i'm not having a good recovery this week which is why i haven't been on the board this week.
i did have a good report on my lung on monday, but wed morning i fell in my bathroom and hit my right arm on the side of the jacuzzi tub and broke my right arm (tibia i think) when they x-rayed it,they found that i had chipped my wrist in the bike wreck also. so now i have my right arm in a cast.
this feels like a huge setback when i was just getting comfortable with the broken rib pain. i'm dealing with a tremendous amount of depression.
don't mean to be a downer, so sorry. can't type with the right arm either so this is taking forever.
the good thing isthat hubby is home for the weekend and taking wonderful care of me.
Well, first off... NO MORE TYPING FOR YOU! You need to rest and with your arm in a cast... no typing.
*Hugs*
It sounds like you have had a setback... and it makes sense why you are depressed about it. Thank goodness they found that chip in your wrist though.
Hey, it's OK to be a little down. Give yourself some time to lay in bed, sleep, and feel blah... then... you can focus on being more positive and not being depressed anymore.
I know for me, if I give myself x amount of time to be depressed... it works. Then, I also know when I have to get myself back together.
Take care... only let your hubby type... and it's OK to feel down.
