Well, 8:30 appt… here we are! Arrive and they tell us they have us down for 1:30…I don’t think so…I have my card. Fill out paper work and wait….with one impatient person I might add. If you have not taken a Bridges Man to the hospital or a doc. visit, then consider yourself blessed!!! They are just not good at waiting or sitting still! I believe this would be unanimous if I took a vote among the women in this family…and many others I am sure. We keep telling them to shh, hush, be quiet until we just give up & start laughing at them. THEY WILL SAY…JUST HOW LONG IS THIS GONNA TAKE, I been sitting here for an hour, I have stuff I need to go and do! Like the doc is on their schedule! We are really laughing because we know they call you back & you think you are going to be seen…not….they take you to another waiting room!!!Hee!
They x-ray his hand, we get to the room, they un-bandage it…& the non-stick stuff helped…yeah!!!
Clean it again…yuck. But it is healing. Doc checks out the x-ray, admiring his work!!! I see the pins and I can also see the other break in the thumb…clean down to the joint. Then he tells us that if that does not hold together he will have to go in & put in another screw….take a break….while I slap the doc…..Cole’s said…I don’t want that!!!! They were able to put the soft cast on and maybe next week take out the stitches & put on the hard cast. His hand is wrapped up more now than before!!! But at least it is more protected now! I believe I was confused…I think this is the day we took the computer & ate…oh well, after all this, why would I know what day it is anyway!!! Guess what time our next appt is….yep….8:30….does he not realize that I can not sleep at night???
