So, I knew I had my first follow-up visit today, but I just had to get some watering in, it’s been sooo dry these past few weeks! My recently planted hydrangeas were so sad looking and the plants foolishly purchased right before my surgery require water almost daily. So…I water. I am careful, so careful, all is going well, almost done…wait, what is that flying towards my face! Holy Toledo, it landed on my face! Crap crap crap!! Water wand goes one way, BOTH my hands fly to my face, luckily I am wearing the horrid sling. While I experience a few moments of severe pain, it goes away quickly with no lingering effects, whew! I pass along the story to the Surgeon’s PA, “That’s called a knee-jerk reaction, that’s why you wear the sling.” “Yes ma’am”, I reply.
Heading to the Physical Therapist tomorrow….
