I am still down with a broken ankle and then my computer went kaput so I have not been checking in and I see I have missed a lot. Hubby fixed my computer but the ankle is still giving me fits. I can only be up in the wheelchair just so long. I plan to catch up soon. Have not heard yet how my two quilts did at the fair where they are on exhibit. Probably not well since no one has told me anything. Sigh. I will be back full force soon so happy quilting to you all!

Take Care of yourself!! I miss your posts :)

Sorry to hear about the ankle. Hopefully you're feeling better soon! :D

You take care of that ankle. Were not going anywhere, we will still be here when you get better.

Hope you recover quickly.

get well soon .

Take care and just concentrate on getting better.

That's the beauty of the internet, no matter where we are we are still there!!! Hope you ankle gets better, don't rush the walking, it is better you let it heal nicely!!

Take care.

hello, take care of yourself and pop in when you can,

hugs hugs

Hope you recover soon ! Good thing you don't need your ankle to participate on the board.

Keep that ankle elevated :) Glad your puter is back on track. Hope you're feeling much better real soon.

Hugs! I miss you, so get well soon!

I hope you recover quickly and get back to "living" again!!!

Take care Franie. The reason that you can't be up too long is because that ankle needs to be elevated above your heart. I think that if your DH rigged up a board with a rope and a pulley on one end then strapped your leg to it then rigged up a pole on the back of your wheelchair that had an extension going out over your head a ways and some pulleys on it you could tie your leg up high enough to sit on your computer or at your sewing machine. LLLLLL OH LOL
Get a good mental image of that implanted in your mind!!! LOL Remember, laughter is good for you. I could maybe draw up some plans if you want.

Take care of yourself, first. We NEVER go away. lol lol

RaptureReady's reply was good. I would also suggest when the doctor rigs it up he puts a motor on it so it would do it automatically. Say, maybe we could all use that for a good exercise session. Let's see - both legs, both arms and now we will have to think of how to do the middle. I really do hope the pain gets better and you recover soon.

Do what the doctors tell you! You ankle can be a nuisance
after it heals.

It's hard to keep a quilter down too long!. Been doing any hand sewing? I miss seeing your post and your beautiful quilts! Hope you are able to get around soon! :thumbup: :D

Glad to hear from you. Take time to heal and don't push, I know it's hard,but you;ll be glad in the end, no relapses.

Glad your computer is fixed, missed seeing you here.
Hope your ankle heals fast and you can get back to normal. Welcome back. :D :D :D
