After Surgery

by Ada on November 14, 2011

Oct 17th I was operated again on my shoulder.  I had to start physical therapy the third day and finally after 3 years I have no pain during and after therapy. And the best news is there is actually movement in my shoulder.  I have still a long road to go but there is a start.

With all that extra time I’ve done a lot off reading. Maeve Binchy, Jodi Piccoult and Chantal van Gastel is one of my latest favorites. Love the books.

I hope to do some knitting in the near future but for now the books will do.

Have a great day

I have been knitting lately

by Ada on September 20, 2011

It’s been a long time before I got back into knitting. Crocheting was easier on my shoulder but now that I finally got the knitting on the go I tried doubleknitting. A Mario scarf to be. Here you can find the free pattern  

Today I went back to the surgeon. After a long time of therapie (very painfull) he is going to operate on my shoulder again. It’s scheduled for oct. 17th. Hopefully the scarf will be finished by then.

A good book

by Ada on March 23, 2011

Lately I’ve done a lot of reading.  This week I read two very good books.

First, Her name was Sarah written by T. de Rosnay. A book about the Vel d’Hiv in France

Second, 1953 written by Rik Launspach. A book about the North Sea Flood

I read throug both in about 3 days, I just couldn’t put them down.

I’ll be reading some more. My shoulder still doesn’t cooperate so I still can’t knit or do much else then read good books.

Quick update

by Ada on September 16, 2010

I know, it’s been a long time since my last post. That’s because things aren’t improving for my shoulder.

I went to another specialist for a second opinion and he told me I got a frozen shoulder after the operation. He gave me a very painfull injection. The pain has gone down because of that. But I’m still using painmeds to sleep at night.

On october 28 I have to go back for an echo of my shoulder and he will most likely inject the calcivication at that time too.

I hope to post pictures in the upcoming weekend of some old finished projects.

Have a great weekend!

Update on my shoulder

by Ada on July 30, 2010

It´s been two months since I had surgery on my shoulder and it still isn´t going to well. You could say it´s worse then before I had the surgery. I hardly can move my shoulder. Cleaning the house is a task that I let my husband handle. I can get the laundry down stairs throwing it down the stairs. And he get´s to do the faulding.

Today I went to my physical therapist and they made an echo. It´s still the calcium deposit in the rotator cuff that´s causing all the problems. I have no idea how it´s going to continue from now on.

At least i get the change to improve my watermarble skills.

Here´s a picture of a marble I did last week.
