This case of a double negative means... sigh... while my orthopedic specialist who saw me yesterday said, "for a guy your age, you are healing well," he didn't authorize much change in my current condition. I still have that damn, heavy, lunky cast on my leg.
He did say that I can begin to put some weight on it, which means that perhaps mother-hubbard-partner will let me get out, even a little bit. He worries so much about me. I love him for that, but also will begin to put my (left) boot down and begin to assert myself in going out to some essential, critical community meetings provided a friend provides transportation.
I am doing okay, really. I have no pain at all. I am not sleeping well, but mostly it's because the cast wakes me up since I can't move while I am sleeping. If I turn, it twists my leg and just wakes me.
Oh well, so begins the three-week countdown.
528 hours
31,680 minutes
1,900,800 seconds
Life is short: three weeks sounds the shortest.
