The Best News ever day yesterday, X-ray Appointment


YAY!!!! The bone has grown, i'm so happy in fact i'm buzzing about it. The pelvis is 100% healed and the femur is 60% healed so i can now full weight bear and of course now comes all the hard work. I've obviously got bambi legs so got to do it nice and slowly and build up to getting rid of my crutch, but at least there is an end in sight. Doctor told me to be selfish from now on and put my physio first not housework or sorting children out, so booked in for physio 3 times a week to kick start this next 3 months of hard graft off. But i'm on cloud nine and nothing can bring me down right now.

Oh to make it even better, i told him about the hassle we are having with the tribunal and he has wrote me a scathing letter saying how insulting they are saying that i could work before this surgery, and the fact my surgery wasn't necessary. Also said how the 'medical person/Pen pusher) has no qualifications and has had no correspondence with the Hospital or any of my specialists. So i'm so thankful for that as well, i'm going to copy the letter and send it too my MP as well.

Well i'm off to practise standing up from my chair, and sitting back down with no assistance (gotta do it for 10 mins a few times per day) to strenghten my abductors and various other bits their.

Fantastic news Debbie, so so pleased for you! Glad those bones have finally healed. Now onto the hard work of physio, but just think... a few months and you will be walking pain free - how wonderful that will be! Hugs, Sam x

Oh man so very happy to hear this! The hard work of your physio will actually feel so good after all the months of pain and hardship you've endured.

Also very pleased that you mentioned the tribunal stuff to your doctor. That has to ease your mind so much after all these months of fighting.

Home stretch now Debbie!!!

Thanks girls, i can't actually believe this day has come. The healing was a hard and sometimes dark process to go through, so i'm glad to see the back of that. The physio will be hard and painful but at least working towards a goal, so will be more rewarding. The Consultation was absolutely outraged that this sort of thing can even go on, when they are not contacted in anyway to help with the decision process and yet can determine your future. Going to show the MP as well, as others have failed while they have Cancer, and not given good outcomes, like you can actually mentally deal with cancer and financial issues and them being so slanderous. xx
