Thanks for all the info guys. Well so far it has been just a little over 3 weeks since my accident. I'm getting better each day and I am able to get around a lot easier than I did when I first came home from the hospital. My leg still swells up everyday, but I still work hard to do all I can to get it in shape.
Physical therapy sucks and hurts like a mo fo. But I know I have to do the excercises they told me to do. The hospital is getting me a travel packet together for me for when I fly. They give me copies of my x-rays and a statement from the doctor about the rod in my leg, so security shouldn't be so bad.
I have been working from home for the past 2 weeks and this is my last week doing so. Then I have to be back in the office next week on Monday the 25th. It will actually be nice to go back to work at the office. Sometimes working at home isn't all that you may think it is.
I've been practicing driving my truck with my left foot for a few days. It was a little confuzing at first, but I'm getting the hang of it. So I should be good to go anywhere my truck can take me pretty soon.
I had my friend bring my boat back home for me from Lake Powell this past weekend. I'm not going to be doing any boating this season because of my accident. So there is no point in keeping my boat at the lake and paying storage. The wife was doing some cleaning around the yard and wanted the boat moved. No one but me knows how to backup the boat trailer. So I had to hobble on out to the truck and have my son inlaw hook up the boat so I could park it elsewhere. It was depressing knowing that I will not be doing any boating this season.
I had my son inlaw unload my 700xx's from the flatbed the other day and put them away. They have'nt been touched since my accident. It was good to hear them running again but it was sad knowing that I'm not going to be riding them any time soon either. Another depressing moment.
Despite all the pit falls, I'm glad I'm ok and getting better. God bless my wife, family and my close friends for being there for me and taking care of me.
Thank you all and god bless each and everyone of you for all your kind words, wisdom and jokes. This truely is a great forum with great people. Even though I'm not going to be riding for awhile, I still come here and read the boards. I can't wait to get better and start riding again.
