Hi Maillo, hope you aren't in too much pain today. I was thinking of your sad little injured jersey. When one of our relatives was involved in a car accident, a kind soul made a quilt out of the the clothing that was cut by the EMT's. Maybe you can make something like that if your jersey is too far gone?

Just read about this now. Warm healing thoughts are headed your way! Do keep us posted on what the orthopod says.

Saw the ortho. It's non-surgical for many reasons. But it's pretty well messed up. He went over the x-rays and CT scan with me, and it all makes a lot more sense.

Going with the idea that a picture is worth 1000 words (and thanks to SK for helping me figure out how to do this), here's a general overview of the issue.



The top part of the bone sheared off, and the bottom part is broken up in pieces, which are displaced from where they should be. (The lines in the bottom part are simply an approximation of the breaks. He showed me the pieces.)

So he says 2 months. We'll see. I can start on the trainer soon - I just need to get someone to take it downstairs for me. And hook it up. And buckle my shoes. And pull up my cycling shorts. And close my water bottles.

Wow. Nuts to this crap! Who would believe it?

It must be time for me to send you another book...
