OK, here's the story! A true story! LOL! Yesterday I spent the whole day outside and did things that needed to be done for sooooo long! You've had those moments where you just can't stand it any longer and JUST HAVE TO DO SOMETHING about it!?! I was so there.... I repaired rocking chairs, weed whacked flower beds, pulled down wasp nests, power washed the two porches, trimmed back the plants, and re-potted some spring plants that the summer heat had gotten to.
Last night, all the sudden the wind came up and the clouds darkened to black and we had a downright gully washer complete with thunder and lightening! I ran around in the rain trying to put up all the tools. That done, I came in and got cleaned up, put on my UT flip flops and decided I would go back out and proudly look at what I had accomplished. The rain had stopped. I did my inspection, turned back toward the house... My flip flop had other ideas and got stuck in the mud. Wouldn't cha know it! Me going one way and my flip flop the other. Don't ask...It just happened! LOL! Next, I knew I was going down, but still couldn't release my foot from the shoe. That's when I heard the crack as I came down into the mud puddle! That's what happened! Too weird! Thank God Cesar was around and looking out the window...By the time we made it into the house we looked like two pigs that had a nice little mud bath in the pigsty!
I waited around a bit to see what would happen....Like my ankle would be miraculously healed once the mud had been removed...You never know right?
But I knew it was broken. It's a weird feeling...So off to ER we went....
Here are some not so flattering pictures mostly of my backside! LOL!....
First, there was a shot in the hiney!! Why? I have no idea! The nurse said to rub the spot where she gave me the shot or it would be sore for weeks...Is this really true? LOL!
Then there was the X-ray! Yep, a spiral break at the ankle! So, a temporary splint was put on until I could get to the orthopedist for a real fiberglass cast...For 6 WEEKS!!!!! Good Lawd! I already have claustrophobia with this VERY HEAVY contraption on! OK! I'm not going to complain! It is what it is!
This is where she bent my foot into a natural angle! I could have killed her and everyone around! THAT HURT!
Now if you really want a show...you should see me trying to walk on crutches! It's Hilarious! 'Bout near took out half the furniture in the house in one single blow! I've been trying to figure those suckers out, actually, I'm trying to figure out a lot of things today....Like getting dressed, taking a shower, etc. I've decided that the palms of my hands hurt so much from the crutches, that I would grab the office chair on wheels. Been having fun gliding through the hallways!
Well, that's the story....
THANK YOU FOR ALL YOUR WELL WISHES ON FACEBOOK! So very kind of you all!!
Have a Sensational Saturday!
Jim
The Gentleman Crafter
Ouch!! Hope it heals real quick - you'll thank her for forcing into a natural angle when it heals straight, however much it hurt at the time.... can just picture you whizzing around on your chair... all the best.
ReplyDeleteOh no! So sorry to hear of your misfortune! Open things improve quickly for that ankle! Take care!
ReplyDeleteWow - must be painful :(
ReplyDeleteBut now you should have plenty of time to create nice stuff in your craft room :-)
I have just started to make my version of your watch box, and found out that I do not have everything I need to complete - so I have to finish it later. But it's fun to create 3D projects - thanks a lot for your inspiration.
My best wishes for a quick and painless recovery !
:-) Nina
how exciting! and to think now you won't have do any more work around the house the rest of the year on accounta ya know we don't mow in the winter... Oh wait that is other state, of course we mow in the winter we live in Texas.
