Under the knife

[FLYBOYJ]

Last July, when some businesses were opening, I took my girls roller skating, an activity we always enjoyed. I always impressed my girls with my skating abilities (played competitive hockey for a number of years so ice or roller skating is second nature to me). Well as we were preparing to leave a little girl cut me off as I was slowly exiting the rink, my weight shifted and down I went. My girls were in shock because "Daddy never falls!" Well I did this time and inured my shoulder. After a few months of expecting this thing to heal and several doctors visits it was discovered I damaged ligaments around my rotator cuff. Tuesday I go under the knife, an out patient procedure but they're still knocking me out.

Chalk another one up for 2020! I may be scarce next week...

Dang, sorry to hear about that, joint injuries didn't ever seem to heal well (as we find out as we get older).

Hope all goes well!

 

[Airframes]

Good luck, and hope you have a quick recovery.

 

[Snautzer01]

Bummer, hope you heal fast.

All the best Joe!

Shoulder athroscopy should provide you with some relief.

Did some googleing. Found your surgeon.

No worries....

 

[FLYBOYJ]

Actually this is my doc!

 

[Snautzer01]

Ahh yes he always has been a bit "wet". But apperantly money and looks will result in a degree. Ohh well at least he uses trusted techniques.
Good as new you will be.

Don't knock him, crabs are very good shoulder surgeons. Speedy recovery amigo!

They both look competent. You're in good hands/paws/claws, Joe! Here's your anesthesiologist:

You've got a great team, relax and enjoy the ride!
See you on the other side. You'll do fine!
