Surgery on Tuesday

Recommended Posts

Give your physical therapists hell, that'll get you up in the sky again!! Work them hard!! Best wishes for a successful surgery and speedy recovery!
So I try and I scream and I beg and I sigh
Just to prove I'm alive, and it's alright
'Cause tonight there's a way I'll make light of my treacherous life
Make light!

John MItchell, air-traffic-controller. A skydiver barely stable. Gentlemen, we can rebuild him. We have the technology. We have the capability to build the world's first bionic skydiver. John Mitchell will be that man. Better than he was before. Better, stronger, faster.:D

Thanks for the vibes and wishes, everyone. We're leaving in a few minutes to go get it done. It's the old "torn off rotator cuff and tears in the bicep" thing they're patching up. A lot of us have had that or worse, so I really can't complain. It'll just be a long time to heal, but I sure have a lot of support. Thanks. :)

I had my left shoulder scoped a few years ago. Surgery was an out patient thing. In in the morning, out that afternoon. When they tell you NO movement of that arm, they mean NO, NO movement. Don't even flex it. And for gods sake, be careful and don't "flinch". It hurts more than words can describe. When you start rehab, understand that the pain is a good thing, to a point. You're trying to regain range of motion so do as they say. The finger climb and the pulley are the ones you'll love to hate. I don't know how long you've been injured, but after it was all done, I wondered why I waited so long. It really is better that it was years before the damage. If I could afford it, I would have the right shoulder done. Good luck and let us know how the you're doing.
