sorry to hear the news George. I hope for a speedy recovery for you.

Gee whiz that sucks. A girly sport to boot. Guess we won't be fishing the Islands in Nov. this year. Art are you out there? Got plugs
I am surprised Alan was so gentle explaining the injury to us. I am sure he is lobbying to do the surgery for you On a serious note if you need anything don't hesitate to ask. Bummer.

Ya know I went to see my brother, a doctor, a few years ago about some issue. He said I know exactly what it is: You turned 50 and your warranty expired.
Get well soon

Hey, Doc, now it is your turn in the exam room. The problem is you will need to go to another part of the hospital for awhile. Having a little experience with your chosen field of endeavor, I can say that the injury may be very painful, especially when going through the PT work. Did they cast it?? I hope that you have a good and fast recovery so we can finish our conversation the next time we meet at the office.

Heal up quick George. And if you don't mind can i use your rod zeebaas and nice home built surbag with plugs included. Also a map of your honey holes.

Get well and heal right. What drag it is getting old...
My BIL injured his achilles as well, just standing in the surf and a coconut hit him just right. He claims that it was an attack by a rare coconut shark...Rest up , don't push it.

He that would make his own liberty secure, must guard even his enemy from oppression; for if he violates this duty, he establishes a precedent that will reach to himself.

On a more positive note I,ll bet George knows who the --gentle-- P.T.'S are.
No screaming in the PT room George. I did and frightened the rest of the patients.
They stuck me in a small private room with Wanda the wrestler. She tied a palomar knot with my legs

Ugh! Somewhere Flap is laughing. Remember his toe fracture?
Alas, when you are stupid life sometimes bites you in the ass, and all you can do is turn the other cheek.

It wasn't soccer, it was a Western PA family reunion volleyball game and like any good father I was teaching those disrespectful worthless 20-something sons of mine a lesson in trash talking. Probably I was describing my magnificence when it happened. At least now they'll feel guilty for.......10-15 minutes maybe (the scum finished the game without me).

Still, if you're going to get hurt, playing one last time with your kids is the way to do it.

Sounds like a trip to the OR, a month in a cast, 2 months in a boot, then 4 months of rehab.

Thanks for the well wishes.

Yep I remember Flaps' broke toe, It was one of the first things I thought of when I read Alan's post.

On a good note, I have some wall cabinets for you if you still want some??? let me know. I guess you will be on the disabled list for a while

Well, then, I'll turn most of them loose so you can get 'em on the way back up next spring.

George-Numby: It would be especially ironic for the Flap to see you rehabilitating-- on the Fish Pier, in your wheelchair, at the Canal. I'll be glad to drive you there and prop you up. We all know how much you just LOVE to hate the Canal......

Pain; but smiling!

Orthopedist Instructions: "NON WEIGHT BEARING"

Interpretation: That doesn't necessarily mean "Non Fishing".
