"LEFTY"

OUT OF ALL THE EXTREME THINGS THAT I HAVE DONE OVER THE PAST TWO YEARS, I HAVE LUCKILY NEVER ONCED INJURED MYSELF. SO WHO WOULD HAVE GUESSED THAT I WOULD SIT ON MY NEPHEW'S SLIDE, FALL, AND BREAK MY HAND. THAT'S RIGHT, I BROKE MY HAND...MY RIGHT HAND. I NOW BASICALLY HAVE NO FUNCTION OF MY RIGHT HAND. SAY SOME PRAYERS FOR ME THAT WHEN I RETURN TO THE DOCTOR IN TWO WEEKS THAT HE WON'T SAY THAT I NEED TO HAVE SURGERY. I AM SLOWLY LEARNING TO BE PATIENT WITH MYSELF AND I AM LAUGHING AT MYSELF, A LOT! WHAT ELSE CAN I DO? GOOD THING I WORK WITH OCCUPATIONAL THERAPIST. I WOULD LOVE SOME POINTERS FOR AN EASY WAY TO FASTEN A BRA, AMONG OTHER THINGS! HA!

MY TIME OFF FLEW BY SO QUICKLY. I FINALLY ARRIVED IN ROCKY MOUNT, NC ON SATURDAY NIGHT AFTER A LONG DAY OF DRIVING. IT SURE DID BEAT 5 OR 6 DAYS OF DRIVING. I ENJOYED MY TIME WITH MY FAMILY AND FRIENDS AND WISH THAT I HAD LONGER. I MISS EVERYONE ALREADY AND CAN'T WAIT TO GO HOME FOR CHRISTMAS. I HOPE YOU WILL ALL PARDON ME FOR BEING BRIEF. THERE IS SO MUCH THAT I WANTED TO SHARE. HOWEVER, PECKING IT OUT WITH ONLY MY LEFT HAND IS ANNOYING. HOPE YOU HAVE HAD AND WILL CONTINUE TO HAVE A WONDERFUL HOLIDAY SEASON.
