Them Bones them Bones those Pelivic and shoulder bones
Home today. Right leg, Bum and Right arm hit the stairs as a kookaburra laughed across the road [biggrin]
Honestly it was funny. Loved having a cup of my own and my chair in my brief visit Broken bones take 6 weeks right? How about surgialy reinforced bones?
I have about 1/2 a tone of stainless steel in my pelvis and shoulder. Titanium rod in my broken leg which I have been standing on for a month now. My unbroken leg under the repaired "Open book" pelvis has been egg shell weight bearing for four weeks as well, Shoulder left arm in Egg shell useless for the same time.
X-rays and Surgeons review a few hours later tomorrow about 4 and a bit weeks post my surgical reinforcing. can I walk? Can I use my right arm? Or do I wait to that 6 week typical and use my bum to get up stairs and home Friday or early next week?
I am honestly lucky to be alive so the questions are really for fun not serious. Do Broken bones sugically enhanced heal better than the plaster cast way? I find out in a few hours [thumbsupbig][thumbsupbig][thumbsupbig][thumbsupbig][thumbsupbig][thumbsupbig]

Lucky man, some one was looking after you, still, no excuse to miss veterans day, 18th August. You still have a left hand to hold a convivial. :wheelchair:
That “someone” was pretty bloody useless then!
Hate to see what “they” would do to him if “they” were *not* looking after him [emoji41]
