Update on Shelly

October 30, 2020 by Shelly

Hello everyone!

Here’s a brief update on what happened and why I’ve been MIA. Regarding the TCC Blog…we’re not going anywhere! We’ve been blogging since 2009 and will continue to do so. Life is life and emergencies happen. Once I get through this we’ll get back to normal again here on the blog. Here’s an update.

I had a terrible accident the end of September. I fell outside while gardening and fractured both bones in my arm, dislocated my wrist, damaged both major nerves, fractured my thumb and if that wasn’t enough I formed a large blood clot in my carpal tunnel. I ended up in the hospital having surgery to repair all the damage.

I’m home now but having major issues with swelling, nerve damage, severe radiating nerve pain, etc. It’s been extremely difficult getting through each day, The pain just never stops. I have a long recovery road ahead of me. At this time I only have use of one hand & arm which means a lot of time-consuming hen pecking to type. Plus, when I sit up the damaged arm & hand throb in almost unbearable pain…and that’s with heavy duty pain medications in me.  UGH what a painful nightmare this has been and I have 6-10 weeks of recovery time to go, Hopefully no more complications.

Jenelle got a new job that she couldn’t refuse and started on her new career path last month plus home schooling 2 kids has kept her MIA most of the time too. In addition, my mom and Jenelle are helping Sam out with my medical care and trust me I need a lot right now.

Hopefully I can start tolerating an hour a day online to get caught up on blog posts, reviews, and giveaways. We have several to launch plus we may have to re-run a few from early October.

Please be patient as we get caught up and get rolling again.  Thank you to those who sent nice messages and emails. To those few people who sent rude and self-centered emails…shame on you and you know who you are. Life happens, emergencies happen. Health and family first.

    I am so sorry you are going thru this. I am continuing to pray for your recovery. Take your time. We will be here when you return. If there is anything we can do, let us know. I am sure you can tell who the faithful followers are and I am sure most all of us will help in anyway we can if you can use outside help. Congratulation on the new job for Jenelle.
