Woe Is Me

[mrs_overall]

I have been wearing the horrid neck brace for nearly 3 weeks now.
I had an appointment with a neurosurgeon today and he told me I will have to wear if for another 6 to 12 weeks. It is driving me insane as I cannot wash my hair and can only eat food that is cut up to pieces the size of a sultana. I also have a dental problem that needs sorting but there is no way I can go to the dentist.
He showed me a picture of the scan and I didn't realise that my vertebrae (C2, second from the top) is actually fractured in TWO places - one on the wing bit and one on the bit right next to the spinal cord.
I do know how very lucky I am to still be alive, but this brace is absolute torture.
Moan over with!

Gness, let me think about your kind offer to wash my hair.
No.

Tonyav, I hate cats!
