Pain Has No Gain

Finally,  a light at the endof the tunnel of pain for D.  Since his fall, January 3, 2013, he has been in contant horrible  pain with a compression fracture of T-8.  After much messing about from the DR, he is finally scheduled for a CT scan to show the break better.  (1 X-ray and 2 MRIs later)  Surgery is scheduled for Friday.  He has missed 3 days of work so far.  Thank the Lord, the DR has him on bed rest NOW!

S. was in for a few hours on Saturday.  He left with his laundry clean and a full belly of Pizza, apple pie and bread sticks.  I think he is enjoying his job.

I have been walking on the Treadmill some.  My best time so far is 20 min. that equals 1/2 mile.

Beginnings and endings

Had a nice  visit with  S  a couple of days ago.  He is doing well and seems to really enjoy his job.

Today, we learned D's assigment will end March 15.  Don't know if he will be found another post or nor.  Disablity looms and that could be a blessing.
