Not that I'm a posting machine like a few of you, but I may be offline for very short while. Yesterday morning I broke my humerous clean in two playing futbol (soccer). I'm scheduled for surgery tomorrow at 330P then I'll be better than new!

    I stayed pretty calm. The realization that it was more than just a crack probably would've won me the prize. :)

    Thanks for the kind words, everyone. :o

    Since you're going to be in a cast, won't you be on here more?

    I've been on disability for a last few weeks due to a work related injury. I'm about to go blind from being on the computer so much. I'm actually looking forward to going back to work soon.

    Best of luck.

    I had bone surgery done on my fore arm about 3 years ago. It hurts like hell for a few hours after the operation. I swear I could feel the tissue that they stripped off the bone moving back into place. After that it really isn't too bad. Healing time is much faster then a cast and the major pain is gone by the second day. Good luck.

    Surgery went well. I'm at home, doing well. I'll be out of the ace bandage today and doing some light exercises for my shoulder and elbow. Save for sleeping, I should be out of my sling by tomorrow or Saturday.

    Thanks again for all the kind words and thoughts.

    Neither. I was sprinting to some open space to receive a long, open-field, cross and clipped a player while looking over my shoulder for the ball. :o
