Ouch. I'm sorry to hear this. That's a very painful injury. It should heal well though and good on ya for thinking about getting reaquainted with coach Troy ASAP. A friend of mine who was a CAT 1 rider had the same type of fracture with some grade 3 road rash, it happened close to the end of the season so she just bailed. She spent a lot of time on her trainer in the off season and came back stronger the next year.
Good luck and I hope you feel free to vent here. It'll help.

Hey thanks! Right now it only hurts when the bone pieces rub together the wrong way. Once the knitting starts I am sure it will be better.
I am sure I will also get some good PT as well.

Jeez! I'm sorry. Sheesh. In case you needed more medical experiences...

Ouch MP! I'm really sorry to hear about that.... Good news on the scarring, and that you can be back on the trainer that quickly, but take care of yourself!!!

Sh!t Sarah. Can't you stay healthy for, say, 24 months straight?
Heal well and quickly, and enjoy the quality time with Coach Troy.

Yikes! I am sending some healing thoughts your way. At least you will be able to get on your trainer quickly. That should hep from going totally bonkers.
Feel better.

Oh Mallio
What a rotten thing to happen!
Wishing you FAST healing... and in the mean-time you will make a fabulous person in the SAG-wagon
Like RnR says though, at least you can hop on the trainer and your legs won't be in total withdrawal
Courage does not always roar. Sometimes, it is the quiet voice at the end of the day saying,
"I will try again tomorrow".
