Today Claudia had her first doctor´s appointment after her surgery. The doctor liked how it was all, but she has to be in relative rest for at least 2 more months.
She has to go to see him on July 5th with a new Xray. The doctor told her exactly what she could and couldn´t do so it seems she will have to behave better.
I hope she takes care of herself. I don´t trust her as she is a workaholic. Last week, when I went to see her, she was knitting. I told her to ask the doctor whether she could do it. She forgot to ask so maybe she will knit until her neck hurts again
Claudia is very intelligent for certain things. Not for taking care of herself though.

She has enough help. And I could help her too. But she is stubborn.

I tell her and plead. But she is a grown woman. There´s not much I can do.

She called me again and promised she would do no more than what the doctor had said.

I can relate to being a workaholic, when I twisted my ankle the doctor said "stay off it and wear this brace." I toss the brace in a drawer and went to work the next day, but I did sit on my butt to work, laying tile.

People should tread their bodies with more respect

She's like my daughter, in some ways. Mari Lyn is an RN who takes care of sick children. But, when SHE gets sick, she keeps right on working!

If she want to recover well, she should follow the doctor´s advice. I tell her that every day.

There are situations when it is better we ask what can be done as I remember I used to avoid so many activities which later I came to know there was no harm in doing them

i guess she's bored and restless so she started knitting. maybe she can adjust her position, like on a recliner, so her neck and arms are relaxed.
but you're right, all activities, big and small, should be consulted with the doctor first.

I sure hope she takes better care of herself. I know for her two months seems long but the way I see time fly by that will be gone before she knows it.

She needs that rest. It is her chance of getting well.

I hope that Claudia realizes that she needs to slow down at her work pace since she needs to realize that she is not an iron woman.

Your concern is right for her. You may regularly talk to her about her health issues. May be she don't ignore her health

She is doing all she should. And I call her every day.
