SpeckledHen - Broken Ankle - DO NOT PM HER!!!

[ThreeBoysChicks]

Had to take a minute out of work today to check on you. So glad to hear that your surgery went well. Can't wait to see you back at BYC.

My wife had a very bad break 8 years ago. Going through that with her, I can sympathize with what you are dealing with. In a couple of days, the pain will get better.

Some advice - Do what the doctor says. If they say, no wait, then don't do wait. My wife did not listen the first time and ended up needing additional surgery.

Continued prayers for a quick and eventless recovery.

I just got off the phone with the lady herself. She will no longer be able to get through a metal detector, LOL. They put a plate with something like 5 screws in one bone, and a few more screws in another bone. She will have a check up with the ortho doc in about a week to check on healing progress.

The worst news? She's not allowd to be anywhere near a chicken for fear of infection. She's very down about that. She can, however, talk to them with her monitors...can you imagine their confusion?!

I'm so happy the surgery went well, and I really understand about the infection risk. Hope to see you soon!

My dear friend Cynthia - I'm so sorry to just now find this thread and hear about your ankle and surgery. I pray for a quick healing and pain relief.

I actually did a search for you because I thought I hadn't seen a post by you in a week and got worried. Then I found this thread. I haven't been on much myself since my goat gave birth last Monday and I've been busy with babies but I knew I missed your posts and knew something must be wrong. I was hoping you were just on vacation or something.

Take care of yourself - let others help you - take it easy. Catch up on reading or paperwork. Watch some old movies.
