March 26th was the last time I mentioned something about my cracked ribs and I wanted to post a happy update. They have been feeling pretty good lately. So much in fact I kinda forgot they were ever hurt. Unfortunately this is not a happy update. Last night I was reaching up to grab something from the top shelf in the closet. I could barely reach it so I kept stretching and stretched too far. After I grabbed what I wanted I knew right away what I had done. I got a reminder, I still have to be cautious.  Now, when I take a deep breath or have a cough attack I feel pain. I actually feel them clicking.

Last time I was at the doctor I asked why they are taking so long to heal. He explained, imagine you glued your ribs together and every time you cough or do your treatment you are pulling them apart, not giving the glue time to completely dry. I think I need to invest in some Krazy glue! Good news is, I was still able to take our dog Rosie for a walk and walk on the treadmill today.
