I talked with the nurse today and I am off work until at least May 11th - taking family medical leave.  Actually she said the 14th but for sure I won't be able to until I see the Dr for my appt on May 11th.  I asked if half days could be worked out until the 14th and she said not until you see him on the 11th.  Wow - wasn't expecting that one - I thought I would at least get to go back some half days or so but I need to follow what the Dr has said.  I know I need to rest and my workload can wait.  Actually it is good cuz I won't have to see the bloodsucker with Sarah either.  My nurse practitioner saw me today and is decreasing my antidepressant since I am doing so well! She says this relationship with Sarah and the bloodsucker won't last but keep my distance until then - and I will.  I had myself put on the call list to see my therapist since I had to cancel because of my surgery. Since I'm off I can see her anytime this week  - I hope they call cause I could sure talk - if not I guess it can wait until the 17th. Until then - Drs. orders - rest, rest, rest!  I go for more physical therapy tomorrow and I am excited to see my progress - I have been working hard on getting that knee straight!
