Humpty Coney


Humpty Coney had a bad hip.
Humpty Coney took a bad slip.
All the Indy docs with plates and pins,
finally put Humpty's hip right again!

Dr. Weber says the surgery went very well with none of the anticipated complications. We still don't know exactly what the restrictions will be, but the doctor says I have to make sure David follows them to the letter. I'm thinking of buying a shocker. It worked to keep the dogs and cats off the sofa. Any other suggestions?

The difference between the first operation and this one is huge. When I got to see him afterward he was awake, alert, and in no pain. He was begging the nurse for pizza. They gave him Jell-o and orange sherbet. Meanie that I am, I left and went to Chipotle. We'll be going home tomorrow and he can eat whatever he wants (Martin's salad and ice cream)!

Thanks to everyone who sent their well-wishes. It's late and I'm ready to crash.

Love, K10

Glad to hear everything went well. The shocker idea is pretty funny.
