I only have one hand and it's busy right now!

I'm glad I didn't miss class last night for the appointment with the surgeon, but man do I wish I had the results from my MRI! I also wish I got this stinky smelly cast off yesterday, too!

In the middle of the night I tend to take off my socks and sometimes other clothes, but last night was a first. I was trying to take off my cast! At first I thought my blanket was wrapped around my arm, but when I couldn't get it off my arm I tried harder to wiggle my arm free. It wasn't until I fully woke up I realized it was my casted arm and it wasn't going to get free. It was a disappointment, but there wasn't much I could do besides go back to sleep. 

I think having my arm free is going to be so weird. I've kind of come accustomed to the limited use of my left hand/arm. My typing is a lot faster, but nothing like two hands. I've also figured out how to get myself ready with limited help. Although tying shoes one handed is nearly impossible that's what flip flops are for! I've also started driving by myself. My turning is not as smooth as I'd like, but the job gets done without any accidents or causing traffic. I'm sure the tiredness felt in my right arm will lessen as the muscles get used to driving one handed. One good thing about having only one hand is I can't be tempted to talk on the phone while driving because I only have one hand and it's busy at the moment. I have to be patient when my phone rings and wait until I'm parked to call them back. 

I'm trying to be patient in finding out the MRI results, but even though it's less than two days away I'm going crazy at thinking about how I could have known yesterday! Monday is going to be a big day for me. I meet with the surgeon and then have my interview with MeySen! Hopefully it's a big day full of good news! I know at this point the good news for my wrist is unexpected, but I guess any news is better than more bad news! I guess I'm hoping if surgery is needed it is quickly scheduled and healing is quick. I am hoping more that surgery is not necessary and I can get started on physical therapy right away! I'm also hoping there won't be any other options too different than the ones I've thought of... like just amputating my arm and calling it done. As far as the interview I'm nervous and excited. I know it will be a while before I hear the "results" from that, but hopefully the good news of acceptance is offered quickly! Again, I'm hoping no other options will be offered. :)
