...aaannnd now I'm back!

I'm home again and feeling pretty darn good. No problems with surgery and recovery, but remember that little bike wreck I mentioned in my last post? By Tuesday morning, my left wrist, which had only been a liitle stiff and sore, turned out to be fractured. The nurse-anesthetist took one look at it and said, "umm, that's not good." So xrays were called for and there was some drama due to the possibility of surgery being delayed. On first review of the film, everything looked ok, so it was on to surgery.  But someone went back for another look later on and found  a nonseparating fracture. So I ended up with a temporary splint, and I'll see someone locally about that next week.

So, yes, I am Ironwoman. Thanks for asking!

Has anyone heard from Angela? She was supposed go be getting surgery at OHSU yesterday. I thought about her quite often.

Congratulations, Ironwoman!!!
So glad they were able to do the surgery, but a bummer about the wrist. It is euphoric when you come home after the surgery, I felt the same way.
Good luck,
Vicki

Oh dear!  Sorry to hear about your wrist, but it's good someone caught it and you can get treated.  Probably just splinting and then PT will do it if it didn't separate.  I'm glad to hear surgery went forward and you're doing well.  Congratulations!

so glad about your surgery going well. And of course your recovery too. Now we just have to focus on your journey with a poor fractured wrist....ouch!  Just keep paddling with the other. We're here to carry you if needed!

True wishes
