To Zach

[sueincc]

I'm sorry if I should have posted this elsewhere, but I wasn't sure where. he probably will never read this, but on the off chance he does I am going to risk sounding a little loony & post this letter to him:

Last September I had my ankle joint taken out so my leg could fuse (old injury, long & boring story). As you are now painfully aware, when you wake up from having your bones sawed through it's excruciatingly painful. It feels like your leg is on fire and also aches really bad. People don't understand they think that since you are on painkillers it doesn't hurt. Man are they wrong, huh? I was on a morphine drip 24/7 & that barely took the edge off. Plus the painkillers make you feel goofy. I was in the hospital for a week.

Once I got home, I wasn't allowed to walk until mid January. I had to pretty much sit with my leg up the whole time! The recovery was very slow & very boring. The hi lite of each day was going to the bathroom! I thought I was going nuts. BUT I am SO glad I had it done. I can walk so much better now, and am practically pain free. Before the surgery I hadn't walked without a limp for over 10 years, and there was no way I could jog or run, but you bet I can do it now! I also had a lot of pain because when you walk funny for very long, it effects your knees, hips, back & even shoulders & neck. That's all pretty much a memory now.

I'm only telling you this because I want you to know that even though you may be going through a rough time right now, it's not only going to get better, ITS GOING TO BE BETTER THAN EVER!!!

Why would you say that? The new shows where very good. Well at least the second one was. I don't like see other in pain.

That was very nice post!! Thank you for sharing what you went through. I'm glad your surgery was a success.

I was not posting this to get sympathy, nor was I pitying Zach. I got so caught up in the show I even forgot it doesn't air in "real time", which means by the time I saw the episode I'm sure he was all healed up & past the point of needing any encouragement from anyone. Anyway, I'm feeling a tad bit foolish & just wanted to apologize if my post made anyone uncomfortable. :oops: :oops: :oops: :oops:

Your post from June 9th sac6213:

"My child is a 12 year old girl and she is wearing these really flashy showy off clothing. I told her she cant wear it to school so she goes out of the house wearing jeans and a polo then when she gets into school she wears a mini skirt and an undershirt. What do I do? The principle already contacted me about her clothing but she wont change!! Help!"

My reply to you sac6213

Well - you won't get any sympathy from me !

sueincc, there are times I have a thought and type it out but may come off wrong. Which I don't mine to and there are times I just like to type.

I am glad that you are doing better.
