update #2

Well, sorry for no craftyness on my blog for the past couple of days as I had a set back I wasn't expecting. See the other morning I took my son E* out to his bus, but my shoe wasn't fitting right so I took off my sock...E* squawked "MOMMY YOUR FOOT IS HUGE!!!!" Sure enough my foot was triple the size it normally is, same with my leg...off to emerg I went and they thought I had a clot. I quickly found out that a person with a potential "clot" ranks lower on the Emerg list than someone with "possible H1N1"...anyways in the end, I have no clot but had an infection in my leg. Was put on IV antibiotics, for 2 days and they worked really well my foot is down to it's normal size...but now I am on antibiotics in pill form.

This morning I went to ER again, this time to get my stitches out and to find out I HAVE to do Physio again and so as you can see I have been rather busy and worried with my knee surgery complications. I will be back in a day or two with a crafty project for you :)! Thank you for all your kind thoughts...means a lot :)!

Inky Hugs,
Catherine

So sorry to hear about the infection! You make sure you take care of yourself. :0)

Glad it wasn't a clot and that they were able to treat the infection. Yeah, the triage system in the ER's can seem a little strange at times....and that's coming from someone who worked in an ER for 4 years. Look forward to seeing your crafty things once things settle down there for you and your family.
