Thank you all for your wonderful good wishes. At this point I can’t e-mail you all from bed, so please accept this blanket thanks for now. Blanket, bed, a drug induced pun!
It was a good experience due to the spinal. I got brave and watched the screen for the first hour and a quarter, but asked for drugs and the curtain before the screws went in. I don’t remember most of the last 20 minutes.
It hardly seems right that there are so many really sick people with serious problems in the hospital and I’m taking up space with something so mundane as a knee graft. And three cheers for the Canadian medical system, despite my prior comments, I hobbled out of there at the end of the day without having to pay one cent.
Chuck says to tell you that I can even turn a hospital experience into a knitting experience. To nurse Maureen, how’s that sweater working out? Chuck’s only concern right now is that he knows that the drugs will wear off.
Here is part of my welcome home committee: that’s Betty, from Germany, working on one of her two projects.
