That's good news since I'm sure she'll get tired of being in only one room. I hope Fran's Ortho appt. goes well and she doesn't get any more bad news.
Well Fran can now traverse the whole house in the scooter, except for Olga's room, and I'll give you guys a spoiler for the House Thread. Olga won't sleep in her room any more. We've stopped the rotation stuff, about a week before the fall. She has become a herd cat, thank goodness, so we're not doing that every other night thing any more.
And there was not Orthopedic Doctor that could see her today. She has two appointments for tomorrow. At the same time. I need to cancel one.
Oh no!!! What a nightmare. I will confess to not understanding how DVC points work in the least (your quote about Charlie Brown's teacher applies to me here!) but I sincerely hope you can figure this out and it works out for the best. More importantly, I hope Fran heals quickly with a minimum of pain and that you guys can work out her care. I'm so sorry your plans were interrupted like that. I hope she gets well soon.
Well, I'm now working on a number of options. I just want to see the Ortho doctor and get some answers, how long do you think it will take to heal? When do you think she can bear weight on it? Just basic stuff, this is killing me when she can't even step on the other foot. A trip to the bathroom takes 40 minutes! With me being there helping to get up, get down the whole time.
I wouldn't wish that on anybody!
Luckily she has been pretty good about sleeping through the night!
Oh Alison and Fran,
So sorry to hear all of this it was a true nightmare. I wish we were closer we would help, too but we also don't have a car that someone could get into if their entire leg was braced. Ughhh.
She just wants a car she can lay in the back seat of! I picked up a rental car today for the next week, we'll see how it works.
The boot would be so much easier, I hope it heals quickly, and that Fran is getting so relief.
I do hope that they give her something like a boot like you had. At least that would protect her ankle and fibula. We'll just have to see tomorrow.
In a similar situation I have seen people be able to rent out their reservations on the DIS boards, under the rent/trade section. Hope you are able to get all of that worked out.
I'll check into that before canceling, but most likely go with David's or another possible solution.
Oh carp! I'd trade points with you but I am going to be out of town during your trip. So sorry to hear about the fall, hospital treatment, and the trip issues. Hugs to the both of you and hoping for a speedy recovery. Give Fran my best and keep us posted.
Thanks, I'll definitely check in post Ortho Doctor appointment, It's then that we will have some idea of course of treatment and what will be involved in the expectation of healing. Thanks for the hugs, we need them right now!
Gosh! Hugs and prayers for fast healing. I really hope you are able to get your points rented. Good luck on staying healthy. Sounds like you have worked hard at it and did a good job while dealing with the hospital. Take care!
I'm sorry you had to come on board to such a dismal TR, but I guess if this thing gets postponed it will be a real bonafide PTR as we reschedule and rebook everything!
Oh my goodness, what a nightmare! I'm so sorry
I hope the ortho appointment went well and no more bad news. Thats good you were able to get your smaller scooter down the hall.
No Ortho appt yet, that will be tomorrow. I did get a rental car and I hope we can put Fran in the back seat and drive her to the appt. It's a much bigger back seat than the Prius, so we'll see how it goes. Naked Jim should be back from San Diego and he said he would help if we needed it!
