Discovered they wanted him to sleep in a recliner which is fine but sure wish they has told us that before as he could have help rearrange the living room furniture. Luckily Jen was able to do a quick drive by after school and help push and shove things around for us. Still hot as hell here and I am now sitting down with my feet up. He is up at the table doing exercises and I have medicated him for the first time. They gave him a block and it is slowly wearing off. Tell all on ASA I will check in later but tell them for me he seems fine. :) Duckie . . . . Donna . . . . 1.)

My DIL stayed at my house with me and she kept feeding me pain pills so I slept most of the time for a few days!

I am exhausted but still living. rofl... He is doing better and is managing to spread his pain meds half hour further apart which is good. Saw the doctor today and he removed the outter banadages. He is now down to a few pieces of gauze and stitches. The good news is that the doctor was able to do the whole thing arthospoc.... [you spell that word] so that there are only a couple tiny holes. Got the pics today as well, and the rotator cuff was torn nearly completely --can't imagine how he was using the arm at all. Dr. showed us the bone spurs which were to blaim probably for sawing the tendon in half and those are now gone.And he also did something called a mumford?? procedure which has something to do with the collar bone. All is healing nicely. I could not have done this without Home Instead helping me. They are coming everyday for about three hours and doing laundry, trash, dishwasher, changing beds, and loads of the like. The best thing is that they are helping carry in the ice and any groceries I get everyday. Going to work tomorrow and they will be here feeding him and handling his ice. Anyway, what I need most is sleep which I am missing due to getting up around 3 am to give him a pill and tweek his ice. Four hours later I am up and doing it again. Tell the crowd, I am hanging in there. Duckie . . . "Donna G." wrote: Checking in to see how John is doing since his surgery?
