Taking a Break

On our first outing on our trip I broke my left arm. We still are unsure how it happened.

We got an ambulance, spent hours in the ER, then came home on the recommendation of ER staff. Viking helped us out. The Icelandic medical personnel were wonderful.

We saw a couple of orthopedists yesterday – we got home in the wee hours of Saturday -as well as had a lovely chat with Jimmy, a retired orthopedic surgeon who is a cousin of my SIL.

Nothing malignant seen, but I have a lovely comminuted spiral fracture of my lower humerus. No elbow damage it seems as wrist, fingers, and forearm function. I am doing fine but very one-armed, typing with my right hand only. Too much work! Family and friends have been fabulous, too.

So for now, see ya later.