ReplyDeletexoxo Get better real soon
(but soak up all the love ya and attention can)
Jim - I am so sorry!! My daughter wrapped dish towels around the handles and the tops of her crutches and used duck tape to keep it on. That was the only way she could stand to use them. She was on them 8 weeks after her foot surgery. Hope you get into the Ortho soon. Next time you should wear A&M flip flops - :)
ReplyDeleteoh boy Jim, sorry to hear about this...get better quickly...Mary Ann
ReplyDeleteOh No Jim. sorry to hear of your mishap. I pray you have a restful, speedy recovery. ((HUGS))
ReplyDeleteSo sorry for you. Make sure you take ALL the pain meds. My husband broke his rib. Pain meds can only bring a smile. Hugs Karen or sweetad
ReplyDeleteYou poor thing - i know what ur going through. I broke my ankle 2 years ago - slipped down a small incline whilst fishing with my husband and son- like you I sat for quite a while thinking it would get better, unfortunately the a&e department I went to in England only looked at 1of my 4 xrays and said it was fine just badly bruised. They sent me home with crutches and told me to rest - 4 days later my foot and ankle were so black and blue - i had no feeling in my foot at all just cold to my calf. The hospital called me to say that they had checked the xrays again and a mistake had been made!!!!!! It should have been pinned but as it had started to heal they would see what hapened - it took 4 months for me to be able to weight bear on it x Good luck with the crutches they are hard work but stick with it I was quite a wizz on mine in the end. Rest up and get well soon xxxxx
ReplyDeleteThat sux, but on a positive note .... you look like you've lost weight!! :)
ReplyDeleteOh, Jim! I can only imagine the pain, fortunately I have never broken anything myself. I hope you see the orthopedist soon & find a way to deal with the crutches. The office chair sounds fun, but be careful, you don't want to break anything else! FYI Crafty is fabulous for taking your mind off the pain, well that's the excuse I make anyway ;-)
ReplyDelete"Laughter is the best medicine". It worked for me, I hope it works for you as well!
ReplyDeleteOuch so sorry! Hope you learn the crutches real quick. Keep your sense of humor that helps and don't over do.
ReplyDeleteHoly Moly, Big Guy!!! I did myself in on my garden clogs when my heal went one way and my body the other. WE SHOULD KNOW BETTER......but we don't. Big hugs, and I'll be thinkin' about you, and Cesar. He's gonna need a lot of wine to combat the whining, I'm sure. Crutches are more dangerous than flip-flops!!!
ReplyDeleteYour Friend in ART,
Linda
It's a nightmare, been there done that! Just thought I'd chip in to give you a tip from my time, get a plank of wood to place across the bath and take baths rather than showers. You get into the bath with the good leg, lower yourself down one legged and place your bandaged leg up on the wood to keep it out of the water! It works a treat and was a god send for me! You might want to cover the wood with a towel if its too hard! Good luck, I hope it heals well and quickly. x
ReplyDeleteAwww man this sucks! I pray for a speedy recovery. I wrapped hand towels and taped them to my crutches for cushioning, as far as your hands you will develop calluses and then it won't hurt any more. Rest up {{{Hugs}}}
ReplyDeletePoor you! I'm glad you can still smile about it all though. When I broke my foot a few years ago I struggled with the crutches too and ended up with a wheelchair instead - much more comfortable when out, but I'm glad it was only temporary! On the plus side, when I got the proper plaster cast on I decided to pretty it up a bit with some stamping. My friends and I all stamped onto tissue paper then collaged it onto my cast (which was bright purple)! It certainly brightened things up and made the nurse smile when it was time to cut it off!
ReplyDeletePlease look after Jim for us Cesar - hugs to you both.
Jim.....i had 3 foot surgeries...two words for you, KNEE WALKER...it's awesome..you can get around a whole lot easier, look into it. Your insurance may even pay for it. Crutches are BRUTAL. The fiberglass cast is better than the splint..you will like it better..cooler than the splint...take it easy, dude. That's a nasty break.
ReplyDeleteProp and crop!! Hang in there!!!!
and my last cast was at Christmas time, so i chose red with white stripes..they made me into a candy cane! bwaha! have fun with it, may as well, you can't do nuthin' about it!!
DeleteSo sorry to hear it Jim! Here's hoping your doing a jig real soon!
ReplyDeleteOMG! At least you'll have it off before you go to Italy and it's your left leg so you can still drive?
ReplyDeleteHugz, Z
OMG!!! only you Jim, I'm telling you really need to write a book on all the not so funny at the time, (but funny story to tell late things that seem to happen to you). On a more serious level, hope you figure out the crutches as I don't think you will be able to take your office chair with you out of the house. Sending you a big hug for a speedy recovery. Thanks goodness it wasn't your arm, or wrist as they would make it challange to do what you so love to do, scrapbooking. Annette
ReplyDeleteoh my! I hope it heals ok. Hopefully the cast will be off before you know it! Liz
ReplyDeleteOMG Jim I heard the news but didn't know how bad it was. Praying for a speedy recovery - oh and I hear ya about the crutches. Never thought I'd master that! Feel better soon <3
ReplyDeleteJim Ask the doc if you can have a walking boot if you promise not to walk on your foot. I have cast clastrophia too. The boot is much better..
