MENDING



I'm on the mend this month from breaking my not so humorous humerus! Mending is never fun, but this.................

they can't cast this break (it's way high, just below the ball of this bone), so after a week in just a sling, my brace arrived and is now safely on. it does feel much more secure this way. i guess this will be my fashion statement for about the next 4 weeks. i think i need a large 'i'd rather be quilting' pin for it, don't you?

looks awkward, I bet it is hard to get use to. Hope you are good at doing things one handed.

Pat, I'm so sorry to hear about your accident. I think you need a 'quilting sleeve' on that arm. :-)
Hope it heels quickly.
