McGill McGot Him Again… Mikie is Down...

[Racer X]

Mikie, didn’t they send you home with one of these? Useful item...even glow in the dark!

Oh, and these are helpful too if you can still find them at Costco $30. I’m recovering from surgery so I’m telling you first hand. Much cooler looking than a cane and adjustable too. I would use one to push the wall so I could get out of bed.

Man!
Believe it or not... I left it hanging on the ER gurney when I left. I think Cathy did it on purpose...

Hey Buddy!
Well...
Cathy has been a tough task master. She has been forcing a lot of water down me to stay extremely hydrated, which in turn forces me to get up on a regular basis and go to the dang bathroom! Doc says I can’t hurt myself so that means just grunting through the pain to regain full range of motion.

I can gently apply about 80% of body weight on my right leg but need a walker for any mobility.

My right side took the beating. I’m bruised from my right shoulder, down my right scapula and rib cage on my back halfway down to my waist.

The right knee just plain hurts. Never going to be the same. Going to require a Cortisone Shot to get some kind of fluid mobility.

My concern is my right shoulder out at the tip of my clavicle just inside of the shoulder joint. Feels like soft tissue damage and raw nerve ouchies like tearing pins and needles when I lift my arm up above my shoulder.

I went to church today. Tough sitting in a chair for two hours but glad I went.
Came home and passed out for 2 1/2 hours. Checking out the Tour de France Stage 12 now!

Doc says she will see me in 30 Days but I’m confident that I will already be ready to go back to work and maybe getting a little cycle time on something with wheels.
Thanks for asking @Tom the Bomb !

Thanks for the update Mikie! Sorry you’re in pain, but glad the Mrs is staying on you about water intake.
I’ll ride Pinos mañana and give her a talking to, she’ll be on her best behavior when you get back to shredding!

Isn't that your missing water bottle Mikie?

 

[jimbowho]

Have to admit the trekking pole idea is something I never thought of. I believe any old ski-pole would suffice. When graduating from walkers/chair/crutches go to the poles. Can't ski anymore but I will keep the poles, knock wood. You're a tuff old bird mikie, keep healing up!!!!

Pics or it didn't happen. And I want to see a smile.

Here ya go! Not me, maybe it's @DangerDirtyD not really sure, but enjoy!

I'm a little disappointed. The resemblance is there, but I think it's a body double.

Ah yes...the mighty toe-pull. Ya’ll have your significant others yank on yer big toe at the onset of climax and warn them to hold on tight because yer gonna flop like a fish outa water. You yoga afficionados know what I’m talking about.

Hey...it wasn’t me.

[Mikie]

Sure! Watch out for post #306 in the thread. It ain't a cuddly puppy.

Again, I didn’t initiate, but seriously, if your toe gets pulled back at the right time, you will never, ever be the same.

Have you learned nothing over the last couple years with this group???? Any thread over 2-3 pages is almost guaranteed to go off the rails at some point.

Pffft learning is stupid.

The official MTB yogi makes rehab a treat

Even though that hairy fella got the outfit right, his form is off

 

[Tom the Bomb]

Sounds like the healing is beginning. Remember most of the healing and muscle rebuilding happens when you sleep. Keep stimulating the blood flow. Keep walking . The better the diet the faster you heal!
You da man! Hang in there my friend.
Cathy Roooocks!