ReplyDeleteI feel for you. I finally got a wheel chair for the house because I would have starved to death. You can't carry food or drinks with crutches. If I was out I tried a place shopping back to one crutch...
So sorry but that's the breaks! ;) You tell the story so well. Speedy recovery :-)
ReplyDelete~ Vanessa W
Oh my goodness! I'm amazed that they put a cast on you right away! Last time I broke something it was my left fifth metatarsal (it's that Long bone on the outside of your foot, and I was five months pregnant at the time!) they made me wait several days before they put me in anything and then it was one of those removable plastic contraptions. Lemme tell ya, it was not fun trying to chase after two little kids with a growing belly and a broke foot! You have the good fortune of being able to stay put...so please stay put and rest up!
ReplyDeleteTake er easy. Wishing you an event free and speedy recovery. Be well. Hugs.
ReplyDeleteThe bad news is that its broken but the good news is that A) its not another kidney stone and B) your mailbox is going to be FULL of the most amazing get well cards the world has ever seen :)
ReplyDeleteFeel better soon!!!
Poor Jim, sending you big hugs and hopes for a speedy recovery. Praying for you Cesar, having to nurse him back to health.
ReplyDeleteOh no! Get better soon!!!
ReplyDeleteOh no, I'm so sorry Jim - hope you get that cast off in record time. Don't expect it to feel great when you do but it will certainly be better than it is now. Therapy will help and lots of booze - oops did I say that. haha I had a broken ankle and it was pure H - E - double L. Do what the doctor says and stay off of it as much as possible. That will help. You will probably invent a whole new language of words during the recoup. Maybe you could get one of those scooters that you bend your knee on and scoot along - I've seen people with those. Has to be a lot better than crutches. Good luck in your recovery - think happy thoughts. Hugs, Brenda E
ReplyDeleteSorry to read that Jim - hope you heal super quick! On the plus side - being an invalid for a while gives you more time to make and show us lots of crafty goodness!
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness. So sorry to read about all your mishaps. Hope you heal fast and well. A real test of your and Cesar's relationship looming through this process. Maybe you can figure out how to get some real creative time in while healing. My thoughts and prayers are with you both. Theresa aka Mountain Dreamer
ReplyDeletePoor Jim. Hope you get better soon. More time to craft. you never know you could bling up the crutches
ReplyDeleteGoodness gracious! What are we going to do with you when you turn 50 and things start to fall apart? Broken bones aren't fun to deal with. When my son broke his arm, we bought a plastic cover for it so he could take showers, but seeing this is your foot, it probably wouldn't be safe for you. I hope this doesn't interfere with your upcoming travel plans. Hey! You will get to board the plane first with all the kiddos. Not sure if that is a plus. Take care and be kind to Cesar, he's all you got. And Cesar, if Jim gets out of control...steal his crutches and the chair. BAWAHA! Take care, both of you.
ReplyDeleteOh my Jim, I hope that you feel better soon. Are you still going to be in the cast when you go to Italy? Look at the up side, at least you got everything that has been bugging you finished. Take Care.
ReplyDeleteJim, what can I say that hasn't already been said? You know in your heart you should mind what the docs say...so listen to them! Please be safe and smart in Dallas...let the gang going with you, help you. I'm just a phone call away if you need me to come get you in big D, I'll be there. Hugs to you AND Cesar...you're gonna need him...be good to him.
ReplyDeleteOh Jim, I am so sorry. What a weekend!
ReplyDeleteget well soon
ReplyDeleteBless your little pea pickin heart !!
ReplyDeletePoor you! I hope you adjust to being 'confined' for awhile---I'm sure you're going to get creative in getting around! You have a knack for storytelling, Jim....I spilled my coffee over my keyboard from laughing...sorry! HUGS!
ReplyDeleteHey Jim, I just happened to find your old blog today which led me to your newer blog here to find out about your mishap! Sorry to see if have had an accident, but like someone else noted - the good news is that it wasn't your arm or hands so you can still craft while you are laid up! : ) I have bookmarked your site and hope to see you getting better soon. I did want to note that with the crutches, add some fleece strips wrapped tightly around the top where they go under your arms and again where your hands go and it will be much better. You can use "zip ties" to secure on the ends. DD had knee surgery last year and was on crutches for 5-6 weeks and once we did that, it was a little better on her arms and hands! Good luck!
