SOME THINGS I HAVE LEARNED FROM MY ACCIDENT

Denny and I tried to remove a wall bed from our new home shortly after taking possession Friday afternoon. The wall bed came cashing down, ripping away from the wall and slamming into me. My hand was crushed, and bones were sticking out through the tear in my palm. We drove to urgent care and they took such great care of me, finding a hand surgeon at TMC and transporting me there. By 8 pm I was in surgery. By midnight I was home where I was greeted by my brother and family visiting from out of town.
It could have been so much worse, but it was a horror, and Denny is having trouble getting it out of his mind.

Using only my left hand was challenging, but it got really crazy when my mom and Denny got violently sick last night. We heard from my brother that they are all sick also. I wonder if we picked something up in urgent care because I HAVE NOT BEEN COOKING! So here is my list of things I AM LEARNING typed with one finger on my left hand:

1. I have to wear sweats and all of them r in the RV which is in the repair shop.
2. I didn't think I could drive but in a pinch I THINK i could.
3. Eating only what you can open with your left hand is an interesting diet.
4. You can have peanut butter or jelly on your toast but probably not both.
5. You can open the jelly by holding the jar in your armpit.
6. If you leave your bra snapped you can put it on and off over your feet.
7. Cant open any medicine bottles.
8. There are a lot of people with much bigger, sadder, more permanent issues

9. I can deal with this
