I do! They didn't have adequate can openers back then, I guess.

Afternoon everyone...I have returned from my doctor appointment and I am pleased for now...I liked the doctor a lot. He was easy to talk to and had a sense of humor to boot!!!
After looking at the x-rays from last April and the ones from last month he agreed that the fracture was in fact greater now. He said that I should or it would have been best to have had an x-ray about a month from my initial fall that way we could have seen if the larger fracture was shortly after or if it was gradually getting larger....if it was after the fall it could have healed this way but if it is getting larger still then that could indicate that it is now completely healed. So he is having me to get an MRI of my upper and lower spine...that way he can tell for sure if it is healed or not.
He was telling me the procedures that are used for correcting this type of fracture which is...they insert a needle into the fracture and inject an acrylic bone cement which stregnthens the fracture from further damage...I told him...lets not go there right now!!!! LOL
I did tell him that I need to be OK for our August trip to Disney World...LOL
So that is my report for now until I get the MIR...the hospital will call me to schedule that soon I hope!!!!
Thank you all for your thoughts, prayers and concern...You all are the best group of friends in the world!!!!
Love you all...
Glad you liked the doctor as that is so important. Sounds like he explained things well, and I hope the MRI goes well and you won't need surgery of any kind again. Praying for complete healing for you.

Me, too! I can remember playing them at school, sitting outside on a stoop. This was during lunch hour after we had eaten.

CEK, here is hoping that the fracture is healed and no further action is necessary...then we can celebrate big time.
In the meantime, we continue to pray and think positive thoughts.
Thank you Eastcoast...I am keeping my fingers crossed. Your positive thoughts are appreciated more than you know...
