Hi Dawn- I too have been reading this thread since your accident. My heart goes out to you. For now, just let your body heal- that's what it wants/needs to do. I'm happy to hear that you can get out of bed even if it is just for a short time.

Wheelchair- 45 seconds..I'm totally impresssed!

The pets are such great companions- they know when we are not well. They are so amazing.

Look forward to hearing about your progress as you go along. Glad to hear your staples are out and that you can take showers/sponge baths. When I was home from surgery last winter I remember how nice it felt to have warm water streaming over my body. So therapeutic.

What's the next surgery going to fix/mend? Do you know when it will be?

Keep up the good work. You are an inspiration!
