Michelle in AL Posted January 29, 2009 Share Posted January 29, 2009 What a wonderful place to be! I worked as a nurse in a children's hospital, it was an oddly wonderful supportive place to be.

Jean in Wisc Posted January 30, 2009 Author Share Posted January 30, 2009 Good to see you. How is your son's recovery? He is doing very well, but it is going to be a long time before he can go back to doing his normal routine--it takes a year for the bone to fuse, and he will be restricted until then. He fell down a couple of days ago. He dropped something and forgot not to bend over--kind of an "automatic pilot" mistake. He ended up sinking down on one knee and rolled over onto his back. I had NO IDEA how to get him up off the floor without bending his back or neck!! I called the nurse's station at Shriners, and they were able to talk us through it. LOL! I now know how to get a 6'1" kid off the floor by bending him only at the hips. I'm not sure that was an education I wanted. :001_huh: He's been a bit more sore since then :sad:, but that is no doubt because he stretched the muscles that were cut and stretched during the operation. Thanks everyone! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
