I"m sorry to hear about your arm, Susan. I hope it heals quickly.
When I broke my leg, I used a coat hanger to scratch. I'm no doctor, but I don't see anything wrong with sticking that down the cast, as long as you can get it out, and you don't press on the bone.

Jorg Pure speculation here, bit I'm thinking the confines of a cast would be a great place for a scratch to get infected, and hard to see and treat before it got out of hand ... or leg. Never had to wear a cast, thank you Lord.

Exactly right Jrc. Also it's apparently possible to damage the cast.

Get well soon Susan. That has to be aggravating to try to do chores and stuff with that cast!

With the work that you have been doing ... I know that the arm is probably slowing you down. Perhaps you could hire a temp secretary .... to take Adrians place until he returns!  Take the funding out of Adrians whistle allowance or sell off a few from his bucket!

I'm not sure what Adrian would think if I raided his whistle bucket. It could get ugly.
Adrian is flying back on 19 March.

Adrian is flying back on 19 March. And flying away again on 20 March. Ignore Jim and leave those whistle buckets alone!

Thanks for your prayers. My arm seems fine but I'll know more when I go to the hospital on Tuesday.
