TT Injured Reserve List

“Had that happen once or twice ---- No Fun.

If CB Lives Long Enough, he may experience it too one day.”

“lmao.......how did you manage that????”

“Ice ice baby :D”

“I Don't Like This Thread.”

“Just got back from knee surgery. They tell me about 6 weeks till I can move around some what normal, but when I asked about skiing he just smiled and said, well, perhaps a little longer.

He was right about one thing...compaired to the rotator cuff, this was a piece of cake.

So far so good...we'll see when the block wears off, LOL.”

“Get Well Soonest!


I do not like this thread, Sam I Am.
I do not not like it worth a damn.

I spent too much time on this thread with that wonderful ankle sprain, and it's like it's sitting here waiting for me to #&%!$ up something else!”

“my right knee has been making a crunching noise for the past year- only when weight is on it. I weigh very little (5'3"/ 105#).
Age and use- it doesn't hurt yet.
Play hard!”

“play hard and glucosamine everyday”

“Well, I think my right knee might have to go to the doctor. The swelling has gone down some but its still sore as #&%!$, and all bruised up too. If its not better in a couple more days, I'm getting it checked out.”

“Let me know if you want the name of my knee doc Nicole.”

“WK, I have to find one thats in my PPO :(”

“Heal fast, Steve.

I have a small tear in my right shoulder rotator cuff also. The Doc says I have to wait at least a year after the stroke before he will even think about surgery.
He says it may not require surgery by then.
Hope so.”

“Um, what?”

“i got a paper cut on my tongue...does that count?”

“Oh jeez I did that once. They bleed a lot and take forever to heal because you keep messing with them.”

“it taste bad too :-(”

“Cuts on your tongue generally hurt a lot. It's sensitive area to get cut.”

“but isn't the mouth the quickest part of the body to heal...as well as the eyes?

How are you Rich???”

“It's been a lousy day. I got to spend a good portion of it in the emergency room.
I tried to take the kids to Taco Bell for lunch, started to get out of the car when the guy parked next to me started backing up, hit my car door, pinning my leg between the door and car frame. My screams stopped him, my frantic waving made him pull forward a bit. The poor kids in the back seat looked a bit shocked, to say the least. The Paramedic tried to take them inside and get them their tacos but they had no desire to eat.
Thank God my leg is not broken. My calf is about 2-3 times it's normal size. I can't put much weight on it (but earlier couldn't put any...thank you tylenol 3's w/ codeine!) and have to use crutches (not an easy feat with tylenol 3 w/ codeine).
This is number 5 lower extremity injury in 4 years. =( I will hopefully not be off my feet for too long w/ this one. Dr said any where from a week to three. I'm shooting for three days.”

“Just think about all the new gear you are going to get with the settlement.”

“Sassafras - Sorry to hear about your accident. If you should need someone to talk to the other driver, I'm available.”

“Yep.   Sounds like a candidate for being put "under the jail" as the expression goes....

Get Well Soonest~!”

“Dang Sass- so sorry-”

“I'm glad you're not more seriously injured. Being young, you should heal quick. Being ornery will help even more:) I see retribution in the form of the parking lot scene from Fried Green Tomatoes.

Heal quickly.”

“OUCH!!!...omg.....they say tissue injuries hurt worse than broken bones!!!....Bless your heart!!!..Poor kids...I'll bet they were sooo scared....I hope your recovery is quick!!!...hugs...”

“oh sassy I am so sorry to hear that. take ALL the time the doctor tells you too!!!

“You can take the boy out of the attorney suit, but can't take the attorney out of the boy. chili jumped on that QUICK!

Sorry to hear it Joy. Amazing, just amazing. Look at the bright side, when you tell Abbey not to run in the parking lot from here on out, she will mind you.

Hope the rehab goes well. Hum Pink Floyd over the weekend, find a bell to ring, and make birch be a good nurse.”

LMAO now that is funny. if you can get away with doing that, then the pills and pink floyd will make it somehow worth it :)”

“By the end of the weekend she'll have learned to handbell "Comfortabley Numb" when calling birch to fluff a pillow.”

“Sass...my heart hurts for you...ok..my leg too!!!

Hope you feel better soon!!!”

“LMAO dayhiker!!

something about tylenol 3's and pink Floyd makes a nice combo

go sassy!!”

“Wow that sucks! heal quickly!”

“Ironically, eating at Taco Bell probably would have done more long term damage to your health than the auto accident. Consider yourself blessed. Hope you heal soon.”

“Sass, very sorry to hear about this. Get well soon, you have a backpacking trip coming up.
hmmm, just thought of this. dayhiker may be going on the same trip and now you get a leg injury.”

“I'm going Ewk! I can drive from parking lot to parking lot if need be and crutch my way to the campsites. I also have to walk down the aisle for a friend next week. Not sure if she'll want a hobbling bridesmaid. I was really looking forward to wearing those high heels I got to go with the dress too.

It's better today, more weight can be put on it and it's considerable smaller. Thanks for the well wishes everyone.”

“Good point Ewk, Sass and I threaten to show up on the same trip 2x and she gets a broken ankle the first time and squished soft tissue at the mere threat of the hike the 2nd time around. Yikes!”

“Dang Sass, that's terrible! I hope you got lots of info on the jerk who did this to you! HE better pay big time.”

“Oh my gosh, that's crazy!! You poor thing.”

“Hang tough Sass. Hope ya get better soon.

I know you know this but...do what you are susposed to do. I know better but I still needed friends to remind me to use ice, put my leg up, ya da ya da ya da.

I often have to be reminded to do what I tell others to do ;-)”

“Yikes, Sass!”

“Sass, get well soon. I'm glad it wasn't worse, but that sounds painful enough.”

“OWWWW! Man that sucks! Sorry. Vicodin?”

“Nope, just tylenol 3's. They're hardley cutting it. I find myself watching the clock waiting until I can take more. =( I should've gone for the Vicaden. Lesson learned.

Thanks for the reminder MtnSteve. I'm being good, I promise.”

“umm i think they are working, you think you are birch
:)”

“ahhh that sucks. You didn't REALLY want to wear that bridesmaid dress did ya? j/k..hope you get better quick!!”

“Yeah, that does seem a little drastic,  NGB......       < WINK >”

“Trust me Mapleleaf, they are NOT working.

I'm switchng over to 800mg ibuprofens. Cross your fingers and hope they do the trick for me.
I have a pretty high pain tolerance but it starts to wear you down after a few days.”

“Good luck with that Vitamin-I.  Had a friend with chronic back pain who took those miniature footballs all the time.

Marvelous for hangovers!
