Update on Becky. She was to see the ortho surgeon today. He removed her up over the elbow cast and removed the stitches in her wrist. Replaced the cast with a half cast at the wrist and an Ace bandage to hold it on. Set her up to start PT at with a young lady she has dealt with after a wrist surgery she had in the past. All in all the doc was pleased so far.

Becky is doing ok. She has a custom splint her hand and wrist PT made for her instead of a cast now. Still a little painful but that is to be expected when you have broken bones healing. She can drive to run errands and such herself again. That helps her not to feel she is helpless. So all in all much better. Still has a lot if healing time and PT to get through. Thanks for asking Frank.

Yup , our healing time takes longer . Plus I’m sure she’s a lot happier getting around again.
Good to hear.

I haven't posted an update on Becky for a while. Her wrist is healing well but in the interim she found out she also recieved a compression fracture of one of her lumbar vertebrae in the fall. She thought the pain was just bruising till I convinced her she needed to get it checked out. Nothing to do for it but let it heal and try to ease the pain.

Here we go again! Please continue to pray for my wife Becky. She fell outside last night taking two of the dogs out and broke her right ankle and the bottom of the fibula bone. The ortho surgeon will operate this morning at 11 AM to put it all back together.
She is still trying to get past the broken wrist and the L3 lumbar vertebrae from her fall the day after Christmas. The vertebrae is healing ok but the wrist is going to need another surgery.
To try and inject a little humor into the situation I think I need to invest in bubble wrap.

Poor Becky,,,,and,,,, Doug!
They say trouble always comes in 3's. So she had the first accident, then the pandemic sequestered people, and now this incident...WHEW!!! That's 3 - so no more for a while!
You might want to invest in a cow - have her start drinking a LOT more calcium for those bones!

Scooter and Sassi....2 furrever.
She is on a calcium/vitamin D supplement of some sort but obviously needs more of something.

Well with bubble wrap when boredom sets in the popping begins, you can't get that with a padded room
