Surgery Successful

September 12th, 2007 · 4 Comments

Just a quick update. My surgery today was successful though I feel like I got hit by a truck. Apparently the jagged bone end at the break has been progressively been cutting through the Platysma muscle, so it’s a really good thing I had surgery. The doctor reported that my heart and lungs were very strong so I got that going for me… which is good. Six weeks in a sling and then six more weeks of recovery which puts me at November 28th…

    Glad to hear it was a success! Heal up and hope you’re riding off some of that turkey day food. Can you get on the trainer in the sling?

    Mike - So glad to hear of the successful surgery and good fortune that you had it, after all! I suppose it is inevitable that injury will occur sometime when we ride two wheeled things fast on scary terrain! Take care - Holly

    I hope to be back on the trainer, sitting up, in two weeks. We should do some group trainer rides this winter.

    Hi Mike,
    I’m so glad your surgery went well. It sounds like it was a good thing that you had it done. Talk to you soon.
    Love, Mom
