Update on Joe S.

[Joe S.]

I should be leaving transitional care on May 31. I am working with crutches. Our house is not Handicap Assessable. The AC is out at home so I will be using all the fans to stay cool.

When I saw the doctor, he said that I was very lucky because my bones were growing back together. He said that most breaks this bad selcom heal. I have two more months of recovery at home.

Joe,

Good news that you will get to go home in a few days.   

I hope the AC at home is fixed soon so that it will be more comfortable for you as you continue your rehab in the comforts of your own home.

Don't overdo things and I wish you a speedy recovery.

Glad to hear you are going home soon Joe...I always think you do better at home in your own environment...your own bed, etc.

Keep us posted on how you are doing....hope you get that AC fixed soon....the summer is upon us and its going to be a hot one I fear!

I am glad you get to be back home. I always preferred being home, but sometimes we need the other help.

I do hope you get the air conditioning fixed, because it is so hot. Ours went out one day, but we were able to get it fixed for a cheap price, because he is a family member.

Everyone has missed all of your posts. Get better soon. I said a prayer for you.

Joe, It is so good to hear that you will be coming home. I wish that you could find someone that you know who could come in and check out the airconditioning. Sounds like it is going to be a hot summer again.

Try wetting a wash cloth with cold water and fold it the long way. Place it around the back of your neck. It really helps to cool the brain off and when the brain is cool your body feels cooler. Turn the cloth over when it gets warm and also rewet it every so often. Good luck with your leg now. This has been a very eventful( I used a nice word lol) year for you and your wife. Irish

[Joe S.]

Thank you for all of your kind words.
