Just a quick note to let ya’ll know that my hubby Carl is having rotator cuff surgery on his left shoulder tomorrow morning (Thursday). We have to go very early to the hospital as surgery is at 7:30 a.m. seeing as how it’s outpatient we should be home by the afternoon.
He had the right shoulder operated on in 2004 so we know pretty much what to expect…his surgeon is excellent, same one as in 2004 and Dr. O’Connell also did my rotator cuff surgery that same year. He is an expert in shoulders, a shoulder man as we like to say! Carl can expect to be in a sling for about 8 weeks so whatever honey doo projects are not done now will not get done until spring! But the Christmas tree is up and decorated, the lights and decor outside looking very Christmas-y, so we are good.
Anyway, prayers and good wishes for a successful surgery and an easy recovery for my wonderful husband..I will post in a day or so and let ya’ll know how he is managing!

ReplyDeleteI just now went online. Do you think the yard work did more injury to his shoulder? I'm sorry he had to go through this again. Give him our best wishes!
ReplyDeleteDeb, it doesn't help.. you know how these guys are..nuts. I tell you the man is in so much pain tonight he is delirious, worse surgery yet..no more..hopefully tomorrow will be a bit better because I am so tired and need to sleep and that is what I am going to try to do right now! hugs:))

I just talked to Carl...he sounds miserable! My heart goes out to him! The nerve block in his neck makes him sound like he's paralized and groggy. Wish I were there to help.
