Saw the Ortho Doctor today

Post by Carol Arnett »

Hi everyone,

I went back for my 2 week check-up after having my cast removed. He had planned for me to go back to work tomorrow but when he saw how much pain there was and how little range of motion I had, he decided to keep me off work another month. I have been off on unpaid disability since Jan 13. I keep this up and I won`t get in a quarter of the year. At least while I am on disability my job AND my insurance are protected.

Harry is doing a little better each day. I think he still thinks he should be able to run a marathon but the doctor thinks it will probably be 6 months before he feels like he did pre-op. Got a statement today from the Clinic for $158,000 and I am sure there will be more to come. I knew it would be a lot.

Everyone take care and have a good night or day tomorrow. Love, Carol
