Tendon Repair Surgery Update

This 'n' That

12 Oct

I am hoping this works posting from my phone. I haven’t been in the office since my last post. Had to have my tendon repaired, it was shredded. If only I had not flooded the laundry room, if only I had of left my flip flops on when I was soaking up all the water, if only that Rae Dunn flower pot had missed my foot…so many ifs…so the Doc said if was another toe they probably would have not messed with it but you need your toe to walk and it was just dangling. The urgent care doc didn’t do me any good especially just gluing it and sending me on my way walking on it. I knew it wasn’t right but like I always say I’m a stamper not a fill in the blanks…this time Doctor. So another if only I had gone to the Stapley Urgent Care…but no more what ifs…can’t change anything.
So I had my follow up appt yesterday and the doctor said she didn’t use a graft as I am petite. I think that means skinny toes, so I go back in 9 days and get it unwrapped and then in the boot. No walking on it or any weight 4 or more weeks she will no more later. 
I am hoping that soon I will be able to use my knee scooter and cut dies and sit and color. 
Right now I just use it to get to the potty. TMI. Sorry.
Thanks for all your sweet messages, emails and texts, you are all so kind.
Have a great…Tuesday…had to look it up…ha! Thanks for stopping in.

Hugs, Di

    My Dad always said "If a frog had wings, it would not bump its butt" Hope you heal soon and are back to walking.

    Diana I know this is hard but I say listen to your doctor. Your health is more important. We can wait to see you create soon. I wish I could live closer to take you some goodies to cut or color not forgetting some candy or cookies as part of the stack. 😜But for now I am sending you hugs and healing blessings. Take care my Cuteness. Your pal Raquel

    I was glad for the update and know that you are having a rough time. But hang in there. this too shall pass. You certainly didn't do this on purpose. I do miss your laugh and fun times but they will start up again when you and only you are ready. In the meantime, know that we all miss you and pray for a complete recovery.

    Hi Di,
    I love your video's. Sad you are experiencing this, though it will be good in a few months. Rest heals the body. My nephew in Michigan had surgery for Achilles tendon tear in July, he still is not walking on his foot, maybe by Jan 2022. I think you were very lucky.

    I'm a hobby demonstrator in Huntington Beach, CA and made your Chicken Poop Chapstick holders for my Oct 9th Holiday Boutique and I sold some! Thanks for that design and all the tips in the video.

    Sending healing energy to you. Hugs too!

Hi, my name is Diana Gibbs and I have been a Stampin' Up! Demonstrator since 1999. I never imagined getting up and talking to people, I am deaf (I wear hearing aids) so talking to strangers has never been a fun thing for me. But put a rubber stamp in my hand and I will talk to anyone.

I hope you can find inspiration and learn new and exciting things while you are here. If there is ever anything you want me to teach you, just let me know!
