(You didn’t think I was going to use that polyester hospital sling, did you?)
Thank you for all of your good wishes and book recommendations. The surgery went fine and the cheerful doctor says he fixed me.
Now if I can just make it through the next two weeks wearing ponytails and baggy shirts. Not doing dishes or laundry (hush, Niall). Ordering in and driving one-handed. Changing diapers with my feet (kidding) and typing with six fingers…

Ouch, is right. Good luck recovering, Amy. I hope it goes smoothly and quickly, and that you find a few unexpected benefits of having one arm for a while. Take care!
I’m glad you came through okay. Get well soon.
I’m so glad that you’re fixed! Love the 1974 sling.
So glad to hear the op went well. I LOVE that sling!
Get better! Heal fast and well. Tell your peeps to take good care of you
Miss Amy! how stylish you are with that cute little flower sling! That would drive me bonkers!!!!
Wishing you a speedy recovery!
Good for you…makin’ your own sling!! Much better than the overpriced one they sent home with you, I"m sure.
Hope your recovery is speedy and low impact.
Take care! Your sling is much cuter than the standard issue
Best wishes for an easy recovery. I can’t imagine living one-handed for a few weeks. You may find you have more dexterity in your toes than you ever imagined.
i’m so glad the surgery went well! heal it up right! take care.
Please promise to call if you need anything at all!
And I am totally envious that you saw Hair! I haven’t seen a play since last Fall!
That sling HAS to help you heal more quickly — or at least more stylishly!
Isn’t it great to have an excuse for dishes in the sink and ordering in??? Hope you have a lovely time healing up, get lots of help from your familia and don’t go too bonkers with the things you can’t do.
I’m glad the surgery went well! That is the best sling ever, for sure. Pony tails are good, baggy shirts are good and not doing laundry or dishes is REALLY, REALLY GOOD!
Love the sling! Enjoy not doing the while you can…Or at least I would!
Drinking wine with a straw, so chic.
Feel better!
I’m glad that the surgery went well! I hope you’ll heal quickly and feel better soon!
Wishing you all the best in your recovery!
Oh my gosh, I can’t believe I missed the Pete Seeger post!! A couple of weeks ago I wrote about how I wanted Pete to adopt me when I was a child… Please, please, give him my sincere affection and appreciation if you meet him again.
I’m glad your operation went well. Get well soon.
Oooh, may your recovery go smoothly and simply! Nice sling!
