I know George, already he has been a big help. If he should walk in the house right now I would be in deep waters. But I can't lay abed all blamed day! I'll sick him onto supper, already have the turkey roast started so all he has to do is the spuds and veggies. ----- Original Message ----- From: "George Elting" <justgeo1@attbi.com> To: <GEN-FRIENDS-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Saturday, January 19, 2002 1:34 PM Subject: RE: [GEN-FRIENDS] slow today Now you take care of yourself and let that husband of yours take care of things...

And we've been blessed with wonderful friends, neighbors, and church... We've had many meals brought over by them... it has really helped, especially in the first week or two... Now, be nice and get your leg up so the swelling goes down! :) Just another soggy Seattle Sysop. -----Original Message----- From: Vicky Ballantine [mailto:cobolt47@frontiernet.net] Sent: Saturday, January 19, 2002 2:29 PM To: GEN-FRIENDS-L@rootsweb.com Subject: Fw: [GEN-FRIENDS] slow today I know George, already he has been a big help.

Actually, Vicki, lying abed all the blamed day is exactly what you should do today and tomorrow,. I hope you have put on ice packs as they will reduce the swelling and the bruising. A bag of frozen peas is an excellent ice pack as it takes the shape of the knee. RICE -Rest, Ice, Compression and elevation are the order of the day. Put a pillow under the knee and rest your ankle on another pillow. My experience is following doctor's orders from the beginning will reduce the number of days laid up and hasten healing. Time to take up knitting or embroidery or some such. My other advice is to see a sports medicine specialist. They have lots of experience with similar injuries gained on football players and the like. Physiotherapy helps too. All my wishes for a fast and complete recovery.
