Rescued my dad from potential impalement one day couple months ago. Boy do I have to keep my head on a swivel with him these days.
Glad you’re doing well Don! Gravity sucks

Reminds me of when I was on a ladder on top of a driveway covered in 'golden seal' (small polished rocks glued in) attaching the light by the second story windows here, and my brother (RIP - 2011) was holding the bottom from slipping.

Well, it did slip, and he took the bottom rung in one shin (standing on the other, then to keep me from falling. we were both over 300lbs back then.

Dumb shi... tuff. We built my first fj40 together. Miss him still.

(why yes, those are sliding glass windows on the second floor. No I didn't install those, and the replacements had not yet arrived.)

whats pisses me off the most is i cant drive pig with broken ribs and clavicle

 

[archie73]

I broke my clavicle last fall. Had surgery a couple days later. A week later I took the 40 to Moab. Sometimes it hurt, but it definitely lifted my spirits. I admit broken ribs might have changed that trajectory.

Boy! It really sounds like you were lucky! Hope you heal up quickly!

 

[Pigeaten]

yep, my Dr. said i could have ended up horizontal instead of verticle

 

[scrapdaddy]

Man oh man! So many things could of went wrong. I'm not done talking with you, so glad you're still here.

RIBS are painfull! Me know, dont ask RZR 900 and collar bone

 

[Pigeaten]

did they fix collarbone, or let it heal?

 

[bobm]

They used to wrap it and . And figured it didnt do anything, so had me Bro shove it back in and they dont even wrap RIBS anymore! Was ****ing painfull but back to work light duty week later! Mine were cracked not broken. They say cracked is more painfull. Cough, Fart, Piss, , move it hurts! It SUCKED. Time will heal. You will get better.

That sounds like it could have gotten a lot worse in a hurry...
