Update from.....Izzy
sKePTiKal:
Well Iz - the pool folks know what they're up against physically... and how to work around that.
On the other hand... I wish I could be a fly on the wall, as they become acquainted with your "Inner Iz-ness"!! LOL...
You're right about new things working out your brain first... that by itself is a good thing, I think. We all need new experiences or challenges... no matter how old we are! Keeps us young.
Redhead Erin:
Oh, (((Izzy,))) I am so sorry for your trouble.
A practical solution for the fruit flies: get one of these

and put a piece of apple in the tray around the bottom. My son thought this up and it works wonders!

Thanks PR,
I might have mentioned that I am one who requires an answer, and to not be left hanging. I telephoned the OT, who my lawyer will hire to set up this 'swim thing', and asked if she had heard from him. Then I explained and she gave me a bunch of informtion, then the names of the pools in the city (involved) so called one and learned more, but had told Debbie await being contacted. I just needed to clear my mind.
Under the circumstances, I can wear white short shorts and a T-sirt, and they have chairs that go through the showers, as mine is padded and would go home wet each time.
That done, it has cleared my brain to think of other matters.
Thank RH Erin
"I have conquered the fruit flies!" she said complacently...from one who has always promised herself to never be complacent.
I try to be SO careful, as my lap is important. It is always there for me, but I slopped some hot soup on it, whipped off the towel covering my legs, applied cold water until the heat went away and ended up with only 2 blisters. One broke, the other is intact and by cracky. It is sore!!
(Lap, in case no one knows, is what I have all the time, but yours disappears when you stand up.)

Izzy, do you have flamawhatchmacallit to put on those burns? Burn cream is what we call it in this house.
If I put that stuff on early, it helps everything heal up quickly.
I put something in your e-mail.
Enjoy: )

Thank you, lighter
I was at Dr.'s yesterday just a Rx visit, but had him look at the broken blister (the other has shrunk back down.) I had the area virtually uncovered from Saturday on, except in bed I had a light dressing to avoid bursting the other blister.
He said it looked good and to keep it uncovered. (I had covered it lightly as I was dressed.) I have to go out to fill my Rxs today---some trips are by car, some just by chair.
This will be easier, as it is the chair trip and less moving and bending for the injured area.
All will be well
I SO enjoyed your email
Love
Iz
P.S.
My Dr. appears human after all. He is now in possession of the Specialist's 25 page report, and I'm sure he is thinking that he was somewhat brutal with me, not referring me to this exact same Specialist, when I asked, because "I was over-doctoring and there would never be a diagnosis for me". He was wrong!!!
hahahaha
I asked today for referrals for an updated x-ray, and a visit with an ENT man, and he was more than happy to oblige!
