Thank you for your comments about my first and hopefully last experiences with fractured bones. I met with the surgeon yesterday. From my research and meeting - I have the opinion he is more than competent. He said in about 3-4 weeks I can be back floating at the pool. Yay! The surgery is in the morning.

I must admit that I slipped today on the same thing that made me fall Friday. Instead of falling backward I fell frontward and caught myself on the same hand. There is a totally new area of pain. The wise thing to do would be to call his office and say hey, I think I broke another bone despite the hard, tight cast on there. I’m debating that option.

I hope everybody has a peaceful day.
