Day 5

Steve and the Roach part two:

Steve is a master of form and balance on crutches. Once again Steve coming out of the bathroom see a big roach that has just make it under our bedroom door. I mean it had barely made it an inch into the room and Steve’s hawk like vision spotted it. I was lying on my bed so the only thing I could see was the poise and form as one crutch went up, it wasn’t fear that griped him just a heighten sense of things, the crutch came down with a bang and the next thing I know the roach is dead. Steve has now started naming the little critters this one was Daddy roach. He now also puts a new notch on his crutch for each one he kills. Woe unto you little critters for you days are numbered.

Day 6

The Leg is still in a lot of pain and it seems to shift in where it hurts, if that is possible. Steve’s recovering faster and better then I am. I guess I had more done. I really want to go home. We went to see the Doc and he said that I need to keep ice on it all the time as the swelling needs to go down. If not then it will be time for a tube to pull it out. I have been icing it all I can but don’t see much in the way of the swelling going down. Still painful to go to the bathroom but I still go for a number of reasons, two being obvious and the other is that it’s nice to be in a different environment other then the bedroom.
