BFF

Debbie who is one of my oldest dearest friends, 47 years we have known each other, has to have rotator cuff surgery yet again. 3 years ago she had it on her right shoulder and she was off work for 4 months to rehabilitate. A few months ago her left shoulder started hurting and sure enough she has the same problem but they are saying not as major, she will only be off her 2 jobs for 6-8 weeks. She works at Warner Bros studios and has a second job like me on the weekends at my sister Hospital, Holy Cross which is close to her house like mine is. She will be having the surgery next Wednesday Feb 10th at the Motion Picture Hospital in Calabasas. So she decided to get a light perm in her hair so she will be able to just let it air dry since she won’t have use of her left arm at all for awhile. So she got her hair done at a salon near my home in Burbank last night. I decided to swing over to Starbucks after dinner and pick us up some non fat cappuccino’s and met her over at the salon while she was getting her perm. It was very nice to be able to see her before her big day next week. The two of us try to get together every month but our lives are so busy working 2 jobs 7 days a week, sometimes we go for 2 months without getting together. We did get together just 3 weeks ago. I will visit her at home if she is feeling up to it Monday Feb 15th which I am taking off as a vacation day with Sunday Feb 14th. She is very nervous about the surgery because last time she had an adverse reaction to the anesthesia when she came out of it. I am sure she will be just fine.

   I can understand that your friend is nervous - a surgery is never fun, and of cause if she had a bad experience with the anesthesia the last time, that makes it even worse I hope that it will be okay this time!

   Hi Dru;

   I would be nervous too like your friend Debbie. I will keep her in prayer. That’s a great idea about getting her hair permed. So easy to take care of.

   Thank you for your comment today on my blog. I’m fine and couldn’t think of a thing to write about these past two days. I’m stuck in a nothing going on time warp here in my little world. Right now I’m waiting for FedEx to drop off my microwave. So I’ll have something to post for tomorrow.

   Have a great evening my friend. Hugs

   Hi Dru! Hope things go well for Debbie. I am not a fan of general anesthesia and can’t believe some people dpo that for dental work! That Sierra Point hike in Yosemite begins near Happy Isles and at the top you can see 4 different waterfalls. It’s been closed for years as unsafe but we did it anyway. Rebels! (((Hugz)))
