STEPHIE, you have NO idea how you have so brighten my horrible day!!!
THANK YOU from the bottom of my HEART!!!
Girlfriend, you are ONE in a MILLION!!!
We have just returned from Mass General Hospital, Diana had her first post-op check with the hand surgeon. When he removed all the bandages and the temp cast from her hand there in front of all of our eyes was the
scar...o..m..g..it goes from her knuckle on her pointer finger to her wrist. The surgery was to place the metal plates/pins/bolts/screws in her hand. We cried. AND Diana is still crying. The appt was at 8:20am. She cannot move her fingers at all RIGHT NOW. She will start physical therapy on Friday in Boston. It will take one year to resume full use of the left hand.
This is just so devastating and heartbreaking.
We were all just starting to do so well and trying to understand this horrible accident and then to see her hand today was just so upsetting.
I have tried hard not to keep replaying the accident in my mind but for some reason today brings it all back, Diana falling, the horse falling....
DH keeps saying "SHE IS HERE, SHE IS STILL WITH US, who cares about a scar when we know she is alive and with us"...and I know he is absolutely right but she is getting engaged and this is her left hand. (
I am thinking like every girl would think.)
I look at the CO pics in my siggy and they were all taken before the accident and I can honestly say none of us has really smiled much since the accident.
THANK YOU AGAIN, STEPHANIE, THANK YOU!!!
