She has been waiting this whole trip, months, to get her left hand fixed. Now it’s pretty much useless; there is no grip left at all. She can use her right hand better and better since surgery a year ago, but almost every right hand action requires a left hand to hold something steady against the force (like opening a jar). Not that I see this as a problem; it’s job security for me. I reach, grab, and open everything she needs. J
We have an appointment to get her left hand taken care of, but guess what, her doctor and appointment are in Corpus Christi, which is in the middle of a long-lasting weather event! If she can’t get her surgery right away, that will suck, but how bad can she afford to feel for being inconvenienced by the storm, when so many people have lost their homes already, with more damage to come? Our trip back to Texas was all planned out, but now we’ll have to watch and wait; see what route is open, which roads are closed, and when she can reschedule her doctor’s appointment.
We’re at the Laramie KOA.
It’s a big blue beautiful sky.
