Hi Baby!
What an unbelievable day! I went to see my surgeon today for my two week post-surgical appointment, and the impossible happened. He gave me a full discharge!! No more appointments, no more PT, I was free to go and do whatever I can handle, including riding! After 15 days! Unbelievable! When they took the bandage off, I couldn't believe it. I had teased him a little on the morning of my surgery about making sure the scar was just as good or better than the one the "boys" down at Cleveland Clinic had done on my right leg, and believe me, he took that gauntlet and ran with it. This is one beautiful seam. No puckering, no scabbing, it was lined up perfectly. It will be almost invisible in a year. Gorgeous! I left there a very happy camper indeed! Stopped at Walmart on the way home and picked up a few things, then managed to get them put away before Darlene, my night nurse from West Marion Hospital arrive with her daughter, and we proceeded to move the horses over from Chelle's back home. Great to have them back, and I can't wait to try to ride! They groomed and spoiled them for over an hour before they had to leave. Now that I'm free of PT, which I thought would keep me here until at least June 16, I can look at my schedule and see how much sooner I can get out of here. The temps are in the 90's now, definitely time to head north!! I managed to make a vet appointment for tomorrow to get updated Coggins and health papers, and glad I could get it because she's going on vacation all next week and it would be June before I could get them. Don't want to stay here any longer than necessary! Tried to do a little planning but ran out of time. Had a pleasant evening, and was thrilled to take a shower where I didn't have to wrap my leg up with cling wrap. It looked so much better when I finished my shower than it even does in the picture. SO HAPPY! Can't wait to get back on the road again! I have a bunch of stuff to do next week, but I could easily get out of here by the following week, maybe earlier. I have a few things to check on first, but it's all happening so quickly, which is just the way I like it! Finishing my tea and cookies and heading to bed forthwith! Good night, sweetheart! Love you!
