I've said before that knitters, as a group, are the most generous and thoughtful people I know. They are always there to help out: if you doubt me, search "knitting charities" and see how they have answered so many calls.
Knitters also work one-on-one, sending friends goodies when the mood strikes them. Proof:
Kathy sent this drawstring bag "just" because I "took a tumble." I told her, and I'll tell you, there were more than a few tears fall when I saw it. It's so pretty, and it has shades of purple, and I'm not sure exactly how it will be used, but how big-hearted can someone be?
Then:
Camille and her sons sent Colorforms! She sent them hoping they'd speed my recovery along, and I am having fun with them today. Saturday, hockey, football, Dr Pepper, Colorforms --- it's a good day.
I finally got a wrap / brace /compression thingy for my ribs, and it does make a difference comfort-wise. I've been in a lot of pain this week for some reason, so I got it in the nick of time. I decided not to try to go to the doctor; there were X-rays at the ER, there isn't really much more he could tell me or do for me. There's a significant part of me that wishes, just for the sake of a prescription for painkillers, I had gone.
If you read Kathy's blog, you know that her husband also has broken ribs. A Fall trend, maybe? *
*"Fall" referring to the season, not the action.

You are most welcome. What is the type of compression thing you got? Fireman was initially happy with the drug for sleep, but its making him itchy . I'd likehim to get the brace. Can you email me when you have time. Was it something we could get without a prescription at walgreens??
