Thank you everyone for the well wishes and prayers in this time of need. We always look at these moments in time as if things could always have been much worse. What happened is most unfortunate, but we are grateful for the gifts we are given each day.

Anyway I just brought her home after spending the night with her in the Hospital. She is in a lot of pain, but recovering. After spending nearly 5 hours in the OR the Dr had rebuilt the radial ball joint completely with a stainless steel "T" plate and seven 2.4mm screws. It looks like a nightmare in the Xrays, but the Doc appears very confident that everything went well and that she should be good to go in a few weeks time. Once the swelling and pain subside from the initial trauma of the surgery, she should begin for realize full mobility and strength in the arm in question. He has every confidence that she will make a full recovery within a few months. Now we just have to get through the therapy of forcing herself to work it out and get better. Pain is difficult to work through.

At any rate we have a few appointments over the next week and should be on our way to Europe by the end of the month. Yeppeeeeee.
