Wednesday/Thursday, July 6/7
Good Morning,
Today we heard from Bryan. Dad went with them to the doctor's. He got to see the ultrasound of the twins. I can't wait to hear his thoughts on that. Such a change from the days when he wasn't allowed in the delivery room as poor Mom popped out 7 of us!!
Dang, I have a broken toe. Molly took me to the doctors on Monday, but when he told us I needed an X-ray, it was too late in the day to get one. We went yesterday, only to find that it was already closed for the day. Finally this morning we got in and the technician said, "Broken."
She sent us to another doctor who looked at the X-ray and agreed with the technician. She said (and we already knew) that all that can be done is to tape it to another toe and wait 6-8 weeks for it to heal. She told me to elevate it, walk as little as possible, and go for drugs if it still hurt. I will do my best on the first two, especially since I have a 10 day trip to Korea after I get back from this trip.
I'm thinking I might get pads to line the legs of the tables and chairs in my house. The thought of ramming this toe again . . . simply makes me cringe. It does hurt. I am limping. Good thing I have all the notes to type up from the trip. :))
No pictures.
