And how's the patient?
Thank you for asking. Though the patient is in a lot of pain and flat on her back kind of sick feeling. Can't do without the pain meds, but they sure are wierd.
Man, I feel your pain! Good luck with all the weeding!
The thing is that she is so much help! I rely on her garden labor, she grinds wheat, and generally pitches in.
Now she needs me to fix every meal and help her dress!
My mom lived with me for 5 weeks last summer after she broke her wrist and had 2 surgeries. I so hear you on needing help. Actually, we got it down to needing help driving places, cutting food and showering. Hopefully she'll need less help as she feels better.
