Granny's gone and done it again

[Granny Hatchet]

I think home nursing because I noticed him really working at that spot the last 2 week but thought he was removing adhesive

Google nursing home and bedsores whenever you have time.

Yes, my knee snapped back on Feb. 28 and I've been told to stay off it since then. So I've been pretty much either in my recliner or in the wheelchair since then. My PT told me I've been using the walker all wrong and taught me the right way, but I haven't used it much at all.

Yeah I bet that does hurt! Be careful! Don't scoot. Get lined up and then roll over, if you can. Bet you are glad to be back in your bed! I'll be happy when I can go down the stairs and get in mine.

Ouch! So many people with so much pain

I've been wetting it with saline cause I'm not sure what else. But at the hospital they said to really flush out the wound in the shower, long showers. Maybe that helps ulcers too?

Can your bed come to you? None of us are getting younger and some day those stairs are going to be off limits. Is there a bedroom on the main floor?

I've been graduated, though, so good news! I'm now allowed to touch the toe of my right foot to the ground!
And in other news, (did I tell this already?) I got some step-in shoes. They're really comfy. I ambulate around the house in the wheelchair in an unusual way. I use one of my canes as a "rower" and push with my left foot. It's easier and much faster and more efficient than trying to spin the stupid wheels.

There are three bedrooms up here. One is quite small. The kids are using the other two. So, until they move out, ..... no.

Nice warm shower then let the air hit it for a while.

The stairway to the basement is nice and wide. Perfect for an Acorn stair lift!

put the boy in the basement. Knock the wall out between the small bedroom and the other and have yourself a nice big room orrr.... get yourself a twin and take the small room for yourself.

You're so generous with my husband's money, lol! Actually I like that one suggestion of combining those two rooms, it would be the largest plus the smallest, making it practically a suite.
