Smile Pre op Tuesday
Hey guys. I go for pre op on Tuesday. W/C hasn't cancelled yet. I'm getting nervous now. Surgery is scary. The waiting is driving me nuts. How was everyone's weekend?

Thank you for keeping me in your prayers. I had left a message in the injured workers forum. I had my anterior and posterior ligaments completely torn. There was some damage to tendons too. They are going to do Ankle Reconstruction Surgery. I will be in a cast for 6 weeks, a boot for 6 weeks and a brace for 4 weeks. Long recovery, but I should be at about 90% in about 4 months. Right now I walk like Igor from "Young Frankenstein"..LOL! My foot swells everyday to the point that I can't wear normal shoes. This happened in December and I still have to pack my ankle in ice every night.
Yeah, I'm expecting W/C to cancel, but I'm preparing the house in case they don't. My hubby doesn't cook very well so I've been cooking and storing food. My kiddies are going to drop alot of weight..LOL!

Does anyone have a good recipe for Roast in Red Gravy?

RE: Pre op Tuesday
Hi Copchick,

Good luck and prayers going up for you for a successful surgery AND that WC won't cancel at the last minute!
Red gravy eh? I'm from the north, and apparently I don't even know what red gravy is!! I'm assuming it's tomato based gravy? I'm a great cook, but sorry, I can't help you out on this one. Maybe if i had it once i could though....wanna invite me over to dinner after you figure it out ????? Sounds yum to me.
Prayers, LillySmile

RE: Pre op Tuesday
I dont do red gravy....but I do have several good recipes for freeze ahead meals if you like chicken......or you can do it with beef......boil chicken(or beef) in crockpot overnite with 2 taco seasonings packets....in morning take meat out and debone....use shreaded meat to make enchaladas take corn tortillias and dunk into meat juice till tender(if juice is hot this takes just a second) roll meat a bit of chopped onion and chedder cheese onto a roll and line into a foil baking dish cover with red enchalda sause if beef, green if chicken top with cheese,foil it,cool it and freeze....take the rest of the meat and make tacos for the nite you cook or make several freeze ahead meals out of this....this is a family favorite....

You'll be Fine Cop Chick!! I just had Major Ear Construction 10 Days ago, and when the Dr. started to Describe the Surgery to Me I told Her, "I don't Care what You do when I'm Out, as long as I Wake Up, and will be able to Hear Some Day Soon!" You'll do Fine, and I have every Confidence things will go Well!!Wink

RE: Pre op Tuesday
Oh I'm so sorry to hear this CC Sad I guess I didn't realize this happens so often...I really am sorry they did this to you. If you have an attorney call him and give him a kick in the butt if you have to. You shouldn't have to go through this. Staying in my prayers you are Smile
