Hey guys! As many of you have seen, and may enjoy :)ROFLMAO:), I haven't been very active for a few weeks. While visiting my Mom in Maryland to help her out, who just got out of the hospital and rehab from a bad fall, we were both in a very bad car accident. I was taking her to the grocery store driving her car, since she couldn't get up into my big ass truck, and we were hit by a speeding van. Car was totaled...my Mom is a bit bruised and I walked away with a broken left shoulder 😥 The accident happened a few days before Halloween on Monday and I had to drive 12 hours back to FL with a broken shoulder that Saturday...one of the most miserable and uncomfortable drives I have ever had to make. My shoulder is getting repaired tomorrow and I am not supposed to drive for at least 4-6 weeks which really sucks. I am going to have my daughter's BF take the truck out once a week for a 20-30 minute drive to keep it active so it doesn't just sit for a month in my driveway.

If I can ask each of you for your prayers that tomorrow's surgery goes off without a hitch, it will be most appreciated. I will try to stay current, via my phone, and monitor the forum to remain somewhat active. I love you guys and enjoy being a part of this family. Have a great day my friends and I look forward to chatting with you again soon.
 
This had crossed my mind just yesterday, I thought you had been quiet. I am sorry to hear about all this misfortune. That is a lot to deal with, especially when your Mom was already hurt. I'm am glad to hear you Mom and you are on the mend. I hope your surgery is successful and recovery is quick.

Thanks Axe!
 
good luck with the surgery and recovery. On a more important note - has the daughter's BF been properly vetted and qualified on said vehicle? :cool:
He has signed a 7 page document clearly outlining the expectations of this responsibility and drives a RAM...but I'm not holding that against him ;)

Wow, I'm glad you and your Mom made it through. Shoulders, I've heard can be a real bitch. Complicated joint. Good luck on the surgery. Keep us informed as to your recovery progress.
 
Good luck with the surgery. I have had 4 of them myself on my shoulders. Damn well sucks.
Damn! I can't imagine 4 shoulder surgeries. There's not much left of your shoulder joint.

I've had a separated left one for 17 years from a bad MC crash. I do exercises everyday so I can avoid the full shoulder replacement surgery. It has a lot of arthritis as well. He gave me an injection 3 years ago , and so far I can do most everything and no pain. The doctor says that it's a worse recovery than a knee or hip. Your a brave man!

Was in the military. Right should was great after the repair. No trouble for years til I had the three on the left. I don’t have full range of motion in either and they pop and crack a lot but I do what i need to lol.
 
Hang in there Big Dog...May a speedy recovery be in the future for You and your Mom. 👍In the meanwhile maybe ZR2bizon and Nullnomad can clown with some memes to keep ur spirits up while ur recovering lol. Got the Range disabler on Ole Blue yesterday and it's a whole new machine now...Didnt realize how doggy it was comin off the dfm and shift combo...Now she runs like a true V8 and no pesky shutoff crap anymore. Get well and hope to see ya back on the forum soon.👍👍👍👍
