I was unable to convince the doctor that I needed surgery before trying any other option, so my hand is now swollen to twice it’s normal size but for what is supposed to be a good reason. He put a needle into the base of my finger and pumped the muscle full of cortisone. I was upset that by last night it wasn’t all cleared up but my friend Dea looked it up and I need to give it up to a week to work. As the surgery wouldn’t have happened for another month and would have taken two weeks for recovery I guess I’m just as happy…
I don’t know how present I’ll be on the blog but I’m not forgetting my sisters here. I just fell behind for a while. (If you think I’m behind here you should see me catching up at work!)
And I have a couple of old pairs of glasses to donate to ‘Blood Ties Fans Recycle For Sight’ as soon as I find where and how to send them. (I’m catching up on that one, too.) Being as painfully nearsighted as I am, I find it easy to pledge to support this campaign. (It’s one of the reasons I was drawn to Vicki as a character in the books, too.)
And so, here we go, blog away, mah sistahs! I will join you as time permits.
