Unfortunately my surgery didn't quite go as planned. The debridement and bone graft were okay but when they tried to plate and screw my pelvis the osteoporotic bone kept crumbling. My surgeon spent 5 hours trying to devise a new type of plate....so yes, I am now unique with a 'one of a kind' medical fixation...lucky me!! Looks like I will also require a second surgery to fuse the back of my pelvis as well but that is something to think about later.
Here's the bad news - with an unstable pelvis I am now confined to bed for 6 weeks.....uuughhh...can you hear me groaning???
At least I have my laptop as a lifeline. Typing while laying down is a challenge but hey, I've got all day to fill. Slowly I will get around to visit everyone and catch up on all your news. I'm relying on you all to keep me entertained.
Lastly, I must say a very BIG thank you to everyone who has left lovely messages, sent emails, cards and flowers. I appreciate your support and well wishes. Our blogging community is just full of wonderful people.
Hugs,
