Woo hoo! No surgery for Ryan…. for now anyway!

Good news today! Dr. Matsen said Ryan’s shoulder appears to be OK so they are treating it like an initial dislocation…. for now.

That means wearing the immobilizer and doing some isometric exercises to strengthen the shoulder muscles. They also taught him how to fall next time so he doesn’t injure it again. That will be a challenge as our natural instinct when we fall is to reach out to stop our falling.

Bottom line is no surgery…. for right now!

Yippee!

Journaling has never been easy for me so doing this began as a way to convey wisdom to my sons (or that’s what I told myself!).

I now find it very therapeutic and do it whenever I realize a Life Lesson has been learned. I’m also hoping one day when I’m gone my sons will appreciate having these thoughts from their mom.
