On June 19 Grammy and I drove to Patriot’s Place in Foxboro.\u00a0 Sounds like fun, right? Unfortunately I was there to have surgery on my rotator cuff – not watch a football game.\u00a0 My shoulder has been hurting for 8-10 months and I’ve been getting weaker, so it was time to get ‘er done.<\/p>\n
The surgeon who worked on me – Dr. Oh – is one of the talents in the world of shoulder surgery.\u00a0 He’s worked with Patriots and Red Sox players.\u00a0 I was in good hands, and within a few hours of getting to Mass General\/Brigham & Women’s hospital, we were on our way back home, Grammy taking over the driving duties.<\/p>\n
I’ll feel crappy for 4-6 weeks, sleeping in a recliner, wearing a sling day and night, not being able to drive or use my right hand for anything. But you gotta do what you gotta do and suck it up to get to a better place.\u00a0 I’ll do lots of physical therapy, but in 6-9 months I’ll be back in the game.<\/p>\n
It’s weird – last year Grammy was down and out with her hip surgery; this year it’s my turn with shoulder work.\u00a0 Sometimes in life you have to go through challenging times to get to a better place.<\/p>\n
I was so happy and a little emotional seeing your drawings, cards and balloons when I got home. You made my day!\u00a0 I’m so lucky to have you in my life.\u00a0 Love you lots & lots forever.<\/p>\n
