I might not post to much for the next few days. Tonight on my way into my meeting I fell and broke my wrist. I have a temporary cast one and need to see my doctor as soon as they can get me in for it to be recast. I am in pain tonight,and typing with one hand. I will be reading the posts, but if I don't reply it isn't because I don't want to.
Take care and have a good week

Ahhhh Pam, I'm so sorry. Once the permanant cast is on in a few days you will feel much better, I'm sure. But i know how painful those first few days are. If the ortho doesn't get you in tomorrow, ask your primary to call in a favor...The sooner the better. I'll be thinking of you and sending prayers for comfort and healing. Gentel hugs.

Well, that just stinks!
I wish I could say something to make it feel better (like a nice codie) and I wish I could say something to make you feel better!

Being short on both I wish you well!

Oh Pam, sorry about your fall. Hope you'll be mending soon. Feel better.

Oh that stinks, well we'll be thinking of you everyday. I played sports my whole life, hence many a broken bone, if it hurt even after the cast is put on, elevate it, put a pillow behind your head and put your arm over your head and onto the pillow. It makes a world of difference. And by the way you type pretty darn good with just one hand! LOL

I highly recommend a $15 microphone that plugs into your computer. Windows 97 and above comes with a voice recognition software... it's under the language settings as I recall. I used it with good success after surgeries on EACH of my thumbs that had me in casts for 8 weeks each time. All you have to do is read a bunch of silly stuff into the microphone so the computer learns your voice etc.

See how codie I am? I want to run right in and take care of you.... It's selfish of me, but I always get so much insight from your posts that I don't want to miss out on PB&J wisdom!

Ok, I was going to suggest typing with your nose... but Cat's idea is far more useful.

Get well, soon!!


((hugs))

Pam, Sending my wishes for you to get better quickly. Don't feel badly about replying. There are days when all I do is read and it is okay. When I broke my kneecap last February, friends on here reminded me that maybe it was my HP telling me to slow down and breathe. Even though it was tough, I did and I actually enjoyed myself. (After the initial pain became tolerable, that is) Hugs, Marle

Thank you all for the replies. They made me smile through the pain. Went yesterday to have a new cast put on. Seems I cracked 3 bones in the wrist. When I got home Tues night, I said" God you have a great sense of humor, don't know why this happen but I know you have a reason. Pain pill, tyneol with codine helped me sleep last night.
Will post again in a few days, not easy typing one handed.
Hugs to all of you,have a good weekend
