Thanks, DDD's. I'll report tomorrow evening, after I see the Orthopaedic Surgeon. I'm hoping that the only damage done was to my ego, but both knees are stiff and achy, and the one with the already-fractured kneecap is quite swollen. I must share something cute, though - at least I thought it was cute. When I fell, Pucci was fretting all around me until I managed to get myself up. Later, when I was changing into my nightgown and robe, Pucci came over and kissed both of my knees. I had done nothing to prompt his doing so. He did bring a BIG smile to my face.

Shipmaven - what a sweetie pie Pucci is and he loves you so much. I hope this morning finds you are okay, and that a nights rest has helped the swelling go down. Take care. (((HUGS)))

Geez lady, this is NOT the way to generate conversation on the roll call. Please no encore. Hopefully the much deserved Pucci kisses, rest and ice helped.

Everyone have a safe weekend, that includes you Momma Duck. Those of us in the heat box, stay cool.

Attending the duck race is part of the weekend agenda, unless Warren has to do that cruise money thing, or the humidity turns me into a bigger *itch than I already am. They are expecting over 200,000 people.

Pucci is definately your "child" he knew just what Mom needed. You always take special care of him
and it was his turn to take "care" of you!

Mary Ann so sorry you fell --sometimes the getting up part is worse than the fall(from one who has had to call rescue squad to help me up.) It is amazing how loving and caring our puppys are when we have a problem. My dusty used to tuck me in bed with a toy on either side and if I moved they squacked and he would come running and with a flying leap la don my bed. He used to sneak into my mother in laws room when she was napping and get up on her chest to make sure she was breathing..

Will be waiting for reports. Good luck. I got thumbs up from cariologist for another 6 months.

Thank you so much for your concern. =hug =hug

The x-rays were taken this morning, my appointment with the Surgeon is at 2:30pm. I'll report afterwards. I still don't think I messed up the prostheses, but the kneecap(s) may be another story. Both knees are VERY tender to the touch (gee, I wonder why?).

=hugs Mary Ann =hugs Hope all it is is a bad bruise. I know that bruises can take a long time to heal but I
would hate for you to break a kneecap!!!!

Good luck!

Mama Duck reporting, as requested...

Good news and not-so-good news. The good news is that I didn’t cause any further breaks, although there are contusions and inflammation. The not-so-good news is that I must continue “babying†the knee (as I've been doing for months), and the Orthopaedic Surgeon definitely does NOT want me taking the long flights for the NZ/OZ cruise. Getting in and out of an aircraft seat is very difficult for me since my surgeries, even flying first or business class, and puts great stress on my knees and back.

I also cannot do any PT except for hydrotherapy. But I am most grateful that I didn’t break anything else. I am quite sore though right now.

Thank you for your concern. =hug

Thank you, Duckies and Jill. After the news about Elliott and Jeff on the AFT Deck, my knee is an inconvenience.

I'll be sure to give Pucci some scritches - they're very therapeutic for frazzled Mommy nerves!

Message to Eddie from Pucci - hey, pal, it's Saturday morning. Even though Mommy is up. I'm still in bed - she called out your message to me (I'm not getting my tail outta bed yet). But I like your idea. She scared the whiskers off of me, and I watch her gimping again. Sheesh.

While I'm at it, [size=large]WOOF WOOF QUACK[/size], DDD's.
