Hi, Kathleen,
Linda's right. A friend of mine broke her shoulder two years ago and it
took a year for her to heal. Don't be in a hurry to do things too fast.
Be patient with yourself. My hand is getting better but I do have to be
careful or I'll re-injur it.

Thank goodness your aid can sew! Hey, don’t expect yourself to do miracles like opening bottles and jars yet. You’ve gotta have healing time, otherwise you wouldn’t still be going to physical therapy. I just heard from an orthopedist I saw Tuesday that anything having to do with the shoulders takes a really long time to heal.

She said she would bring a needle and thread on Friday. Hopefully she'll remember. I sure hope so. Because I don't know where my sewing kit is in even if I did I don't know how to sew stuff. Are you stillWell my 80 even had trouble getting the bottle open she said it took a lot of energy. But she got it. There are the voices that you can use to open stuff. I had a couple of those and I think they got lost in the move. But I'll tell you this much the follow my leader book was originally read by Livingston Gilbert. I don't know if you guys remember him as a narrator but he was for a while. But anyway that was the person that originally read that book. When it was on regular records. But that's just how that wasn't but I think I'm going to have trouble opening things for a while and it's really kind of frustrating. Honestly it really is. Man I wish I didn't have to go to therapy tomorrow because it's going to be up near 90 and humid too. But I really don't want to cancel. Ouch shots in the shoulder that is not fun. Man I know what that feels like. Not fun at all. And I don't like needles so getting a shot I really don't care for it. Honestly I really don't. But anyway my eight houses so button on one of my shirts it came off. And she said

Hi Kathleen,Hi Kathleen,
Oh boy, do I know how frustrating it can be to get things opened. Pickle relish seems to be awfully difficult for me, and the only
way I can do it is to wrap the jar in to a bath towel with the cap
being a separate fold from the rest of the jar, and then move
counter-clockwise with my right hand. I can grip the jar fine,
but can’t open the lids because they’re cealed on too tightly.
Glad your therapy is going well, but I know what you mean being
real sore. I just got two injections, one in each shoulder, and I
was told not to go to physical therapy this week. I’ll do the
exercises I usually do here at home, but that’s it.
Sorry you missed your call from Ray, but hopefully you’ll reconnect.

Linda I remember that book. It was on talking book. Remember when
the talking book records were just regular records? That's how the
book came. Anyway I read it too. But I'll tell you this much when
I set off the Macy's fireworks display it sounded like I was in a
war zone since I'm so close to the East River. Oh man I was glad
it was over. I mean it was wow. Oh boy. Anyway when my egg come
she's going to have to help me open a bottle of ginger rail. It's
a screwtop bottle when I can't get the damn thing open no matter
how hard I tried. I banged it on the counter and everything and do
you think I can get the thing open no way. I think it sealed up
like Fort Knox. You think manufacturers would make things easier
for people to open. Oh yes I know they have to protect people from
stuffy and contaminated but still what about people that have
handed shoes? I mean it's really crazy. Some of the stuff they
seal it so tight you'll never get it open. It's really crazy. I
even said something about it on Facebook too. Even the therapy
when I was up there yesterday I got there early and I did my email
and Facebook. And I had five bars on my cell phone. When I'm down
here I only have one or two. But anyway I took a cab home
yesterday and the guy was Muslim. Anyway he told me he was. And he
actually help me do the credit card transaction which I didn't
think he would. And I asked him why he did that and he said they
were supposed to do good deeds. But he asked me if I had any site
at all and I said no. And he asked me how I got wine. Blind and I
told him it was from birth. Anyway the thing of it is a lot of
people for trail these Muslims this Terrace. This guy was OK I
think. He said he was from Pakistan I think. But anyway that's
just how that went. But let's put it this way I was sure glad to
get home from therapy. I'm really sore today. But like a boy in
that book follow my lead or his name was Jimmy Carter. And yes I
remember that book totally. It was really good. I still have a lot
of books here to read. My friend Ray called me this morning but I
didn't make it to the living room to answer the phone. So he left
me a voicemail. And I sent him a text. Oh well. I left a voicemail
on his cell phone and I hope he'll call me. But anyway it's too
bad about the baby. But a lot of dogs are afraid of fireworks.
It's best to keep them inside.

Connie, I say the same things about fire crackers and the
like. Wehad a bunch of ‘em here too, and those who insist on
using them don’t seem to care that they are nothing but
destructive and can easily hurt someone. I remember having a
book read to me in third grade called “Follow My Leader” about
a boy who is blinded by fire crackers and who eventually gets
a guide dog who rescues a scout troop out of a bad situation.

Hi Karen, that is good news. I don't blame you. I would want
the baby home too so I could see that it is okay. I hate fire
works and fire crackers. I wish they would be outlawed.
People get hurt by them and they scare animals. I'll pray
baby can come home soon.

Hi, All,
Just heard from my son and he says the tubes are out, neck
brace is off, baby RJ eating on his own, but they are
awaiting MRI results. Will feel much better, though, when
I talk to him later. Thank you all for praying.
Just want that baby home where I can touch him and see
that he's okay.
