I went to the orthopedist today in my rental car. I haven't been able to drive my old stick shift car with my arm in a sling.
The orthopedist gave me good news: No cast or sling is needed! I have a small fracture in my radius bone. It is the bone that helps turn your hand. It has a small crack that should heal on it's own. I am forbidden to carry anything heavy (I can't pick up Happi but I can pick up Lucky, if that gives you a sense) and I can't bear any weight. No handstands!
I am so happy I don't need to rent a car anymore. I can type again. I can tie my shoes and brush my teeth. The simple pleasures.
It is a good day.
Until tomorrow...
