How the hell are ya Beckums? 😀
June 10, 2009 at 2:55 am #768015Rod and the boys shipped me to mum and dad’s for a couple of weeks for some recuperation time… Let me tell you, though, cold turkey is a hard, hard thing to deal with. The stupid foot doesn’t look too bad considering the fact that I literally pulled out all the sutures 4 days after surgery… In the middle of that (me sitting on the floor in the family room with a pair of pliers and the deep suture line literally wrapped around them several times and pulling it for all I was worth and it hurting like a big dog) part of my head KNEW I shouldn’t be doing that but there was no way to stop 😮 (and y’all thought I was crazy before) Talked with ’em last night for tuck-ins and the boys wanted to know what my favorite part of the new Star Trek film was. I didn’t know what they were talking about and swore on a stack of bibles that we hadn’t seen that one yet; at least I hadn’t… Apparently I had but I can’t remember a darn thing about it. Things are getting better but it’s slow going… sorry to be AWOL so long

I missed that, for some reason… I hope you feel 100% soon.
And now your boys will have a great excuse to go back to the movies to see Star Trek again. 😀

The hardest part is dealing with the pain which is constant and unending. “Hurt” is such an inadequate word… The anxiety is getting better but there are still lots of times when I want to be left alone but need to be with people; being by myself isn’t always such a good idea…

June 11, 2009 at 2:32 am #768019Being by yourself can be terrible; just you and your thoughts, and those aren’t always pretty. You picked your sutures out? Whoa. Glad to hear from you, please rest and let people dote on you so you can heal!
June 11, 2009 at 3:18 pm #768020Thankies! I YANKED out my sutures, tho’ I only have a very dim memory of doing so… When the pattern on the oriental carpet kept trying to climb up the walls Rod called my surgeon. There’ve been lots of tears, anxiety and panic attacks – and I’ve def. decided that I don’t like hallucinations at all 😮 Who knew that this recovery would be any different from any others I’ve done? This one’s been a nightmare… Thanks for all your support guys – it’s very much appreciated!

June 12, 2009 at 3:32 pm #768022I had surgery on my foot to remove the plate and screws and ‘remodel’ bone and old scar tissue, put the big toe joint back in alignment with the metatarsal bone so it would work properly. I had a horrible reaction to the meds they gave me… I wake up in the middle of surgery ’cause I metabolize stuff so quickly – between that and trying to get some effective pain control I get a real wallop of drugs. Add to that almost 3 years worth of painkillers and, well you get the pic… It wasn’t any different from any other time I’ve had to do this except that my body decided it didn’t like what was happening. Weird drug interactions will do that I guess. So I ‘cold turkey-ed’ everything I was taking and had a melt down in the process… Not pretty at all – and it was no ones fault; my body just said “enough”. I’m about 4 weeks out from the surgery, my head is much clearer but I still deal with some heavy duty, teeth clenching pain. Nothing over the counter touches it and I won’t take any prescription stuff – I just try to grin and bear it! 😈 😀

June 13, 2009 at 3:27 am #768024Home for the week-end and my b-day then back to Utah while Rod and the boys are at scout camp… I’m starting to feel like a football being handed off or a package that’s been lost in the mail 😈
