Prayers for Staci ~ *Screw's OUT* on 10/30/07 ~ Let the HEALING Begin!

[jennielynn1970]

Glad to hear you and your foot are feeling better!

Awe... you had a baby mouse cuddling with you?! Poor little thing, he probably just wanted to keep warm! Be glad you aren't my neighbors across the street... they just trapped 36 squirrels in the house they just bought!! Apparently the old guy they bought it from didn't tell them about the visitors or the flying visitors either (bats!!!).

[Cinder & Smoke]

I MIGHT be home tomorrow nite for a nite or 2 - as a trial run.

NO pain in the foot area, but more pain - in the rest of the body ---
from sleeping in a strange bed ....

"Solo" at Home ... Wonder what the Mom Person's gonna say about THAT!

Since Mom drives the Taxi ... not so sure the Trip Home is really gonna happen so soon!

If ya go --- **** dat Killer Back Step

{{{Hugs}}}

A big red dog told me that Staci's mom isn't the one that needs convincing ("your old enough to make your own decisions..."), it's Pop that wants his baby girl at home a little longer.

Hope you're feeling better and mouse free, Staci-roo! Miss ya!

[shais_mom]

well I'm HOOMMEE!
might be temporary -
it might a trial run for a couple days.
I haven't much left the wheel chair since I got here.
Yup the killer back step -
but it wasn't MY STEP that got me. I was headed inside at my parents house and apparently instead going up the first step (it's higher than mine is)and hesitating I apparently swung on thru and SPLAT I went flat on my belly. I couldn't even catch myself b/c of the crutches. My mom screamed. Keegan was excited that I was down her level and dad attempted to grab my pants - but missed but that would have been one helluva wedgie. AND I probably wouldn't have brought him down with me.
I wasn't hurt other than my pride, I suppose. My mom announced that I wasn't GOING home. But I got teary eyed b/c I just really wanted to be in my HOME. With my things and my animals and my couch and my BED. Mostly my bed. B/c I thought the bed that I was sleeping on was going to KILL ME.
I had 2 nervous parents that left me with strict orders to have my phone on me at all times and to check in FREQUENTLY!
I certainly won't say I'm back in action but I'm back on the bench!

[Cinder & Smoke]

She's gonna kill herself!

OMG!

Can Keegan dial 9-1-1 ?
With your *Oopsie* at the M&D Ranch ... I'm surprised Mom isn't camping on your couch!

TRY to stay OFF the Killer Steps!

Happie "comfortable" & "Mouse-FREE" BigBed!!

{{{Hugs}}}

[jennielynn1970]

It's amazing how being in your own bed can make you feel so much better! I'm the same way... I hate leaving my kitties, even if it's only for a few nights.

[anna_66]

Welcome Home Staci! Hope you sleep good tonight

[jazzcat]

Glad to hear you are back home Staci. Watch those steps!!

[joycenalex]

i just saw the trip and splat post. girlfriend, how many times has your mom/dad called you? and please, do not do anything else to get yourself on the funniest videos shows. monster wedgies indeed!

[shais_mom]

I'm doing just fine...
My mom called me at 10 after 10 this morning and I was just waking up. My dad said - she won't be awake yet - she's in her OWN bed!
he was right.
I slept the best I had since Tues nite under vicodin induced sleep!
Foot doesn't hurt. I think Keegan is put off a bit b/c at least at my parents house she didn't have to get out of the way of the wheelchair all the time.

[Cinder & Smoke]

Tuesday ~~~ It's Doctor Day!

Mom-Taxi should be pullin in and *honkin* da horn for the Passenger.

They're headed off to the White Coat's Lab (just around the corner) for
an exam and hopefully a change to a more "comfortable" splint.

Then it's off to Wally's World for some "supplies" ...
then Who Knows What may be next.

Keegan will probably enjoy the quiet time -
no chance of getting her Tail *smushed* by a wreckless Wheelcahir Driver!

They're still investigating yesterday's Run-Over Tail accident ... trying to determine
if the *smushed* Tail was caused by Careless Tail Placement ~~~
or Bad Chair-Drivin by the impaired Crutcher.

HAPPIE Day Out, Staci!

[shais_mom]

I'm voting for the careless tail placement.
visted Dr.
had a dressing change only. Am still in the original splint. Which is fine. (I think it bothers Phred more than me b/c he keeps telling me to tell the dr to change it ) It doesn't bother me b/c it helps me catch my balance. Next week will be dressing change and possible cast or maybe a splint. He said it depends on how good of a girl I am! I may be in a body cast then!
Anything to keep me off of it.
But things are still progressing. The screw is about 2-3 inches long and goes across the fracture site, to pull it together.

[pitc9]

Glad to hear the screw is still in place!

Does the BRD needs a splint on her tail now?!

[shais_mom]

Glad to hear the screw is still in place!

not a splint but some ROGAINE might be good!

[Cinder & Smoke]

A 'Crutchin' she will go ...

I'm pretty sure Today (Saturday, October 6th) is the Day of the Wedding
(NOT Staci's - a Friend's wedding).

And I think Our Patient is gong to be her own Taxi Driver, and Crutcher.

Wish her luck in finding a close-to-the-door parking space;
as well as NO Killer Steps 'tween the car and her seat!

Happie Crutchin, and have **Phunn**!
