Hi Michaela! I am very happy for you that the x-rays were spectacular! That is so good in the long run! It is not only very encouraging for you but for your medical team as well - and that is not to be underestimated! I really hope that your reaction to the screws sorts itself out without additional surgery! I hope the antibiotics help! Thank you very much for letting us know how things go - but please never feel obliged to do so: your strength and health are the most important thing now, always take your time! Thinking of you and your family! Wishing you all the best! Susanne
Yes! Those are moments we never ever forget! And the gratitude for those moments is like a huge wave of light! Thank you very much for sharing this, Michaela! I wish you and your friend a lovely time together! I remember friends or family coming for surprise visits from several hours away and we planned to do and see things - and then we ended up chatting and laughing for a whole day at the kitchen table! It's so worth it! Kindest regards and very best wishes for all of you travelling this special journey with you right now! Susanne
Hi Michaela! Thank you very much for your recent Instagram updates! We have hospital, too, on Wednesday. Since it's in Europe there's ample time afterwards to really wish you the best of success! What do you do when you can't follow your usual interests? Do you read, watch series or movies, listen to music, chat, write? I remember that I used procedure times to sleep a lot and to catch up with family, lots of quality time and talking. Also consciously doing nothing and letting my mind drift or looking out of a window for hours at trees and birds and squirrels can actually be nice! All the best wishes for the x-rays and the check-up and the talks and the surgery dates! Susanne
Hi Michaela, Thank you very much for the newest update. - I am sending all my thoughts and wishes for you that traction is a huge success! - I also hope very much that you get PT before the surgery! Pre OP PT is one of the most helpful things that exist! - If your final date for OP turns out to be around X-mas/ New Year make sure there's nevertheless enough team there and enough physio for mobilisation during the holidays! We try to avoid a succession of holidays whenever possible. - The nice thing is relationships and care between the holidays can be a very nice and personal experience! - This sounds horrible but it's actually a very good thing: Doctors and surgeons (usually) love complicated rare cases. That's what they studied for. That keeps their work interesting. It's like an extra treat for them, a special challenge. So you're doing them a favour, too! You are like a "professional gift". - the last bit also makes them extra awake and attentive which always helps. Kindest regards and best wishes! Susanne
Hi Michaela, I just read your Instagram post. If you have trouble with internal antibiotics maybe externally applied antibiotics are an option? I have several times had problems where bone wounds around endoprothesis didn't close/heal and stayed infected. Since I have bad reactions to the type of antibiotics necessary they applied the antibiotic locally. (I had to see the doctor daily for two weeks.) It eventually helped. Took some time though and the local application wasn't pleasant. I really hope your head manages the situation without additional surgery! Thinking of you and wishing you the very best! Susanne
She is so freaking funny. I wish I will meet with her, from Oxnard California to Michigan.
Nothing heals us more then the love of family and friends. I'm so happy for you.
I couldn't agree more! Thank you, Ruthie!!
