I hope it's not true that these things come in 3s -- a flooded basement and a broken arm are more than enough. <br /><br />I was telling a colleague's wife yesterday that living alone is all about figuring out how one person can do all those jobs that are supposed to require two people -- but with only one functioning arm?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5990351249805345004.post-49520439291140952212013-05-15T07:53:22.249-04:002013-05-15T07:53:22.249-04:00Thank you both.

They said it could take 2 - 6 weeks for all the tendons, muscles and nerves to get back to normal.

And volunteering, for me, doesn't fill my need for relevance. That's one reason I started writing my blog, but, silly me, it hasn't panned out this way. <br /><br />I can't understand my journey of loss in anything other than spiritual terms. Kahil Kabran gives me a lot of hope. &GowitheFlohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01842273685414939160noreply@blogger.com
