Woo Hoo One year down

What a Year!!! Wednesday is one year since me shoulder replacement and what a year it has been. We have spent a total of 14 days in hospitals and have had three surgeries between Laurie and myself. We have done some traveling both for fun and not so fun. Hawaii was pure fun. I can't wait to go back, as i sit here freezing watching the snow fall I dream of getting to go back. Oh someday. Last week I was in Washington DC for some medical testing, that was the not so much fun part of the trip. but I was able to see a little of the sights, even with sending two days in the hospital that was not planned.

In life I have set many goals, some I have completed but many I either just failed to complete or let fear keep me from completing, when I had my shoulder replaced my DR gave me a goal to be able to make my arm go to 150degrees of forward raise. Laying in a hospital bed with very little pain meds on board this seemed like a impossible goal, and I remember the pain and tears that it took to move that arm just a few hours after surgery. Though there has been much pain it has been worth it because today I can still lift my arm to 150 degrees. Some goals in life are easy and some seem impossible. I have always dreamed of working in healthcare specifically either as a Dr, Midwife, or another type of primary care. I have re...
