I didnt mean to worry everyone...and your prayers were what I needed for they worked..........
NOTHING IS BROKEN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! BUT...........finger is jammed and shoulder is messed up badly. It is effecting my elbow and neck and wrist. My knee is bruised on the inside.....and 4 ribes were out of placed and bruised..........the place on my neck where they hit is swollen...I couldnt even see it until he showed me the difference..... My shoulders are two different hights.....its gonna take some work but the sprain and strain "WILL" heal... Thats good news.......... The driving wasnt so bad as far as only using one hand....at least my right side is the one I "CAN" use......the worst part of driving was not being able to move my head and neck like I am used to. Felt like I was driving blind....well guess I kinda was..... The chiro really worked me over.....but the xrays didnt show anything broken....there may be a hairline fracture in my shoulder blade but there isnt anything they can do for that.....I already got pain pills and thats all any other dr would do for it.......... So its rest, ice, extra calcium, and a couple more treatments....he only did stretching today....he wouldnt actually "POP" anything due to the swelling. But he is trying to help me get the range of motion back in the shoulder. Hurt like ha ha........but I let him stretch them..... I am gonna just kick back the rest of the day and hope I am up to going to work tomorrow........... I HATE just laying around....I feel like it will get worse and more stif if I dont just keep moving.......... uuuggggg........I HATE FEELING LIKE THIS!!!!!!!!!!!!!! but I am thankful I have friends like ya'll to pray for me/with me.....and send me well wishes and LOVE.......... Thanks everyone! Luv, Kay |

Kay, you sound like me. I'd drive myself before asking for help if my arm was hanging by a thread......"Oh no, I'm fine. Really. It doesn't hurt much". I'm so glad you made it there and back OK.
You'll get more sore over the next few days no doubt - so please take it easy and let your daughter help when she's home. I know she won't mind taking care of Momma. I'm SO glad nothing is broken - and please be careful these next few days/weeks so you don't strain anything. Geeze.....the things people do for a little attention around here.......

FFM - So glad that nothing is broken. Actually, it is a miracle as 800 lbs is a lot of weight.
I like your attitude on doing things for yourself. |

Glad to hear you'll mend, Kay.
You may have to take more than ONE day off from work. Just take it easy. *that's an order* I gotta admit tho~ I HATE to ask someone for help too!

Kay, I'm so thankful you are still alive and kickin'. I've handled a few of those gates and a stack of 'em falling on you has got to be the scariest thing.
Said a prayer of praise that you are ok and sending up many for complete healing... Pam
