This is a very quick post to let you know that I have had my op and it appears at the moment to have been a success - I now have full movement in my neck despite a 4in scar, I have got the feeling back in my two numb fingers and I havew cut my Tramadol down from 8 per day to 1 when required!! It will be a couple of weeks before I can craft again and 6-8 weeks before I can use my arms normally. I have to see the nuerosurgeon in 7 weeks time so should get the all clear then.
At the mo, my Mam is down from Scotland helping with all the chores, cooking, shopping etc but I think she will be going home soon and we will have to cope without her - Graham has looked out the travel kettle for me and he and Lyne will have chores/shopping etc to do after work.
Thanks to you all for enquiring and your lovely cards etc - much appreciated!!
I may manage on to do some browsing and/or commenting over the next few weeks but I really miss crafting and am itching to get my cardstock out to play again. Patience is not one of my hobbies!!
Take care all of you and I will be back very soon hopefully.