ReplyDeleteOh boy, dejavu all over again! I fell 30 years ago in flip flops and broke my foot in four places. Labor Day weekend. Er put a cast on and within 48 hours the leg and foot swelled so bad they had to take it off. If you've ever had a cast removed, the tool they use looks like a pizza cutter, only electric! They cut my leg from knee to foot! Ended up seeing an orthopedist who fixed all that, and couldn't believe what they had done. Switch to a walker Jim. Crutches will throw out your back and give you aches and pains where you didn't know you had muscles. I could not get used to crutches. Maybe in a few weeks you could even try a cane. I know, I know...old man Jim right? You'll get over it. Thanks for sharing this not so funny story. Hope you feel better very soon. Maybe it's a sign to slow down???? Wink.....
ReplyDeleteMary
Oh please, please be careful on your crutches!!! 12 years ago, I had some surgery on my knee, went home, all comfy in my chair.... then decided at midnight it was time for my pain meds! Didn't want to wake hubby up, so scooted off the recliner, grabbed my crutches, started towards the kitchen and WHAM!! Fell off those suckers and crushed my wrist!!! On my right arm!!! The one I use!!!! So here come the paramedics, looking at my leg all done up and then my arm in a weird Z shape... ugh!!! I was a mess I tell ya! So just BE CAREFUL!!!!
ReplyDeleteTeri
Sheeesh! Gotta watch that mud!! Hope your better soon....what a freak thing! But ya know... ya could just spend that 'down' time creating...your being forced to now...so let the Creative time begin! Yay! Happy Trails are in your future...
ReplyDeleteAWWW I am sending you healing prayers and a speedy recovery.HUGS
ReplyDeleteI read a few comments and am feeling bad--- all I could do was laugh not at your pain but at your photos and your story telling. As always thanks for sharing-- not only your Beautiful projects but your life. Stay strong it's going to be a rough 6 weeks
ReplyDeleteoh I feel for you my friend- but on the good side- I bet no one has distressed a cast before! Tim that baby up! dont forget the glitter n stencils!
ReplyDeleteI'm so sorry pal! Keep it up as much as possible and ice the crap out of it! My 13 yo dd is 4 weeks into her compound fractured wrist now. She has had some newfangled waterproof stuff on the inside of her cast so she can go to the pool and swim. Tell the tech to put the cotton sheath inside and it will be more comfortable. We found out by experience! It has been great! She can swim at the pool and shower with it, but she still gets out of dishes...too many germs they say. lol
ReplyDeleteWishing you the best of luck! Oh yeah, I almost forgot...I heard that Texas Tech sandals never get stuck in the mud! lmao!
Been there.. done that, but luckily, mine wasn't so severe. Sure puts a crimp in everything you try to do, though! Hope you're not having a lot of pain - and it heals quickly! Hope you don't have any major travel plans in the near future.

So sorry to hear about the break, but thanks for a good laugh on Monday morning. Wait until they put the real cast on. They may have to maneuver the foot again before setting it. Take several Tylenol before going! Good luck with the crutches. Ask if you can have a walking cast.
ReplyDeleteWell, Jim!! For heaven's sake! I am so sorry that has happened and hope you are on the mend real soon. Loved the pictures, and wouldn't you know....just about the time you become really efficient on the crutches will be the time your cast comes off! haha
ReplyDeleteTake care and stay out of the yard and garden until your ankle heals!!!!
hugs, Sieglinde
Bless your heart, Jim. I am so very sorry about your injury. I pray your recovery is quick & pain free!! What a drag!! It can be a good opportunity to get some serious attention & sympathy, though!!! By the way, I broke my arm a couple of years ago when my sandal hung in the handle of my heavy crafting bag. The sandal & bag stayed put but I didn't!!! So Jim, I have a lot of empathy for u. Hang in there & know that all of your faithful followers love u & are praying for u!!
ReplyDeleteHi Jim, I wish you a speedy recovery and I am glad you still have your sense of humor thoughout all of this. You had me lauging all the way through the story. Luckily you have Ceasar helping you. Hope to see more wonderful crafty projects from you soon. Hugs
ReplyDeleteAs long as you don't have to get on any planes, you should be OK. That will teach you to work so hard and then feel compelled to check out your handiwork when you're tired and there's extreme TX weather at hand. That's what windows are for! Have Cesar knit you some nice padding for whatever conveyance contraption you end up with. All hail Cesar! Will the cast be one of next year's CHA projects? I can just see you turning it into a journal. ;-)
ReplyDeleteI'm so sorry, what a horrible accident! Please take care when you're on the crutches & I hope you have a speedy recovery.
