Patient #2

Just on the heels of K's broken arm and cast removal was Andy's shoulder surgery.  He had a piece of bone shaved off of his clavicle.  It was causing a good deal of pain when he moved it and other treatments weren't providing him with relief so he decided to go ahead and get surgery to fix the problem.

He spent his day on the beach with me in the morning and then in the surgery center in the afternoon.  His nerve block wore off very early and he wasn't prepared for the amount of pain he was in less than 12 hours later.  Thankfully after a few weeks of pain, PT and lots of love and attention, he was back on his feet.

The very next day was his birthday.  He wasn't feeling very well but managed a smile for his celebration!  He loves Friendly's Reeses Pieces sundaes so we made him one instead of having cake.  He loved it!
