased that it isn't worse; that I'm not having to carry my left arm around in my right! It could be much worse.
Call me disabled with a good attitude.
Positive thinking isn't exactly what's going on here. I dont believe I'll wake up one day with my arm suddenly working again. But, there are positives in this picture.
In a year, maybe there'll be better screws and plates out there. - Really!
Maybe something good will happen. That's possible, after all, isn't it. My glass is half full.
Even free-spirits get tested by life stuff. After going through everything since Hurricane Katrina, surely figured I was done for a while.
Appreciate your elbows!!!!
