VanillaSkyGirl 6 #33 December 16, 2009 Quote Well, Valinda takes me in tomorrow to get my right shoulder put back together. It's six weeks in a sling, six months in rehab, and hoping I ever get to jump again. Wish me luck. It really sucks being stuck on the ground. John, I haven't been around much, so I didn't see this in time, but I wanted to send my best to you. I hope that it all went smoothly, and that you are recovering well. As for you and skydiving...well, I know that you will be back in the sky. I have no doubt of that! Big, yet soft hugs to you, my dear friend. I look forward to the next time that I get to see you and Valinda, again. Please send my love to your family, and have an incredible holiday season!

jimmytavino 16 #44 December 16, 2009 good deal John... i'm 4 years post surgery, same shoulder.... the pain is gone.... but the repair was not 'as effective' as we ( the doctor and i ) had expected.... and my reach has been limited....( though i CAN get to my slider and my toggles..) So I DO hope that your results will be better.... stay in the sling, as directed, and adhere to the PT regimen, which should begin soon....even if it's slow going,,,,at first...and it hurts..... I was warned that staying Completely immobilized, while tempting, will not bode well for the recovery. no pain no gain. Pt ( stretches, sideward flexes, pulleys etc ) 3 to 5 times a day. and IN the sling...otherwise... as time goes by, you'll develop the best position(s) for sleeping and each day will get better.... enjoy the holidays. jmy Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
