Hey All!
Got my cast today! They didn't have Teal so went for purple! They had to set it in awkward position cos of break so it's going to to be very awkward....but as I always say......onwards and upwards!!!!
Hope you are all feeling good today!!

It looks awkward but I like the colour. You wiil find it hard to sleep but hope not.
That looks very uncomfortable. Good luck and I hope it's not for many weeks. X
It's a very pretty colour!!
You could always decorate it with some paint, haha. When one of the kids I work with broke her arm, we decorated it with flowers painted with nail polish.
(She wanted glitter.... *Shudder)
Hope it's not to uncomfey!
Prayers for a speedy recovery. I hope it's not too uncomfortable
Loving the cover xxx
Love the colour I hope you managed to get some sleep x
Wow the colour is great! Out of ten how uncomfortable is it? How long do you have the cast on? Are you back at work with it? Poor you.. wishing a speedy recovery! 😊 Love Michelle xx
Hey Michelle!
It's not painful just awkward! It will be on for 6 weeks and I am at work doing one fingered typing!!!😂😂😂
Hope all well with you!

Hi D well that's a relief it doesn't hurt! Lol the one fingered typist oh dear! Yes I'm ok ish.. glad chemo finished as feeling better in myself. Now on Avastin programme for 12 cycles, done one so far.. it's ok but at times get a bit emotional as us girls do.. side-effects and the enormity of it all. I feel positive still and just wish it would clear off so to speak! xx
I hear ya Michelle! Sometimes and only for a short while the enormity of it all takes my breath away....the key is to be able to pull yourself back and that's getting easier thankfully!!! I am still a firm believer in letting it all out and do I always feel better afterward!! In the words of the song and in honour of her visit to Dub this weekend .........

Oh yes need to explode, rant, cry whatever at the time! Lol makes me feel better too! Loving the sing a long 😳😂 lol c
Love the cast/polish contrast!!! Take care today. T. X
Lovely color D but why does the cast look askew ro me? Camera angle maybe? Never knew that they needed to cover the entire arm for a wrist fracture. You will get well soon esp with so many in prayer for your speedy recovery.

Hey Naimish!
The break was awkward so it's set at bit of an angle! Not on full arm TG! Hope your wife is doing well!

It reminds me of when I had my surgery, a few days beforehand I had dislocated my left elbow. I had no cast but was supposed to have a traction device fitted. I agreed that I could have it on during the surgery so that while I was on the table, they would not be tempted to put my arms by my side! Gio
I like the nails. They match the purple. Hope you don't find it too much extra hassle and get it off soonest.
I love the colour. We will,have to start a campaign to have teal casts 😀. Hope it is not too annoying. I bet getting a bra on is challenging. Keep winning!
Getting bra on is improving my contortion skills I can tell you!!!😂😂😂😂😂
Wow! That does look awkward. I can't quite make out the photo, can you bend your elbow!
Great colour!
Ya can bend the elbow alright Jan but it's just a bit awkward! Could be worse!!!😊
Dx
love the colour and the nails, my sprained ankle is healing very slowly had pet scan today mri Thursday then hopefully a plan of action surgery or chemo. Hope you heal quickly that cast looks pretty awkward. Sending hugs.....carefully of course
It's not too painful at all, I did sprain my ankle years ago and it was much more painful so hope you are OK! Hope the MRI goes well on Thurs!
Dx
Love the colour D, it does look awkward on the photo, hope it's not causing too much pain. Thinking of u. Xx
Hey Millie!
Not painful really which is great! Just a nuisance and can't drive!!!
How are you keeping??
D
That's good news it's not painful. I'm just tired from the chemo. Made an effort tho and been out tonight to see the Ab Fab movie. Wasn't the best but really full of famous people and did make us laugh. Glad I went to see it. It's a lot of effort though.xx
The fatigue is unreal and it's very hard to describe to anyone who hasn't felt it! I was only talking to someone who had breast cancer the other night and we said exactly that! It's like a hoover comes and sucks every bit of energy from every single cell in your body!!! I agree it's a real effort to do anything but it's important for your mental health to try at the same time!!! Don't worry while this is a constant when you are in treatment and for a time afterward it does get better and three months out I can really feel my energy levels rising! Mind yourself and take it easy too!!!
Haven't seen the Ab Fab movie yet but looking forward to it!!!

Hi Dee,
That does look awkward but I had the same colour cast on my leg when I broke a bone in my foot a few years ago so you are in good company!!
