Official Squatch Watchers

For crying out loud! Aren’t you a retired NURSE?
You should understand about tissue regeneration and healing and swelling AND STUFF!

It was a SURGEON that did this work on your tender face, NOT A TATTERIN’ FAIRY GODMOTHER!
You know, it would not be this bad if i had not had an accident taking care of my chickens. I have no friends or relatives here to care for my animals. Should i let them starve? Winter is coming, should i let them freeze? My husband will not be doing my chores, he had torn ligaments and cartilage in his right wrist. He is out there daily chopping wood to keep us warm.
So it's not so simple to just stop doing stuff and watch tv. I thought friends were supportive. I didn't get this surgery done just to be pretty. I am old and fat, and have no vanity left.I need to be able to see.
I feel like you guys would feel some empathy if i were a chicken. I spent my life taking care of others. Now no one cares for me. I am so sad.
 
Happy, happy birthday PBM! :jumpy:wee:bun:clap:ya:woot

Great thing about canoeing in the fall - no bugs, fewer people and the leaf color.:highfive:

Thank you Bio...it was nice, except we had to keep up with the group and they were much more experienced canoers, so there was no time to sit and chill and take in the nature. And there were a LOT of obstructions! I much prefer canoeing with just DH.

But it was stlll nice, and a good workout. We did 8 miles and my shoulders are sore! I love that feeling. :)

Cappy,
I think you misunderstand. Folks DO care. That is why the strong cautions and trying to get you to take it easy.
Infection is a real risk.
Up til now you hadn't said you had no helper at all.

I haven't said much but I will offer this.

Move slower, watch your step and where your head is. If possible cover the incision with gauze or a soft bandage when you have to tend the birds.

No one wants you to get infected or busted open again.

It's just a few weeks of trying to force yourself to slow down some.
I get it, you must tend the critters. Just be careful doing so.
