Keep My Wife Marilyn In Your Thoughts And Prayers

About 5 weeks ago I made a post that my Wife had a complete shoulder replacement on her left shoulder rotator cuff.

The Administrator took the thread down, I guess because I posted a picture of the XRay.

She was doing great, was in her 5th week of recovery, But early Tuesday morning she slipped, fell, and came down on the new left shoulder.!!

It destroyed everything. The titanium ball on the bone broke off, and it fractured the upper shoulder blade.

She is now in for several months of pain and discomfort. The surgeon said that due to swelling and inflammation, it will be two weeks before he can go in and repair the damage. The new repair will have to be a reverse shoulder, that being the ball mounted in the shoulder blade and the cup attached to the bone.

In the mean time, she has to keep the shoulder totally immobile, as the bone is just laying in there along with the titanium ball.

Wow Jackie! You better take care of your Lady! She will require a real positive attitude from you.

I am so sorry to hear that. Of course we wish the best for her, and you. Damn.

Oh no. That is just awful.

One of the most difficult things in this life is the pain from our deteriorating bodies. Pain can truly change a person. Trust me I know.

I promise I will keep Marilyn in my prayers. I will ask the Lord to deliver her from her pain. And repair her broken body.
