I had surgery to my pelvic bone while at vidant. After all the X-rays and CAT scans it was determined that I had broken my pelvic bone in three places . One fracture on my right side of my pelvis not compete break , a full beak on my front left pelvic bone and on the back part of my pelvic bone. I also broke my pubic bone .
So I had surgery to place a screw and metal plate on the back part of my
Pelvis to hold it all together . I am now in a wheelchair until the follow upnxrays show enough bone growth to put weight on my legs . From that point incannstart physical therapy.
Going through this has been a big change and hard to adapt to living unable to walk . I have to use an extended each tool , a bedside toilet, and my wheelchair. It has been hard learning how to use these tools to better move around and help myself do things.
The biggest thing I am learning is to remain positive. There are so many people worse off than me that I need to keep in mind I am lucky to even be here. Daily I go through so many emotions from anger , depression, happiness etc and it is takin gm a roll on my mental status.
The little things that used to annoy me are nothing. Anymore compared to the bigs things I am now facing. I ammsongratefuk to have my family by my side helping me through this and my loving boyfriend. Overall I will be using this blog to keep myself sane lol and to record my progress . Hopefully this blog will help other people in my situation feel comforted by the fact they are not alone in what they are feeling .
So as of now I am so tired from today I am hitting the sack lol . Thank you all for reading and keeping me in your prayers.
