This photo was taken heading into hour six hanging with the mom at her doctor appointments at ECMC.

We started the morning off, early, and got RIGHT IN to the first appointment (not even a waiting period for me to go grab coffee!) And then right into the xray and right into exam room and right into the evaluation by the PA.

Impressive!

After a 30 minute break—hello coffee—we checked in for appointment #2. Right on time. This wait was a bit more before going to get xrays. And then quite a while longer in the waiting room after the xrays before heading into an exam room. And then, no kidding. About 2 hours waiting in the exam room. Ugh. I spoke too soon and jinxed us!

Overall, everything is good. Collarbone brackages are healing and they are pretty certain no surgery will be needed. (Thank goodness!) However mom still is not weight-bearing on that side of her body (left) nor on her right ankle. So, rehab for a while longer.

But she is doing well there…healing. Thriving. Losing weight. Getting things done.

Next appointment April 21st.
