The good news for yesterday is that I had no break through pain during my 6 hours between medication doses! I went about 7 hours without any pain meds. I also took just half a pill at the 7 hour mark. So THAT is AWESOME!
Some more good news is a new friend, former board member at BCAP and volunteer there saw my request for help on Facebook. She has offered to come every Wednesday morning for a couple of hours to take care of me till I am back up on my feet. This type of generosity and help blows me away. Then, Alon and I contemplated how so many nice people lately make us (mostly me) cry. More AWESOMENESS.
This morning the Oz-meister, our kitty, Ozymandius, Ozy for short, alias KITTY... decided she would try out my Constant Passive Movement (CPM) machine while I jaunted off to the bathroom at 6am. When I hobbled back, this is what I found... of course the machine was off, otherwise she would not have been so brave...
1. Curled up like a little ball, like this hunk of medical machinery with a soft faux sheerling liner was made for her... Excuse ME!
2. Getting experimental. Ozy attemps to find a more comfortable position, poking her head through a hole, laying her soft white belly across the fuzzy liner... Success.
3. Close up. Ozy resting her face on the hard plastic base of the CPM. She has SUCH a hard time getting comfortable. Who needs vicodin or valium? I want what she's got!
That's pretty much been my morning so far. Other than excruciating foot pain, which does not seem to want to go away. Deb, my beloved Physical Therapist, should be here soon. We shall discuss the foot then. Love to you all! Thanks for checking out my blog.
She is a total goof ball. At least it means she isn't afraid of the machine any longer :)
