I'm the luckiest person ever because lesasoja wrote me a sleeping Mikey ficlet complete with adorable Gerard which makes my heart sing with warm happiness. Thank you both!

James had a hospital appointment this morning, it was for first thing so we dropped off Corey at the school, which thankfully has a breakfast club, and were at the hospital for 9. His nerve test showed it may be his neck that's causing the clawing problem with his hand, but we won't know more about that until March, when he has an appointment with the neurologist. The hand doctor did have a suggestion though. They brought one of the head hand doctors in, and after a discussion it was decided it would be better if James gets his wrist fused again. Because his bones are feeble ( the doctors words ) they can't use a plate, but will instead insert a rod through his finger bones and up into his wrist, forcing it into a straighter position, which would allow more movement of his fingers, and hopefully less pain. So, it's a case of waiting for that referral now.

While I was waiting for James to have his x-rays I met a very cool guy. I always take a book with me because waiting in hospitals is boring, plus, I'm not a great casual chatter. But it was only this guy and me in the waiting room, and he obviously loved to chat, so the book was put away. He'd just had a cast off so was making these noises as he washed his arm for the first time in four months. Very suggestive noises, which he realised, laughed at, then told me a story about his case worker and how she made noises like that when eating chocolate. He then demonstrated those noises, very loudly *g* So we talked while waiting, and then he walked back to the other unit with us, and actually introduced himself with a handshake before we went. He was a lovely person to spend time with.

ETA: New season of America's Next Top Model starts on Monday. GLEE!

Gah, I didn't realise. I'll take the link out and see if he'll unflock later.

Sorry :(

When you say the new season of ANTM, are you talking about TV? *confused* Cycle 10 isn't starting so soon, is it?

[turps33.livejournal.com]

I am! Living was just promoting it. I was surprised too because the last series finished not that long back, but apparently they're showing cycle 10 early.

I thought it was going to start on February 10. Damn strike. TAR isn't going to film until April or March, we'll be lucky if we get the new season by June.

OK, that rod just sounds painful. Owee.

it does! Could this be true for the USA too? Or am I getting happy for no reason?

[turps33.livejournal.com]

Well, this is cycle 9 that's starting, so we're behind you guys. I suspect you're getting happy too soon :(

[turps33.livejournal.com]

It really does. He's had his wrist fixed before, but then they just fused the bone with staples. The rod is something else again. I cringe thinking about it.

That rod thing sounds painful and a bit icky. Poor James! And I do hope the neurologist will finally have some answers for you!

[raynedanser.livejournal.com]

When Lee had the rod from his finger through his wrist - is that the same thing, ya think?

[ephemera.livejournal.com]

poor James! That sounds pretty horrid, although hopefully it'll stop the pain, and then the neurologist will be helpful later.

[turps33.livejournal.com]

He's really not having a good time of it at all at the moment.

[turps33.livejournal.com]

Yeah, i was cringing when they were describing it. But hopefully it will help.
