On July 25, I was walking through the kitchen, slipped on some water, fell forward and broke my humorous.  Ken was at work and the kids and I were here by ourselves.  After calling a few neighbors and no one answered, I sent the kids next door to the Gilberts for help. Sheila came to my rescue.  She gather neighbors to come over and help me get my arm stabilized and get me off the floor into the car.  Ken took me to the emergency room.  After 5 hours, they sent me home in a sling and my arm strapped to my body.  I was in a lot of pain until surgery.

August 3, I had surgery.  The doctor put a plate and screws in the spiral fracture to hold it all together.  After surgery and a bunch of pain medication, I was sent home in another sling.  I was out of it for almost a month.  Mom and Dad helped out with the kids and stayed with us for over 2 weeks.  The doctor said I would take at least 3 months for a full recovery.

Jakey and Kallee have been superheros through this whole thing.  Ken has been a great help and is getting good about doing my hair and Kallee's hair!  Ashlynn has also been a great helping with the kids and cleaning the house.  We had a bunch of different neighbors bring meals.  I am very grateful for all the help.

I am now about 2 months into this and I am slowing getting movement back into my arm.  It still hurts but is better everyday.  I start physical therapy tomorrow and I am excited to heal.
