I must admit my bark ranger duties have sadly been neglected the last couple of weeks but I do have excellent staff so I know they have been keeping running while I have been looking after Mom. Today Mom went to see and orthopedic surgeon and had a cortisone shot in her knee so now she should be able to walk a little easier. Mom has been having shots in her knees since her early 20's and they always work well. The big decision now will be which park to visit first - maybe we convince the Mom to visit all of them - we have a lot of catching up to do :)
Yay I hope your mom heals up well!!
ReplyDeleteWe think the other rangers will understand -after all, the boss deserves a vacation too. HOpe those shots help Mom a LOT.

I hope that appointments end with good news and the shot helps your momma to be painfree for a while :o)
ReplyDeleteI'm glad your mom is going to be feeling better soon! I know she misses her walks with her boys.
ReplyDeleteYou have to make your bark ranger rounds, pals. Check on all that is growing in your parks! I am glad your mom is walking a little easier now.

ReplyDeleteJust in time for the arrival of Fall! (Cooler temps always inspire us to hike)
ReplyDeleteHope mommas knee feels better. Your ranger duties are very important
ReplyDeleteLily & Edward
Ouch, that sounds painful. My gramma has some knee trouble but the shots haven't helped her at all.
ReplyDeletehoping you are back to your walkies in no time!!!!
ReplyDeleteWondering if the humidity is making your Mom not feel great?

We hope you got to see many of your parks Reilly! But probably it's too much to ask your mom to see every one of them in one day!
ReplyDeleteHope you can get back to the great outdoors soon. You have such lovely parks there.
ReplyDeleteMy mum said that the shots only helped her knees for a while so she had both of them replaced (at one time) back in 1996. Until she started using a wheelchair she used to fall a lot (thanks to her muscle disease, bol) and was damaging the artificial knees, but since she has been in a wheelchair (except when she had her eye injury) her knees have been better -- if she was not in the wheelchair, and kept falling, she probably would have had to have the artificial knees replaced by now -- the normal lifetime for them is 10-15 years!!
ReplyDeleteThat's a lot of shots! Mom's doctor will only give her two in the same spot, but now her knee went out again so she doesn't know what to do. Hope your mom is feeling better! Love Dolly
ReplyDeleteYea!!! We hope it helps your mom tons!!!
ReplyDeleteCammie!
Woot Woot to Mom feeling better!
