I had my surgery almost two weeks ago and aside from the first day after the surgery things have been pretty good considering I only have one working leg. The day after surgery as all the nurses warned me was the worst. They had to dope me with morphine several times so by the time I got shoved home by the totally bossy day nurse I was pretty well out of it.
But my mom came to stay the weekend with me since hubby had to work and that was pretty nice. The bad parts came later when my husband's relatives descended. Ever live in a house with three men and you are unable to cook, clean or organize? Talk about hell.
The horses are good though, fat, lazy, well behaved. The Spotted Beast goes off to the professional trainer in September. I was on the fence about sending him but now I don't have two legs to stand on so off he goes to a really great guy in western virginia.
As for the High Queen. My trainer T. is going to hopefully start coming out once a week starting in July when I'm a little more mobile and ride her.
I have a check-up appointment tomorrow to get the stitches from my surgery out and possibly a permanent cast rather than the soft cast/splint I've been wearing for over three weeks. And then the long, long wait. I thought I'd be doing physical therapy at the end of this month, but it was not to be. One of my breaks was so bad the surgery took twice as long and so will the healing time.
Anyway keep it between the flags!
