My last post generated a number of emails from friends/relatives commiserating with me and hoping for my quick recovery.
I thank everyone for their concern from the bottom of my heart, but to tell you all the truth I’m a wee bit embarrassed. My injuries are really trifling compared to what others have suffered and are suffering. I can imagine them reading and going “Cry baby”.
I just used the hurt shoulder as a reference point for my post without really trying to imply that it’s a devastating injury.
What I wanted to bring out was how a sickness impacts everyone, both the injured and their families. what I was seeking for - although I’m sure there have been reams of professional research on this - was to converse about how often the psychological aspects are ignored while we purely look at the physical facet.
In any case I’m quickly going to pen a new post about something entirely different so that you all realize that the injury has not incapacitated me from hounding and boring all with my attempts at writing.
