If surgery recovery were a race, I’d totally win. I got a gold star from the surgeon today at my 6 week post-op check up.
Doc: “So, did you wear your sling for six weeks?”
Me: “EVERY GODDAMN DAY!”
Doc: (…) Wow. That’s a passionate response.
She was particularly pleased with the muscle waste around my shoulder, proving that I had, in fact, done what I was told.
Bottom line? This girl has the green light to swim, bike and run again.
It’s about time.
