Update on Brook

Tuesday I took Brook to the orthopedic doctor for x-rays. He was real pleased with the amount of bonding that the bones were doing. He gave her permission to remove her restraining sling and move her arm around. She still has to  wear it in crowds. She is still not able to do PE or Tae Kwon Do. He did say that as fast as it is healing this time that she may be back in January to do Tae Kwon Do. Brook is happy! She is glad to get out of her straight jacket sling. Poor baby has a raw armpit and the muscles are sore but she will heal. He did tell her she can move as much as she wants. he also told her if it hurts she is doing too much or it is too heavy. He told her no weights for now.
Happy Brook now!!!

  5. I'm back from my surgery; Cliff is baby-sitting me this evening.  I sure hope it works as well as the one on my left knee did 3 years ago.

  9. The weekend of selling trees sounded like fun...I know it is alot of work...but it seems that when people get their real tree the christmas spirit picks up...I cannot remember the last time I have been around a live tree and snow....tooooo many years ago.
    So glad that Brook is healing well...that is great news...I am sure she is relieved.
    Hopefully in Jan - she will be back going for that black belt test!!!
