I'm going to my department Christmas lunch today -- do I tell them now I won't be back on the 5th or wait?
Dr has set my back to work date tentatively for 1/12. Personally I think 2/1 sounds better.....

I would wait. No need to discuss business at the party.
If someone asks, just deflect and say you need to talk to your doctor about the specifics and will get back to them.Sarah

Wait
1. It's a PARTY. Enjoy yourself. Show off your scar and bolts!
2. You really don't know when you'll be back. Just wait until your favorite PT person gets their hands on you.Beth

Bruno, if she stood near magnets, that would be a highlight of the party!

Lunch was nice. "Oh, you look so rested! Do you miss us?" Uh....no, sorry I don't... I told my minion I wouldn't be back the 5th, but he should start planning his vacation for February. If it wasn't for him I don't think I'd go back at all.
One guy started telling me how he too had a little bit of a neck ache...I showed him a picture of my xray. His eyes got big, "Oh, I guess it's not the same thing!" No chit sherlock!

You brought your xray picture along? Nice touch.
