Very long story; I'll be messed up for a while, but lucky to be alive
Update:
Monday I had a doctor's appointment with the doctor that did my surgery. I was given permission to put full weight on my left leg and partial weight on my left arm. In physical therapy that afternoon they took away my wheelchair and gave me a walker. Now I'll fit in with the blue hairs at bingo if I ever decide to go. :D
Unfortunately, the wound on the back of my right leg is still bleeding. It wasn't obvious until Monday that I had a blood clot on the outside of my leg. Instead of it being stuck against my wound, it dangled about a 1\2" from my leg after the bandage was removed. The doctor cut it off and the bleeding has gone down, but still hasn't stopped as of yet.
I can only bend my right leg to 90% and only raise my left arm to 110% from my side right now. I'm schedule for out patient therapy when I'm released.
I'm scheduled to be released on Tuesday. I'm hoping to be off the walker by then, but my balance still isn't 100%. It will be great to be at home for Thanksgiving. I have a lot to be thankful for.
