Sorry, no Rally
The Dr's appointment yesterday was sobering. Had a minor setback on Wed after feeling pretty good. I believe I put the wrong motion on that new rotator cuff rotator repair. Started going down hill. In the Dr's office the next day, he mentioned it looked like the bicept had slipped down. I asked him to confirm the pre-op discussion about the tissue not being in very good shape. He looked right me and said, No, Dave, it wasn't in very good shape at all.
Suddenly, it hit me like a ton of bricks. This could fail. The joint replacement looks good, but the muscles are of concern. I don't have any left to play around with. This is it for me. If I lose this left one then I have NO good arms!
Cheryl is working hard to keep me in a positive attitude about this. I could not get the doc to commit to a prognosis only 7 days out of surgery. I will be in this sling for 5 more weeks at least - including sleeping in it. Do not pick up anything with that hand larger than a small glass of water - PEROID!.
NO DRIVING UNTIL OCT 8th.
This bummed Cheryl out as she can drive but loves that passenger seat.
We will see about making a one night/two day trip down to the Rally during that stretch. Not the same without our Montana, but we miss our friends. Not sure what days. We will look over the Agenda and then have to see how both Cheryl and I are doing...
