Today marks 6 weeks post-op, which theoretically is the halfway mark of my rehab.
I notice an ongoing improvement,
though slow and with knowledge that my left arm stays in a sling most of the time.
The pain seems to get better, yet there are still times it catches me off guard.
I started to take the sling off during the evening, which gives me some sense of normalcy.
When moving my left arm actively, some interesting sound effects are displayed!
My next follow-up appointment will be on Thursday, February 4th.
I feel blessed having been able to work during the last 3 weeks.
My schedule is gradually ramping up to about 70% of my normal work load,
which is all I can handle right now.
I am happy to bring in an additional physical therapist in my clinic starting this coming Monday.
It looks like this will be a win-win for all involved.
Just getting everything lined up has made for 'blowing and going',
but it seems most everything is falling in place!
This weekend will be a fun filled weekend, with a visit from Monroe, LA.
Randa, Trevor and Brintley will be staying with us through Sunday.
Supposedly Brintley's new words are OH-OH....
Needless to say she gets a kick out of dropping stuff, looking down and saying "oh-oh",
to which everybody around her will start cracking up... and I'll be getting the mop and bucket!
