HOSPITAL DAY

Today was `change of dressing` day.  I really thought I`d be free of the dressing altogether.   How wrong I was.  Not only has it been re-dressed ( albeit with a smaller bandage) but I`ve been ordered to rest it more often as I appear to have been doing too much.  They are right of course, but I have been very careful. I have now been told that I can only use my hand to do up buttons or zips, NOTHING else at all. I mustn`t even lift a plate !  I did ask if could start driving again and was told that my insurance company wouldn`t cover me at the moment.  So I`m stuck at home unless Jim is here to take me out.  In a week`s time I will be having physiotherapy on my arm but until then it`s rest which I am not at all good at.  This also means that I have to carry on typing with one hand though I have to say I`m quite good at it now.  Nothing will keep me from my computer and the journals !  Well for the time being that`s it.  Good night all and take care.
