I've had communication, also. Yep, pain right after surgery is to be expected. It's only been a very few days since late Monday surgery. Anyone who's been in hospital knows they come check you....wake you to ask if ok, etc....so, she's probably busy, annoyed and downright bossy mad. add pain, little sleep...another personality develops.... just wishing faster recovery...we all miss her.

I talked to Jan this evening. Her computer won't work there so she can't post. Can anybody say BORING? LOL

She got an assessment from a therapist and was told that she is WAY out in front of most other people in recuperation from her surgery. That made her feel better. She will be assessed again on Friday and will probably go home on Saturday. She is ready to sleep in her own bed in her own house!

Well it’s Saturday. I hope everything is going well for you, Jan, and that you do get to go home today.

Last conversation I had she was lining up to go home today. So she'll probably be able to post in a couple days......

Just a quick note. Got out today and home. The rehab they sent me to was the worst I have ever been in and except for the little actual rehab/exercise work, it was a nightmare. I am so glad to be out of there. I will be basically starting from scratch on the rehab I am afraid because I don't feel like I got anything like what I should have. They said in the original assessment that I was beyond what they usually send to the "acute rehab" but I have suffered greatly from the neglect in this place they sent me. It was so nice to actually be able to just roll over to my side on the bed because I could not do that in the narrow "hospital bed" and it was impossible for me to scout over enough to roll partially over. Regardless.... Deb got me and we got scripts filled, a few extra ALOT from the riding and all. Going in to see if I can actually get a decent night's sleep..... start over tomorrow. They hurt, but not the same intense pain in the joint when I stand.... I'll be back more in a few days . Thanks to everyone for the well wishes.

Really sad about the rehab place. Why are they even in business if they aren't going to do any rehab???? Hopefully you will be going to a good PT place soon.
