and so it goes ..

I have had another surgery. This time it was my left ankle. Two screws to put it back together. The surgery went great! It all happened fast. The surgery was on June 11. Three weeks done, and three weeks to go. The no weight bearing has been a pain in the butt. Sarah dear sweet kind Sarah took care of me week one. It was much more difficult on both of us than I had realized it would be. That first day after surgery was a killer. Rehab made more difficult by the fact that I am out of shape and fat.

Surgery list
Tonsils
Glass wall accident, stitches
Fell off horse, concussion
Cracked tail bone
Impacted tooth-oral surgery
Skin tag on lower eye lid
Skin tags removed from neck
left knee ACL removed
gall bladder removed
mastectomy
lumpectomy
carpal tunnel and stuck thumb both wrists
hairline fracture right foot
rotator cuff
fractured left ankle-surgery two screws

I make these lists in an effort to see if compared to others I am ahead or behind the norm. I seem to check the norm. Am I shorter, fatter, louder, less educated, dressed well enough? Is it safe to leave the house? Will I make it home safely?
