[QUOTE="Star*, post: 406501, member: 4964"] Marg - They gave her the option of a halo or surgery. Halo said the doctor - would take over a year for this type of injury to knit itself - and be very painful - emphasis on very. No guarantees on proper healing and then there was the artery collapse question. Second option was surgery. Recovery time was six months, with pain free feeling in less than three weeks. She said the immediate relief was felt the day after surgery, however like we all stated it was the morphine talking. She's home now, and in quite a bit of pain. However the fact that she can walk at all to us? Amazing. Her poor head is black and blue, purple and green, yellow - behind her ears and her scalp is black and purple. She had an orange sized knot on her head that took two full days to subside. We're told the blackness is not bruising behind her ears, but rather the blood from her knot. It will eventually dissipate and be gone. The scar on her neck from the opening for surgery I'm told is very painful. I would suspect from being held open by the fork things during surgery and stretching? (Told you if it's not a family member I can watch all day - family member? Queasy) Reason for becoming a trucker and not an ambulance person. As far as that blonde nephew of yours? No need to remind me......lol. I remember. :flirtysmile3:(slaps hand over eyes and does quick math - okay 37 is NOT young enough to be my son - I'm safe) hehe. [/QUOTE]
