OMG! DH tore his rotator cuff on the 8th at work. I got a phone call from the ER that morning. We are currently awaiting the results of the MRI to figure out if he needs surgery.

He has been to the Orthopedic Surgeon once already - he told DH to get the MRI.

DH said that it feels like his arm is just dead weight. He can move it to cut his food or use the mouse on the computer, but can't lift it hardly at all.

And it is his dominant (right) arm!!

He is having a tough time doing so many things.

I am hoping they get him in for sugery SOON!! We have pretty much come to the conclusion that it will need to be done. He also has a bone chip floating around in his shoulder from the accident (a 400+ food cart fell on him at work) so that will need to be removed anyway.

I am going to save this post to have him read when he gets up.