ReplyDeleteget well soon.. oh my -- that´s horrible!
ReplyDeleteYou said CRACK and I inhaled and held my breath then my foot hurt in sympathy for you. Oh My Gosh. No more flip flops out side. Just bad news. take it easy rest the foot up and Have a nice drink on us unless your on pain meds. Then wait and have it later.
ReplyDeleteA brand new use for Dylusions!!! I'm terribly sorry this happened, Jim. You don't have time for this. Now, can I laugh out loud because you wrote such a funny story bout the whole event. I have a vivid picture in my head of the two of you covered in mud. Keep a close eye on your toes for swelling - my husband's cast was too tight and he ended up with deep vein thrombosis - if they're turning blue, race to have the cast removed. Get to the orthopedist immediately to make sure the bones are in correct position. If you're sitting, put your leg up!!!They make fleece pads for the crutches but you also have to build up your stamina to use them. What a pain in the you-know-what, right? I'm sending my deepest condolences to Cesar - getting muddy was the easy part.
ReplyDeleteHue hugs
Mo(Mori49)
Oh my goodness, Jim! I know I shouldn't laugh at your pain, but what a funny story! What a piece of luck, mind, that Cesar was around to help! I can just picture the two of you rolling around in the mud!
ReplyDeleteI do hope you are not in too much pain, and that these six weeks go by as fast as the previous six weeks seem to have (for me at least!)
You will be able to get so much crafting done now - we will have videos to watch until Christmas!!!
Hugs to you both - julie
Oh my, I'm so sorry this happened to you! Put some foam or something soft like fleece on the crutch handles as well as the tops. This will help save your hands and armpits!!! Been there done that! This too shall pass, but nothing like slowing a person down and feeling aggravated and impatient. Be of good cheer, we're all thinking about you! Kris

ReplyDeleteSo sorry to hear about your fall, it is so hard to get around on crutches, maybe you would be able to gt into a wheelchair in the house, it would be easier on the armpits! Take care, and best wishes to yu Jim!!!!
ReplyDeleteWow! You know, since you are so darn "crafty", why don't you make something out of that soon to be old contraption they stick on you? An embellishment here and there, a dash of stain...who knows, you may have an outstanding piece would you are done to go with this story of yours....Prayers and healing comin your way
ReplyDeleteOops, that should of said, Stuck on you & an outstanding peice when you are done. I must of laughted too hard at your story...pays me right!
DeletePoor guy! Speedy recovery to you! I bet you will have a fab decorated cast!
ReplyDeleteOh Jim. Thankfully you got all you jobs done so they don't nag at you whilst you are sitting around because of your ankle. Hope you recover well!
ReplyDeleteOh Jim I'm sorry to hear you've hurt yourself. Reading your story I haven't laughed so hard in ages. Thank goodness you didn't break a wrist at least you can craft for 6 whole weeks. Karen.x
ReplyDeleteI am so sorry Jim! What a bum rap! And why not just go for a walker and not fool around with those nasty crutches! I will be sending you healing vibes!
ReplyDeleteJim you need to get one of those walkers for your leg you put your leg on it resting like on your knee and just roll around you can rent them talk to your dr whole lot better than crutches.
ReplyDeleteouch....that stinks - hope you are up and around soon as we don't have time to be down! So much to do - hope you can make the best of it. Hugs to you.
ReplyDeleteMary Z.
Only you could make this sound funny, Jim... Better than weeping and gnashing of teeth, right? Uuummm.... your yard should be just about ready for your attentions again when the cast comes off. Save some energy!!
ReplyDeleteI'm so sorry you got hurt! Take care, at least the yard work is done and you can focus on blinging out those crutches and that cast. Updates will be appreciated. Get well soon! :-)
ReplyDeleteOh no!....how awful!...here's hoping for a speedy recovery....also hope that your trip to Italy is more than 6 weeks away!.
ReplyDeleteBless your heart! Sounds like you are in good spirits at least. Just be careful on those crutches... I don't want to be reading about more mis-haps!!! Take care.... hugs!!!
