Chuck scored really high points on the Best Husband in the World scale by giving me this cute-as-the-dickens Vermont Teddy Bear as a get well gift after my recent wrist surgery. The cast is on the left arm, and it has a little sling just like mine! Its little hospital gown is even open in the back (also just like mine was)! It doesn’t get any cuter than this!! Thanks, Chuck, you really ARE the best! It came in a fabulous box that had an airhole punched in it, and a little box of caramels. I mean, the whole thing OOZED sweetness!!!

Update on the wrist: I have another week in the splint as the doctor had to cancel my checkup scheduled for tomorrow due to emergency surgery (surgery he’s performing, not having, I presume). *sigh* The good news is mobility is really starting to return. The pain is pretty much gone (more like muscle soreness and lots of stiffness now) and the scar is looking even better after daily doses of vitamin E oil. By the time I see the doctor next week, I should be in prime shape for liberation! Once I’m free, I’ll free the bear. For now we’re comrades in arms (yuck-yuck)!
