Carols shoulder surgery March 2019

Over the last several years, Carol has been having problems with pain in her right shoulder. After pursuing physical therapy and massage, it was determined that the only way to resolve Carol's shoulder pain issue was by having the problem surgically repaired. The problem it turned out was a torn rotator cuff. Fortunately, Kaiser has one of the premier Orthopedic surgeons on staff in the Sacramento area that among other patients, works on Sacramento Kings Players.

Of course, one of the problems with having such a renowned surgeon on the case, means that the doctor has many clients who are waiting for the kind of relief he can provide. After many months of waiting, in March of this year, it was Carol's turn to have the surgery done. Carol was in and out of the surgical center the same day, but then the long rehab process was to begin. For over a month, Carol recuperated at home with the aid of flowers from many well wishers as well as her new found friend the 'Ice man' a machine that pumps super chilled water through a wrap that goes around her shoulder. Most importantly Carol had the love and care of her two four legged nurse maids, Charlie and Rosie.

Even after a couple weeks, Carol was willing to venture out of the house to see what she had been missing in the outside world. One of our visits was to check out a typewriter exhibit just across Mather field road MACC (Mather Arts Counsel Center).

After about 5 weeks Carol was back to work at Cal-Fire on limited duty and loving the pain relief she had after recovering from the surgery.

Safe Travels all!
