  1. Breaking bones isn’t fun and the healing takes time. The hip is weight bearing and I’ve not broken anything that complicated as of yet and I hope not to either. I hope Princess Gail is better than ever very soon.

    Have a terrific day. Big hug to you both. 🙂

    1. The pain is much better. Now it’s more the nuisance of not being allowed to bear weight on the hip for 2-3 months. It’s frustrating for her because she’s a very active person.

      Big hug to you and Z! 🙂

  2. The hip crip. Bah humbug. The only thing funny about that are the pink handlebars on the walker. Best wishes for an injury free new year! : )

    1. Those are extra cushion grips. Her hands have calluses now. It really isn’t funny. But she makes the best of it!

      Yes, best wishes for all of us to have a happy and healthy 2012.

  3. OH NOOO! When she goes fast with the walker, do you hear that same sproingy sound they played on the TV show? Remember that? I wouldn’t even know how to describe it!

    I hope Gail is BETTER BETTER BETTER!!! BUT… is it possible she can milk this a bit…? “Oh I hurt a bit… can you get me something from the kitchen?”

    1. Ha! Yep, she makes the sproingy sound when she goes really fast on her walker. And she makes the doot-doot-doot-doot sound with her telescopic vision! 😉

      But she doesn’t milk it at all, and she doesn’t have to. When I’m home I try to help her with the stuff that’s just a pain to do on a walker or wheelchair. When I’m at work she does it all by herself. She’s a really independent person.
