I suppose she is well out of it by now...sound asleep, I hope, feeling no pain. Thinking of you, Mortee.

I've just heard from Micca. It has been done, that's about all he knows at this point. She was still in recovery when he spoke to whomever (I think he said it was her at about 730p?) Apparently, it was done sometime in the afternoon. So at least that big part is done!

She had the op late this afternoon. So late that they're keeping her in overnight but they expect to discharge her sometime tomorrow. I've just got back from the hospital and, despite being connected to about a dozen tubes and hoses, she's amazingly chirpy - but I think that has something to do with that handy little morphine button she keeps playing with.

Just now reading this thread.

Morti, don't laugh if it hurts, but until I just noticed the addition of "She's Home" I thought this was a thread about a fingers and body parts crossword puzzle! Talk about misread threads!

Glad you are home and being well cared for. May your healing be swift and sweet!

massive scar, a good 6 inches long, i'd say, wish i could show you all, showing off scars is the best bit!

all held together with little plastic strips which i've never seen before with proper stitches underneath those. anyone know if i can take the plastic ones off?

Don't know but if you want to enhance the effect, tattoo a zipper over your scar.

That's what I told the surgeon I was going to do, but it's still way too tender. He didn't forget, though. The last time I saw him, a couple of months after surgery, he reminded me that I could now get that zipper tattoo!

Mortee, I had staples...no plastic strips. :-)

i mentioned to my doctor that i thought perhaps i could take them off-she was fairly clear that was not so good an idea-now i am being good.

if I remember correctly, the plastic strips on my 12" scar fell off when they were ready to fall off - maybe the glue lasts as long as needed to cover the stitches?

or summat like that

Do you suppose you could all fire up again, please? Hospital today see no sign of bone forming as yet. Now 6 weeks along,that isn't the end of the world but it is a mite discouraging, so some Mudcat ju-ju might just help things along a bit.Otherwise it's Cletus and the MiG and no-one wants that.

That is a nuisance, Mortie. Calcium supplements maybe? But I bet your doctors have taken care of that.

What about some comfrey/boneknit tea or homoeopathic drops? And, maybe there is an acupuncturist who would know how to stimulate the bones?

Regardless, I am giving thanks for a complete and immediate healing, this or something better for the highest good of all concerned. So mote it be!

Lots of {{{{Gentle HUGS}}}}} and love,

Whatever they try to use to help Morti was probably originally tested on laboratory rats or mice to insure success on the rodent to recovery from broken bones, Gnaws-ya from the chewed ones and pulled Hamstering Muscles and the like.

Somewhere they should erect a Tomb Of The Unknown Rat for those that actually died in the name of good.
