      Thanks so much....yesterday was two weeks TRKR....I've been home alone since last Thursday. Friends have been bringing food and any shopping. Pain is not bad, taking my pain pills on schedule. Pt is coming to the house for one more week, then out patient. The dumb blisters are going down. Still have not been able to take a shower. Staples came out last Friday! My range of motion is getting there. Better than I thought.......thanks again for thinking about me! I personally think I'm doing much better than I thought I would go! Hugs back to you!! ??????
