August 23/11 I went out to get a few groceries and ended up in Concordia Hospital Emergency
Was walking along the sidewalk and a car jumped the curb and ran me into a steel staircase and then a brick wall ---
I received stitches in the crown of my head and a broken wrist and hand
August 26 -- I went into surgery to repair my wrist and hand now resembled a hockey stick
-my wrist has a plate and 10 screws and the heel of my hand has 2 titanium rods !!
It has been a long haul with recovery and therapy
My therapist started using stitching and knitting as a form of therapy way back in November ! progress was slow but along with weight and the usual therapy for that kind of fractures I am back to 85%
My surgeon says that is unheard of for a person my age to come that far in less than 5 months !!
I am happy I have made such good strides and am knitting and stitching although slow I can do it
Here are some frilly scarves I have done with that new yarn
