removeable limbs

In his great design , I do wonder why god didnt give us arms and legs that were removeable and replaceable . Heathers legs are finding life a little hard right now shes struggling more and more each day with her walking . Its horrible to watch.
And .. I have had a return of the dreaded carpal tunnel syndrome . I had an operation about 6 years ago for it and thought it was gone . One of the niggles of pregnancy Id forgotten about . Its the strangest feeling to wake in the night thinking there is someone in your bed only to find its your own lifeless and numb arm !
It would be far more convenient if i could hang my arms on the door at night where they didnt get in the way !

Its nice to know that for me it will probably only be a temporary thing and can be helped with another small operation after the birth if i need it . But for H this is a sign of things to come . We have been toying with the idea of power chair for her and the physios have said they will back it up etc so that may well be something we look into before the baby arrives . Cos i dont have enough to think about already clearly .. I shall add it to the never ending list !

Its a sunny weekend in Essex , Im off to watch Dave play cricket later and picnic in the sunshine with a book for an hour or so as the carer is here too .
