Neck brace for another month
Well I hoped my neck brace would be removed and I was scared of the loss of control too. Although the doctor says I'm healing well, it is back to the brace for another month or so. I will have an op on my arm about a week afterwards.
Also, they have found a new bone problem with my elbow.... it seems it was also damaged in the accident, not simply my wrist and shoulder.... it will be looked at after my shoulder has been operated on sigh..
I have started to see a psych too.. I find the self-seeking he wants me to do quite hard.. I don't *get* it, but I will keep on trying. At least with him I get mad at someone I can't hurt.
It's Easter now and I am very glad of the holidays. Work is harder than ever, as is home life and I am really really tired.. no more 13 hour work days for a week..... Yaaaaaaay!

Anger, born of fear and frustration. Only to be expected and difficult to handle.
After I had cancer surgery I had all those emotions. I was so damned mean I couldn't like myself.
Sounds as though your progress is slow and steady. That is a good thing.
wow. you have been through so much. thank you for sharing your experiences with your blog. i hope it's helping you.
you seem very strong, and like you can get through all of this.
a close relative of mine waited for a kidney transplant for almost 5 years, during which time he had one of his ankles replaced and both hips. then the transplant. i could not believe what his body had to go through. but our bodies are amazing. and now he is so much better, and for his experiences he has an appreciation for life that he didn't have before.
the transplant hospital assigned him a psychologist, and that really helped him. it's difficult to adjust to talking to a counselor, but if you have a good one it can really be a great help for all those difficult emotions.
hang in there. it will get better.
