wow!
2 posts in 3 days!? What's going on here?!
A few tidbits from my life:
-I started physical therapy yesterday for the injuries sustained in my pedestrian vs. truck accident. There's lateral laxity at the knee joint (duh, low grade 2 sprain of the LCL= lateral laxity), severe pain at the joint line means that the meniscus is involved (she couldn't tell for sure if it was just a very bad soft tissue bruise or if there was a tear), the cartilage on the underside of my kneecap is also affected...proximal tibiofibular joint is misaligned, my pelvis is literally going in two different directions (the left side is tilted posteriorly, the right side is tilted anteriorly), my sacroiliac joint is messed up, as are some of the lumbar vertebrae. Awesome. THIS IS WHY WE CAN'T HAVE NICE THINGS! This is also why, people, you PAY ATTENTION WHEN YOU ARE BEHIND THE WHEEL OF A CAR! Seriously. I was fortunate that I am not more severely injured. Yes, I am currently in constant pain, and may yet need surgery...but I'm not dead nor am I severely disabled/dead. It's by the grace of God that I'm not in worse condition.
-New job is pretty low-key so far, but I know it will pick up...here's hoping I can do well here!
I'm likely going to be dropping off the grid for most of september, as my month is crazy busy with school, work, and physical therapy. I'll try my best to keep you all posted.
