  1. Tib/fib/ankle from a biking accident. Tib was spiral and nasty. My foot was pointing the wrong direction. Fib was completely separated mid span and jammed against the skin on either side of my calf.:sick: Tons of collateral tissue damage. Amazingly they did a closed reduction. The doc said to give up sports completely cause best case I might be able to walk. WTF?!? Guess I showed him :ass: That was a long time ago but the atrophy was the worst part indeed. When they took the hip cast off my leg just folded up and I could not straighten it. Eventually I had a walking cast and then a remove able. Prob ~20 weeks of rehab.

     

    A friend of mines son had a very similar break recently and they did an open reduction with pins and his recovery time was much faster...

     

    I've broken my collar bones a couple of times. My nose, many toes and many fingers.

     

    So what happened to you Porter, sorry I missed it :blush:

     

  2. Get paid while you're trained by the US military, then get out and make the big bucks off your publicly funded education, sweet deal. Of course, your next job might be for Sony or Daimler-Chrysler, it's a little harder to wave the flag for that corporate stuff, but here's your future.

     

    The military turns out all kinds of technically trained people; doctors, lawyers, pilots etc..
