They did not do surgery on me. They did though call me back often for x rays to make sure it was healing properly. Just wait it out. It really does get better. But oh my those first few weeks were hell. It was my left arm that broke. Fortunately I am right handed. I had a lady come in to bathe me. My husband helped me dress. I wanted to sleep in a chair. MY husband insisted I lay with him in bed. He did though get me a pillow I could rest my arm on that really helped. <o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif'>Gentle hugs,<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif'>Becky <o:p></o:p></span></p><div><div style='border:none;border-top:solid #E1E1E1 1.0pt;padding:3.0pt 0in 0in 0in'><p class=MsoNormal><b><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif'>From:</span></b><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif'> NFB-Blind-Crafters <nfb-blind-crafters-bounces@nfbnet.org> <b>On Behalf Of </b>Sonya Coulombe via NFB-Blind-Crafters<br><b>Sent:</b> Saturday, June 27, 2026 2:12 PM<br><b>To:</b> List for Blind Crafters and Artists <nfb-blind-crafters@nfbnet.org><br><b>Cc:</b> Sonya Coulombe <sonya.coulombe@gmail.com><br><b>Subject:</b> [NFB-Blind-Crafters] Successful Saturday and some news<o:p></o:p></span></p></div></div><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><div id=mail-editor-reference-message-container><div id=mail-editor-reference-message-container><p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:black'>Hi!</span> <o:p></o:p></p><div><p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:black'>As some of you know, I had a bad fall June 16 and I broke the humerus bone of my right arm, close to the shoulder.
