My doctor knows about it. I wore a sling when I fell in the hospital a year ago I fractured my clavicle, and my collarbone now sticks out in the middle, and I damaged my shoulder. And I have had a shoulder surgery date and a doctor didn’t hold up to his end of the bargain but I was in the hospital, so I understand why he stopped the surgery. But now I have to look forward to still having the surgery done. I will start talking to the surgeon on 23 April. My neck is feeling much better and able to hold it up more and more every day. Thanks for caring and the hugs.🤗

I thought I’d give an update. I am out of my neck brace have been for a few weeks now at first it was really hard to do because I’m so used to have worn it. But I’m holding my head up on my own. I have my days that I still lean off to the left side when is stiff and my shoulders hurt, but I am holding it up on my own. I am doing well. My therapist thinks it’s great because he’s been concentrating on my shoulder more than my neck and he sees a lot of progress on my own and he’s very proud of me. I guess I’m pretty proud of myself because it took a lot of practice and a lot of working on the muscles to be able to hold my head up. But that’s one thing that the surgeon told me to be able to get my shoulder surgery he has to see me being able to hold my head up on my own so I’ve got that down and I still have 23 days to keep working on it before I see him and four more times to see the physical therapist. I just thought I’d let you guys know that I’m doing better and I should’ve posted a week ago.
