He gathered up some items that needed to go to the post office....and then he just up and took 'em! Even though we had talked about him not driving for a bit longer, he got in his big honkin' truck and drove to the post office. The stinker...
The one-armed wonder - in Wranglers and boots for the first time - 9 days after surgery |
I don't know whether to hide his keys tomorrow......or let him get out of the house and terrorize the streets with his good (or should I say dominant?) arm strapped to his body in a super-sling!
I guess we will just have to chalk this up to "healing". Each day is a bit better. His therapist is able to stretch his shoulder and arm a little farther at each P/T session. He is now showering, dressing and shaving all by himself. He wrote some "thank you" notes to friends with his left hand and they were incredibly legible. He has even been doing a little cooking in the kitchen, with my help around fire, hot water and knives.
Before you know it, he won't even NEED me!!! I'm feeling a bit like a momma bird whose baby is about to spread its wings and fly.....
And I couldn't be more proud of his progress!
Hats off to my Prince....

Just goes to show that you can't keep a good man down!
