Hi All,
As many of you know, David had surgery yesterday to clean up a torn meniscus. While he was gone to Morris & Essex, he slipped a few times in the rain and did more damage. Not enough to warrant a different type of surgery, yet anyway. The good 24 hour pain drugs they gave him in the hospital have worn off and even though he took the prescribed overlap of oral pain medication, he is a hurting unit today. Not too whiny about it though. We had a busy day with one of our dogs who was not feeling well and he put himself on the back burner, and put her first. Even though he wasn't driving, Dave still wanted to be with us for support. All is well on that front too.
After his surgery, we went to a hotel, so that he would not have to deal with any stairs. Unavoidable at our house and he really needs to rest for a few more days. Sleeping on the couch in the family room or formal living room will not cut it, nor will climbing onto the bunk in the motorhom. We will probably be home tomorrow, but are hoping to be able to keep the room another night. At this point, the hotel is full but we have our fingers crossed.
Thank you to everyone for their prayers and good wishes.
Hugs all around.
Darlene
