Day out at the Dr.s
Well I got out of the house today. Went to the ortho, he said my knee still needs about four weeks and there could still be cartilage damage. Wait and see! The surgeon said my skin grafts look good for the most part. I have one spot on my neck that might not have taken, but he still wants to give it a chance. The biggest concern is the scarring on my neck and shoulder. The scars contract and hinder movement. So my limited range of motion is his biggest concern right now. I will work through it and hopefully it won't be a big issue. I feel pretty good otherwise. Still have the sleep issue, that's my biggest concern... haha. Still at least 4 weeks away from any kind of work even light duty. I just want to be able to do something!!! Thanks for the messages, they really do pick me up. Talk to you soon. JB

Okay, I'm going to have to take this site down if you keep posting the "raw meat". We are still praying for you every day. Hey, how about Wii or PS II? Maybe we could drop off Jude's games and it would help keep you occupied; guitar hero, motocross, 4 wheelers????.
PS If you could make sure all the girls are in bed by 8pm Saturday, I would greatly appreciate it. Patty said she expects you to do all the preparations since your just laying around. Just kidding! Please let us know if we can do anything to help out! E & G
Your donor site looks so much better! Just wanted to check in and see how you're doing. Tom should be calling to bug you soon. Hang in there, it looks and sounds like things are getting better. I can't believe how much healing you've done already. As always, we are here for you guys if you need anything.

And sleep cant answer that one busy changing crappy pants and the baby hollering or the dog so keep trying. take care Brod and if I can help let me know. this was hard work writing a letter. see ya.
