You'll be stronger if you survive all this.

High Five!

Pain sucks but it sure wakes you up. Drugs are good for very short term (day or two only). Course I'm never suffered horrible 3rd degree burns over 90% of my body or anything but barring that I don't plan to ever take drugs for more than a day or two.

Think of the positives: 1) It went well. 2) It happened pre-post peak. Imagine if this had happened post-peak or if your wrist surgery didn't go well. Then you'd be screwed as far as home tasks, gardening, chopping wood, etc.

2 days tops! Hopefully I'm better tomorrow... it hurts.. no high fives!

Modern medicine isn't all bad, just $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$

My bro's buddy fell off a ladder in December, hurt his knee... he's over $100K now

I have broken my left wrist 4 times now, I was told the last time by a doctor that if i break it again (or perhaps just in the future) I will need metal pins and perhaps a plate due to all of the fracturing.

I can hear it from time to time cracking when I rotate it. So nothing by sympathy from me.

Sorry for your disappointment, jay. We kid around, but I would prefer your goals were attained. I'm sure Frank doesn't mind. We're talking about a subject that he brought up. BTW, my son was one of four at his college ROTC program to get a full Navy scholarship. He's thrilled, I'm thrilled. There were hundreds of applicants. He wants to be a nuclear technician on a aircraft carrier or a nuclear powered submarine. Assuming the world doesn't fall apart in the next three years he'll go in as an officer. When I think of what a numskull I was at his age, I'm amazed.

I fell several hundred feet down a talus field the afternoon of Dec 3 1993. Eleven broken bones including what the orthopedic surgeon said was the worst Maisonneuve fracture he'd ever seen. The only thing holding my right foot on was the skin. It took 5.5 hours to pin me back together. I was in physical therapy for 18 months before I could walk without crutches.
I know about pain, and I know the importance of PAIN RELIEF.

Pain lasted 48hrs... Haven't taken anything since Thursday night -- all good now except for some tenderness... Don't have a cast, just a splint type thing...want to unwrap it and look at the $20k/$30K damage?

Bring on the bills!

I broke four ribs at the sawmill when I was 40. I'm fifty now. It took forever to heal, and hurt like heck. I'm sorry for you....

$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('Shannymara', 'I') had a tooth extracted Wednesday. I have dry socket. They gave me opiates, which I am supposed to take every 4-6 hours. They only relieve the pain for 3 hours. It's pretty bad pain. I'm having a hard time being nice to my son.

$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('Shannymara', '')$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('PenultimateManStanding', 'Y')ou could tell him about it and say that mommy will be nice again real soon. I'm sure that would work and it would give him the chance to be understanding and feel the importance of his own attitudes. A growing experience.