ReplyDeleteOH MY !!!!! Jim, I know it hurts, I broke my leg and angel at the same time, that was a lot of fun. I put a garbage bag on the leg and taped it. took my showers that way, LOL I do feel for you. and wish you the best. Keep your spirits up and you will be fine.
ReplyDeleteHugs
Mary Nell
Oh no Jim!!!!!!!! This is terrible news. I went thru this about 5 yrs ago - not fun. Hated those darn crutches, being only 5 ft tall, they could of atleast given me childrens sized crutches that I actually could use!!! LOL. I literally had to crawl around my house for 5 wks. I have carpet so the office chairs were no help either. But, if it is any concellation, it actually goes by quickly and before you know it you will be back on your feet. It all will become second nature before you know it and then it will be time to get rid of the darn thing. Good thing you wear shorts alot, because long pants are definitely out of the question now. Hope your work place is cooperative. Wishing you a speedy recovery and sending lot's of hugs!!!!!!!

ReplyDeleteYou are one humorous fellow, Jim. Cannot help but have great respect for someone who can look at such a situation with laughter. Kudos to you. I broke my ankle many years ago at a mine site and could not find anything humorous about it. Well, maybe now .... after 25 years or so... lol
ReplyDeleteAnyway, hope the healing goes well and that you will be able to just sit and create and enjoy all your wonderful crafting. Jane
Holy Cow! You see what happens when you leave your craft room! As I'm sure other's have suggested just use a large trash can liner. The black kind. Pull it over your leg, then tape it shut above the cast. Shower will be easy peasy. I hope you get the hang of the crutches. I think a walker (at the right height) would work better. Crutches hurt your hands and your underarms. So put some foam around both the top and the hand holds. That might help you keep from getting blisters. The office chair is probably the best way to get around in the house. Good luck and heal fast!
ReplyDeleteHugs Jess
ps: should I tell you how my flip flops under mined me? That was the last time I wore them, except on the beach! Take care
Yikes...get well soon.
ReplyDeleteSo sorry to hear of your accident, but it's great you have such a sense of humour about it. Wishing you a speedy recovery and lots of crafting.
ReplyDeleteOh you poor thing. I have found flip flops are no-nos after a rain. So sorry about your leg. How will this work for your trip?
ReplyDeleteSo sorry that you got hurt. Hope you feel better soon.
ReplyDeleteYikes... I am trying to keep up with everything that is going with you! You are one sore dude, I am sure! I am sending good healing thoughts your way! Hugs!
ReplyDeletehere is the cure...head your wheely chair to the craft table and take your mind off the ankle, by making some of the wonderful things you always come up with. no more chores! Heal fast.
ReplyDeleteOh bless you, your poor ankle, I hope you heal soon, don`t give up with the crutches, I know from experience what a pain they are but you`ll get used to them, sending big hugs your way x
ReplyDeleteAnother person sending good thoughts your way. In keeping with your signature style of making items that are both attractive and functional, I predict your cast will be transformed in no time. Perhaps a flip up side table with some underneath storage affixed to it, decked out in Steampunk Spells of course. When life hands you lemons others make lemonade, but you sir make cool containers to store those lemons. Happy healing.
ReplyDeleteSorry Jim to hear of you fall. You made your fall story so amazing. I'm sure at the moment it wasn't that way. Hope you your healing goes as nature has planned it.
ReplyDeleteGood morning Jim from "across the pond". There I was reading your post, thinking to myself this guy is crazy busy and feeling worn out on your behalf! but then I get to the part about the flip-flops and OUCH! Do hope you feel better soon. Take care
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness, so sorry to hear about your accident! I adore flip-flops, but they can turn on you with diabolical cunning. At least you can sit with your leg propped up and admire the tidiness of your garden. Get well soon!
ReplyDeleteI am so sorry that this happened! I hope you won't be offended but I just have to let you know about a product that can help you heal faster. When my mother fell flat on her face, I was just sure that she would look awful for months the way a woman at my church did when she fell just the same way. However, when we got her home from the hospital a few hours after her fall, I gave her two doses of this product, OPC-3, and she never really looked bad and healed really fast. It has done so much for so many people, so I wanted to let you know about it. You can check it out here and get more info:

I do hope you heal quickly with or without it, and that you do well with the crutches.
Hi Jim,
ReplyDeleteSo sorry to hear the news. Big Hugs. I hope you heal quickly.
