Bravery has never been my stronghold - never has, probably never will be. So while I was on the couch, I got a bad case of the "what-ifs." When my mind wanders, it wanders to the world's worst scenarios EVER. After several melt-downs, I finally got control of my emotions and thoughts and swept my worries under the rug.
Tonight (Friday), just a little more than a week after my accident, I went for a follow-up checkup with Dr. Daniel. Good news is - my knee is healing properly and I won't have to have surgery. The circulation is normal and swelling is going down. However, there is something needs to be monitored closely for the next week. My lower ribcage area has broken tissue and some mild abnormal hemorrhaging. It causes some fierce pain when I am laying down, hiccuping, laughing, and breathing deep. Until next week I'll be on steroids and new pain meds. Hopefully after next week, I will be completely medically cleared by the doctor.
Until then, I can return to school as long as I used at least one crutch and sit down for the majority of the day. It will be nice to see everyone at school again. On Thursday, Budi and a few specialist teachers brought my class over to come visit. It was so refreshing to talk with them and just listen to how their week has been. I have truly loved getting to know each and every one of them these past months. Each one of them brings a special blessing to my life.
Thanks for all your prayers and support! Until next time...
