Thank you all for all the thoughts and prayers. I have needed them . The good news is that I saw an excellent orthopedic doctor yesterday. The bad news is the shoulder is more than fractured......broken into 4 pieces. So today I had a CT scan and am waiting for surgery to be scheduled.
I asked the doctor to make me bionic---that would speed up my quilting---but, sadly, he said the most he could do is promise that I would set off alarms--like in the airport--- when he finished. I will settle for no pain and returning to stitching the best I can.
So my thought for today is take nothing for granted. Each small motion and activity we do daily requires many things to function properly and in a sequence. Motion of one part is dependent to another. Just like "no man is an island", we need others to help and lean on. Sir Old Man has been so much more than a knight in shining armor....I just can't think of a grander title to bestow on him. He has been a great caregiver.
I will check in again soon.....have a happy stitching time for me.

Wow, I'm glad you found an excellent doctor, but it sounds like this process will take a while. Please tell Sir Old Man thank you from all of us.
So sorry about your shoulder. I had shoulder surgery almost eight years ago with a good result. Sounds like you're happy with your surgeon, and that's always a good place to start. Best of luck and happy healing.
Gosh, so sorry to hear about your upcoming surgery. I hope it's successful and you are up and about in no time. We always take for granted our health until it's impacted in some way. Take care,
