Let me be the first.
Hey, is that a titanium rod in your pelvis or are you just glad to see me?
Just glad to see ya, mofo The titanium, for the record, is on the left. 😛
There is no ‘quick’ healing on this one; it’s an intertrochanteric fracture; 6-8 weeks minimum just for healing purposes (what with the bone mending to the titanium, and healing over itself, all while being walked upon multiple times a day). After that I can get doctoral clearance for strengthening the muscles and bones beyond ‘normal’ use; till then, my therapy consists of ‘walking’, which sounds pretty mundane, but is pretty painful.
Some really ugly pics in there, Lenny’s was definitely worthy of the prize, and super-nice to see the vote tally top 1K again!
Don’t know where I’ll go with the next contests as mobility isn’t my strong-suit; if I don’t have an archival shot, I won’t be taking new. Thanks all for the well wishes and I’ll try to follow along from the sidelines as Im able!!
