Hobbit update When to the leg doctor today..
I saw the x rays {finally} I didn't realize the damage I had, basically everything from my knee to my ankle is metal..
Metal plates top and bottom with a large metal rod connecting everything the bones are there in pieces, but healing in several places, as the surgeon said he put back together what he could..
A large number of screws from top to bottom connecting everything. As he stated I had massive injuries not just to my leg..
He also helped me with getting the neurosurgeon name and ordered a follow up for this..The spinal injury is the one issue causing me the most concern..With the surgeon's help today on this there will be a follow up now .
I am healing very well , better then expected on my leg..The surgeon was very pleased, we hobbits tend to heal quickly, A blessing from Our Lord..Thanks be to God..
I am Very Grateful to finally see a doctor, and get some help on other issues too..
I am Grateful to finally have some news, until now I have not seen a doctor, since I left the hospital many weeks ago and came to this terrible place..I have copies of all his orders and can push to see this is done..
Jeez, don't you have a call button ? Ring and tell them! Don't just suffer in silence, you know when you should get your meds!I feel terrible today......Damn..Have not felt this bad in many weeks..Didn't help I din't get any of my meds on time. Have a new nurse, and she didn't know I had been moved fro 315 to 307 room.
So she took it for granted I wasn't here.WOW!! Still they have not changed this here to let the new nurses know what room I am in, Wecome to hell another lost soul no one can find..
Hobbit News:
I have some Good news I have Medicade, seems I ha had this for weeks..I am awaiting a level of care need from the Area council of the aging.. number is all.Another level of Red tape..Not sure what this is about. Within a week I shall Be moved to another rehab facility..Where I will get the rehab I need..
Finally some good news..Was up most of the night pain level too great to sleep..Great pain in my arms so typing is very hard.
Thanks be to God, I will be moved from this place soon..I am very grateful to hear this..Finally to get better care and perhaps even see a doctor finally..WOW!!
I now have a room mate, a heroin addict, over half the people here are court ordered drug addicts..This shall be interesting, my lawyer was here asking questions and I think that they have decided to make my stay here even more interesting.. Normally they keep the addicts separated from those who are here for other reasons..I asked for a private room and was turned down, no reason given.. But since my lawyer was asking questions I have noticed a change in my treatment from some here.I was told today all rehab treatment for me has been canceled for at least the next two days..Because of the Blood clot issues, this has been a on/off thing for weeks and still no ultra sound to be sure has been ordered.. If I survive this place I am sure I can survive anything.
I may have someone to be my caregiver One of my surrogate daughters is back.. Nay Nay my sister is very pleased also.
Theresa Stamper, will be there for me when I am released in a month. It is wild, I once cared for Her when needed and now 15 years later I guess the tables have turned Last December she took me to a concert in Columbus, and we had a wonderful time now she can help me recover and have a safe place for her again..I guess finally I have someone who I have helped to help me ..WOW!!
I GOT TO SEE MY BABY!!!!!
Big Tim picked Her up today from the Harley shop for me and brought Her to me!!!
It was wonderful!!! And Scooterbike will run again!!
The damage isn't something that I can't fix, not a problem!!
The frame isn't damaged and the damage on Her is just items that can be replaced without a problem..
It truly made my day Heck made my year..
With some TLC and a few trips to swap meets I can do this.
I gave her the once over, and found my blood on the front cylinder that hit me hard..
But at least Scooterbike did save me, now I will save Her..
Thanks be to GOD!! Hobbit and Scooterbike reunited
They moved the heroin addict out of my room today..He caused a big uproar yesterday so they moved him to a room where they can keep a eye om him.. Normally those folks aren't mixed in the physically injured patients rooms..So a Hobbit can now rest at night again somewhat anyway..
