My dad has screws and pins in his leg (fibula, I believe) and his ankle, from separate work-related accidents. After he broke his arm last week, he told me he felt fortunate that at least they didn't have to do surgery for that as well -- he already beeps when he goes through metal detectors.

I was like 6 when his accident happened (he was buried under 6 feet of dirt in a sewer ditch -- I forget if I mentioned that), so he would have been 32 at the time.

i must have forgot about the cruise ks mentioned. once i think about it, i do remember it.
a cruise is something i have not had the interest in. my gay cousin wants me to do a cruise with him and his partner.
its not my thing to go on a gay cruise..........

Not until i am told what a MH is.

today....they worked and I love YOU ALL SO MUCH for sending those vibes...
and mac has had my back too on Sunday's) that both of us have found something close to home that is decent. Heck, he can walk to work!! Now we just have to get all his retirement stuff in place and get paid what they owe him for early outting and all that......it's what he wanted, so I'm very happy for him. 35 yrs. in one job and he wasn't relishing looking for work after being so settled for all these years. Again, I thank each of you for listening to my whining back in the winter and for keeping us in your hearts! You guys rock!! May not be big news for anyone but us...
but we are relieved and happy that all the worry is behind us for the time being. Sometimes its the timing and for both of us, the moon and the stars must have lined up just right. Oh, its with the water department so he will be getting some schooling and training too....never too old to teach a dog new tricks I guess......
