Wednesday, September 24th, 2008



I don't like to brag about myself very often but I am a pretty amazing little girl if I do say so myself! Just a few days post surgery and I am back on track. Last night I slept just like I usually do - from about 8 pm to 6 am. I woke up happy and ready to play. I saw Lucille coming up the driveway this morning through the office window and I was so excited to see her - legs and arm (and cast) moving all around! My parents stayed close today to keep an eye on me but not to worry - I was back to my regular nap and play schedule. You would never know I just had surgery two days ago! My parents also needed to meet with Sherry from my nursing agency to go over my paperwork now that I am back home.

I was looking forward to Friday when I was supposed to get my cast off but Mommy got a call from Shriner's today. I guess they really want me to have my cast on closer to 6 weeks than 4 weeks - so my appointment has been rescheduled to October 6th. Bummer! At this point the cast really doesn't slow me down much so another week and a half with it on shouldn't be too bad I guess.

  1. I was hoping to see the new hand soon, but I guess we'll all have to wait a few more weeks!

    Glad that you're already back to normal, hopefully your routine rubs on to Jackson and he will resume his normal sleeping schedule!

    Love you!
