Staci's DAD needs Prayers ~ Pain *Fixed* ~ Back HOME & Recovering

[gini]

Staci, it must be really difficult for your Dad, a man of action, to slow down and let himself heal.

You know he is in my prayers.

I hope you dad starts to take it easy and is pain free soon! *hugs*

So, how's it going with our Favorite Ohio Patient??

HOPEFULLY he's "behaving" and listening to Mrs. Nurse.

[shais_mom]

well behave isn't in his vocabulary!
never has been - never will be - that's why he's an Only child - he definately broke the mold!
He went to a dinner last nite with the Farm Bureau and got along just great. Today I talked to him around noon and he was wore out from....
....
Talking on the phone....

the pain comes and goes but they are keeping on top of it.
The Big red Hot Dog and I are headed over there tomorrow.

"Well Behaved" isn't in his vocabulary!

....
Talking on the phone....

Oh well ...
at least he's not *Chasing the Nurse* around the house! (Yet)

Hook da Big Red Hot Dawg to his walker and send them out for a stroll!

Hope your Mom (aka da Nurse) is holding up OK.

give him time - he keeps making aaahhhh suggestions and mom I think just keeps feeding him more pills. And I bet NONE of them are the little blue ones that have a "V" on them!!
Mom had run into town earlier in the day and the house phone rang and he got up and went to answer it and was halfway there when he remembered that he didn't have his walker (oops that's a no-no) OR his BRACE (that is an even BIGGER NO NO) but he figgered he was already half way there he might as well go the rest of the way!

And I bet NONE of them are the little blue ones that have a "V" on them!!

Ha! I remember those little blue ones but I only got them on day one and two of my hospital stay. I think I remember asking for one on day three but was refused. Oh well.

I know how hard it is to have to slow down but it truly is necessary for the healing process no matter what kind of sir jury you have. Sounds like he is as stubborn as me.....no insult intended, OK?? It's just that the telephone story sounds like something I would have done. Hey, why go back and get the walker and brace, and miss a phone call?

Feel better Mr. Staci's Dad. Slow and steady wins the race.
