Collarbone update

October 10, 2006 by Amy

So this past week has been pretty tough.  It definitely has gotten better since my last post though.  Scott’s pain has subsided some and all he needs help with for himself is getting dressed and sometimes getting off the couch.  He even did a little Wal-Mart shopping on his own yesterday.  But he is unable to help out much with the kids.  He can’t really pick them up and can’t change Lexi’s diaper.  So although is presence is appreciated, I’m the one up every morning with them and providing most of their care.  Usually when Scott was off at work, I usually got one morning where I could sleep instead of getting up and doing the breakfast thing.  So it kind of stinks.  But I know he really hates being in the situation he’s in so I’m not irritated at him in any way.  Saturday I had to take him back to the dr because he was out of pain medication and they wouldn’t give him any more pills until he was seen again.  That dr told him he was concerned there was a chip and he may have to have surgery to get it out.  He didn’t refer him to anyone, but left it to the dr he was supposed to see yesterday.  So I took him back again yesterday (and did I mention he can’t drive so I have to take everyone everywhere) and he got a referral to an orthopedic.  But he did give him some new medicine that actually helped with the pain and didn’t make Scott drowsy, so that’s really good.  And my understanding it is 4-6 weeks, not 6-8 weeks.  So one down and hopefully 3 to go.
