The lady in red.
This afternoon’s trip to the Orthopedic Surgeon felt like a field trip. The weather was beautiful and mom and I were escorted in the Delmar Gardens bus with an entertaining driver and a wheelchair lift. This meant I didn’t have to drive and mom never had to be transferred from her wheelchair. Now that the visit is behind us I am hoping the necessity of her wheelchair will soon be “History” The doctor confirmed that she had sprained her ankle several weeks ago and wants her to start bearing weight on her foot immediately — as tolerated. Mom has not had any pain in the last four or five days and I won’t be surprised if she starts to leap tall buildings. During the return trip I reviewed what the doctor had prescribed for her and she said “Maybe I can start to be normal now” Perhaps I can get a dose of that too.
