{{{{{{{STACI}}}}}}} :) Take it easy and feel better!!! :D
Glad to hear everything went well Staci!!
{{{HUGS}}} and sending you wishes for a speedy and FULL recovery!
sleep sweet staci, and pray tell...what will be your 'light duty' ?
Just got Stace's text. She's feeling kinda nauseas from a bad headache prob. caused by the pain and then the sedation. Please send some prayers her way....its hard for her to be given these orders to be off work for 6 weeks, AGAIN. She's fearful, as anyone else would be here, of having her job in trouble or the very least them being mad at her...
Lots of prayers, good thoughts and vibes being sent your way my sweet...
Love ya,
Kelly & Kits
XOXOXOXXOO
Sure hope you feel better soon Staci.
Oh my gosh... and here I thought things would be going better after the other surgery. I lose track of all these threads! I can't imagine being awake while a doctor is taking a screw out of my foot, actually, removing a screw from anywhere on my body!!
It's sad that you have to be afraid of losing your job because of a surgery that didn't work correctly or as it was supposed to. It's not your fault for goodness sake! Like you need more stress when you are supposed to be recovering!
I checked with The Patient about 8:40 PM ...
She was rather *alert* but suffering bouts of :eek: pain, throbbing, and aching ...
She'll take a Vicodin just before she settles in wiffa Mouse ... too soon and she'll
never make it to the bed! (And Mr. Mouse will be lonesome!) :p
The Bus Driver/Head Nurse has a prior engagement tomorrow ... going to Columbus to do -
get this - CHRISTMAS Shoppin! On Halloween???
Northbound Cabin Bus leaves about 4:00 PM Thursday after Mrs. Santa's sleigh returns ...
and Dad *IS* going along.
Purrayers needed for a restful and pain-FREE night; and a Safe Trip North tomorrow.
Oh, and God ~ Can you ask da Mouse to NOT *snore* too loud tanite?
:D
{{{Huggz}}} for The Patient!
{{{{{hugs}}}}} Staci.
I think 'light duty' should be mashing whipped cream pies into the faces of colleagues who are mad that you are not back at work (wait til you get back, though! :D )
Kelly and Phred - thanks SO much for the uppydates. :)
I'm really sorry to hear you were feeling so bad yesterday. I'm really hoping that today will be much better.
Another 6 weeks hu? Well if that doesn't just suck :(
Love ya girl
Doh! Lemme clear something up. Stace's co-workers aren't mad at her for not being there. They are being very sweet and supportive...I was saying that anyone in this situation would feel like their co-workers would loose patience.
Stace works with some good people, like she said, she's had one of them in surgery with her, looking out for her and wishing her well. I just wanted to offer some thought on what else Stace is going through, not "just" all these foot problems.
Hugs, Kelly :)
Stace, I'll call you at lunch or after work to check on you, sweetie. Get well and get rest. ((gentle hugs))
I'm sorry to hear about the pain you are in. :( I hope you feel better soon!
I think you read too much into the doing our own thing. Has nothing to do with Michigan.Quote:

like a happy medium after 3 weeks.
still in a lot of pain -
from back of hip to foot. Took 2 7.5 mg vicodin's to ease it. moving slowly and surely.
:) we will be out of email/some cell phone range starting tonite. So I'll be txting zippy and graciously agreed to update after this point!
Thanks for the continued prayers and well wishes! Keep em coming - i'm gonna need them! :D
Thanks for clearing that up Kel.Quote:

My friend (co-worker) was mad at the surgeon/anesthist b/c they didn't take care of my pain while I was in surgery and I asked the surgeon if he was mad at me b/c he was allowing my pain.
:) no worries :D
None of this sounds like much "phun" to me...............I hope you can get the pain under control and it eases soon. Lots of shock going on with that ankle for sure!
Big hugs to you and I hope you feel better soon.
