OK, I just gotta know......you are face down on a massage bed/table/whatever anyhoo…..you face is in a hole so you can breathe. Last time I checked, breathing was pretty popular, so keep doing that. I sure don't want you to miss out of the Thanksgiving festivities, I know that y'all have postponed the @CntryBoy777 perfectly prepared turkey :hitdue to the circumstances that might make sitting up for the party a DUMB thing to do. So I wuz thankin' maybe Leon could scoot over to the local Fried Chicken Lickin' place and get a bucket of chicken. Then he could hand you a drumstick under the face-plant and you could gnaw on it whilst obeying Doctor's orders. :thumbsup

Day two ...bring it on ! ...BTW, for thoes with goats who rush to the gate when they see y o u comming....a gently wide swinging cane is working wonders...
HUH????? Does this mean that the person who is supposed to be face-planted on a massage table is wandering around the goat pens swinging a cane? :th

Please tell me I interpreted that sentence incorrectly or I'm gonna sic @Baymule on you! :lol:

DH says that decent vision takes a while. He could barely see fingers in front of his face for a couple of weeks afterwards.

I think she was swinging it when she came home and wanted to go through the gate????? At least, that is how I am going to interpret it and give her the benefit of a doubt that she was not doing something she was not supposed to be doing.


Ummmm I have met Barb so I wouldn't bet on it. I'm guessing she was walking with her head down and using the cane to keep the critters out of her way. :)

The cane lol, slowly moved from side to side is teaching the goats not to crowd, jump, or trip me as they have in the past.....every moment is a learning moment, this one is working very nicely. ..lol

I sure hope it is clearer by tuesday morning, I need to drive leon back from his hand surgury ....

I told DH that and he said "Tell her that's what Uber is for!" Eight days post-op? ARGH!!! DH wasn't ready to drive by then.

Sorry if I'm sounding bossy, lol. (it's kinda my nature) But, it's coming from a place of care. Really want the best outcome for you!

You can't drive on Tuesday!!! That will require you to lift your face up and that is a big NO NO NO! Find SOMEBODY to drive y'all! This is your ONE SHOT to fix your eye, don't efff it up. If you have to cancel his surgery, then do it. Your eye is more important than his hand at this point. You DON'T want to be some blind old lady sitting on a bench in a nursing home, DO YOU?

Grab some homeless guy off the street, but DON'T DRIVE ON TUESDAY!

I've spent the last week screaming at my resident bone head over him wanting to do everything, you called in the middle of one of my melt downs and scared the crap out of him. He was somewhat better after that, but then stood around, whining, complaining, feeling sorry for himself. I was glad to send him to the house while I tossed hay out of the back of the mule. (dust and hay particles are not good for the new eyeball) Doctor turned him loose yesterday, we do it again on Monday.

Keeping with the thread you posted above about telling BJ to quit his belly aching and do what he is supposed to.......YOU NEED TO HEED YOUR OWN ADVICE and DO NOT DRIVE. If you have to put off Leon's surgery, surely the doctors office will understand. For Pete's sake, @Baymule is right. YOU CANNOT DRIVE.

Maybe Fred and Joyce could help out? I realize it is an hour away, but for the love of God, don't mess up the eye at that stage of the game. Even my thickheaded son did exactly what the doctor said and he is healing because he did not screw it up. Don't you think I am going to do what I am told after my ankle surgery so that I will be able to walk. Your eyes are more important than my ankle, and putting off Leon's wrist surgery is not like this is a once in a lifetime shot, it can be rescheduled.
