Update on my granddaughter

Many of you have asked how my granddaughter is doing since she broke her collar bone a couple of weeks ago.

I am happy to report she is doing much better! Unless we remind her to take it easy, she doesn't even seem to notice that it was really hurting her. Of course, when we remind her, the drama queen in her comes out and we hear about how "bad" it hurts "all the time!"

Today she was taking my hands in hers and dancing from side to side swinging her arms around not showing any signs of pain or discomfort!

After her bath tonight, she showed us how well she could lift her arm over her head. It's not 100%, but it is getting there.

Raising a grandchild seems like it is far more work than raising her mother was. Perhaps it is because we are older now and things have changed so much since her mother was a kid. Whatever the reason, she does keep us very busy! That is probably a good thing!

We will get to see her follow-up X-rays in a couple of weeks. The doctor said that her bone will be very strong. I told her that it will be the strongest in her body. In her mind, that meant it would be the "only" bone in her body!

I didn't do very well in biology or any of the sciences, so imagine my angst in trying to explain bone structure to a six-year-old! I ended up just reassuring her that all her other bones would stay right where they are!

I'm glad kids heal quickly. I wish us older folks did, too!

Thank you for showing concern for my precious granddaughter and for all your care for me, too!

Best wishes,
Karin

Kids are so resilient. Glad she's recovering nicely!

That's great news. Kids are tough and quick to heal. Trust you had a great Mother's day.

Thanks, Mickey. Yes it is great news. We had a very nice Mother's Day. Didn't do much, our older daughter came to visit with her children. Did you have a great day, too?

Yes, same here. Just hanging out with family. Had a great time.

Glad to hear she is recovering Karin. I remembered I broke my collar bone when I was about 6. Kids have an amazing ability to heal quickly.

Yes, I'd guess you have your hands full.

We sure do, Fran. But I wouldn't change a thingβ€”well, except that she wouldn't have gotten hurt, of course!

Anybody an affiliate in the CBD market?

Hmmmm... Not me.

Best wishes,
Karin 😁

Thank you!
I have an interest and I know it is trending in use for pets now as well. Like dogs with anxiety for example.

Definitely something to think about! Thanks Karin :)

I have heard that it is good for what ails you and your pets, too.

Best wishes,
Karin 😁
