Once again I have been given the opportunity to know who I am. Last Friday night I had an accident and fractured my R patella. Ouch you might be thinking and rightly so. Pain is one of my constant companions right now.
With a stiff upper lip I managed to get through the surgery on Saturday morning and then rested most of the day. I arrived home on Sunday evening and since that time I have been testing out pillows, positions, pain medications and various other methods to try and keep comfortable. I am thinking I need to round up a recliner for a few months. That would make getting up and down easier.
I will be on the search tomorrow on Craig's list.
Going up and down stairs is manageable but only once up at night for bed and once down in the morning for daily life. I am also able to sit at my desk and on the couch.
Today was day 4. I am glad it is time for bed. It was a long day.
