Jan has only today and tomorrow to go on her latest antibiotic. Her neck muscles and the pins are all the pain she has at this point. The calcium intake and yogurt are continuing right up to the minute the halo comes off! I might let her slack off on the yogurt after the halo comes off but I'm still debating.
I took her to vote on Tuesday at Natcher Elementary. I'm sure a teacher had some explaining to do to her students as they looked at Jan walking the hall. We saw one of Tessa's former teachers and he recognized her and asked about Tessa. When Tessa voted later that same day he asked about Jan.
Then, the wind and rain were terrible on Wednesday! My mother arrived to stay with Jan for the day before it started the worst. She brought a pecan pie and a pumpkin pie with her. She also made supper before she left. It is a good thing Jan didn't get out that day. I went into work the whole day since I knew she'd have company. Her friend that originally cut her hair after the accident dropped by for a touch-up. It was a pretty busy day and she didn't even have to leave the house.
She wants to go grocery shopping today. If the weather holds and the day starts off well, we will go get some more yogurt that she loves so much.
If all goes well, on Valentine's Day we are going to a church function at the Shaker Tavern at South Union. She is a bit worried it will be a long trip but US 68-80 is a nice, smooth four-lane road and it is only 20 minutes away. I think she'll enjoy a night out, around other people.
Here's a picture of the halo and her head from the top. You can see that the left front pin has considerably more threads into the halo than the right front pin by a noticeable margin.
On a sad note, I finally started our taxes. How depressing.
