Tuesday Update

So, here is the update. Surgery is needed, two-surgeon surgery. Scheduled for tomorrow, Wednesday, at 1:15, check-in at 11:15, St. Alexius Hospital in Bismarck.
I made it a very interesting break. The end of the humerus is shattered into five different pieces, with a fracture going up into the humerus itself. The main ball on the edge that connects with the lower arm bones is sheered off, up, and to the side. This is just from the X-ray exam, more will be known once they get inside. I am too young, and my bones appear too strong for the need of joint replacement.

Recovery time will just determine upon the outcome of the surgery. They need to do immediate surgery so I can start rehab as quickly as possible to retain movement. No clue what will this do for graphic designing.

A friend is bringing over supper this evening. I will need a designated driver who will be able wait in the waiting room. The doc says the surgery will have to be general anesthesia, and with such I am gone for a couple days. He says I will be in the hospital overnight, but the paperwork orders did not dictate that.

So, who wants to be my driver and friend-in-waiting?

p.s. I have now a driver and friend-in-waiting.
