Well... day 8 in the hospital...and tonight we get to bring her home.... finally.
The MD that was writing orders...is done.
Pain Management MD is doing all the writing, and I believe we have her on track. We have all the support adjunct's in place... home health, a walker, and the house almost set up for her comfort.
Her prognosis carries a certain risk, of not getting over this.... and with the Osteo...this can be re-occuring for the rest of her life.... I am worried about her, and the future is certainly....uncertain.
Everyones prayers are of most value, and I continue to pray that God gives her the strength to battle this, and will enable her to return to a normal quality of life.
I can tell you, that in a million year's I never saw this coming... . I thought that if it did, I had all the neccessary insurances if this happened.... hell I thought we were over insured....:dontknow: when her claim was denied (not significant enough of an injury).... I knew we would be running thin..... and could suck it up....but with this next chain of event's.... has led us down a road that I have never been before. Completely absurd that her surgery was 4month's ago this Sunday...and she is worse off.
We are overwhelmed (at least I am, I just tell Dawn everything is fine)... and with this ******* arm, I can't do any side work.
I just got back from the MD... shoulder looks fine, but I got at least 6 weeks of re-hab before I can get back to full duty... thank God I have sick time in my bank... so were not out of every dime.
The truck is on the chopping block, and as soon as Dad feels comfortable getting behind the wheel...will be tending to the remaining stuck lugnut on her...then she hit's the paper. Suck's, because I finally got all the remaining little extra mod's (gauges, shift light, a-pillar...ect) to get her done to my satisfaction.
Anybody want a 2004 with 12K on her, I believe I am going to start it off at 30K... whatcha all think? Too high? I can tell you this truck has only seen rain on three occasions... and those were at GTG's... she stay's in the garage the remaining time... so she s pretty clean.
:rock:
I don't expect too much in the way of offers now that gas is 3 bucks a gallon... but the old girl does get pretty good gas mileage.
I might have one of the guy's at work interested.. so we will see.
Dawn has been consistent with me about not selling it... but I see no immediate fix.... I can alway's get another..:dontknow: I hate to think about it.
Right now, I am concerned with Dawn, and her situation.... the truck get's put in the paper...when I get to it... in the middle of everything else I got going on...it will be a week or so.
Anyway... that's where were at... I get Dawn tonight from the hospital, and she can't wait to get out of there.... neither can I.
It will be an interesting weekend, I am glad Dad is here to help....I certainly the pain management schedule work's out, and we have an un-eventful, pain free weekend... (That's where the prayer's kick in
)
I can't thank everyone enough for the continued support, and I don't know what to say about the thread Mikey started... I am embarrased, feel like a failure, and hope that this does not change the way people view Ken/NBT on this forum. :dontknow:
Bone, I certainly hope I did not piss you off in the PM's you sent me.... not my intention... but I was really trying to handle this myself.
Your a hell of a good guy. Thank you.
Jack, Shawn, I know what you wanted me to say... not sure why I couldn't get it out.... probably for the multitude of feeling's that I am experiencing now...since the post from Mikey.
Thanks everyone from the bottom of our hearts. Word's could not describe the grattitude that we have been so fortunate to have from the member's here.... it is truly amazing.
Mod's... could there be a merging of these post's, so that I/ we do not take away from the forum.... this is a truck forum...and I feel like I am diverting attention, that should be geared twards getting someone the information they are seeking for their truck....... instead of listening to our problems.
No time to sulk about it... I have to get to the Hospital and get the rest of the MD instructions, and spend some time with Dawn.
Thank you,
The Liebich's
