Good morning my dear friends.
Home for six days now, only fallen three times and no injuries. Wow I had to take breaks when reading the thread postings I've missed, the tears were just endless.
So what can I tell you?
Go for 3 days and end up spending 39 I think. No shower during that time either.
Jeff's visit was a real mental break for me - they can't come better than that. Sorry I was not communicative more. I spent most of the time sleeping (never longer than a 2 hour stretch 24 hours a day).
Staff were excellent, exceptional really.
The start was scary for me, 5 doctors and so many tests had to be done and to be positive for the surgery to go ahead. All ended up going my way. I honestly think I had maybe 3 weeks to live before my body was overwhelmed.
The pain was worse than anything they could have prepared me for. At a scale I could never have imagined.
I could not have survived this without mom and my gf. The mental game was much harder.
So trying to learn to type with one hand, slower to make fewer mistakes.
You guys! The collection was so thoughtful! In conjunction with my gf I am going to look at advancing to a smart phone! It doesn't mean mean you'll be hearing from me more often but it will be a start.
As my hand is fading fast I have to go, so with great love to you all for your support,
Garry
