Well, this is my first post. We'll have to see how this works out.
Last Sunday I was riding my bike, with my family, and took a fall. I had been clowning around, trying to buzz Andrew's tire with my front tire, but things didn't work out quite as I had expected, and suddenly I was on the ground and not able to get up. My left arm was busted and dislocated, and felt like it was nailed to the ground. I fall down, go BOOM. Or maybe SPLAT. Beate and Andrew gathered round and did their best, and eventually the EMTs came and scooped up the pieces, and took me off to the Emergency Room. Everyone who worked on me was great, and I'm very gratefull, although I fell at 2:30 and didn't get out of the hospital till 10:30.
I'm fortunate for having a loving family, a good employer, and good insurance. Since I am a computer person, I have the ability to work from home, and since I broke my upper left arm, I still have the limited use of my left hand.
I have surgery on Tuesday to screw the broken tubercle back onto my proximal humerus, if I understood my orthopeadic surgeon correctly.
And I've been thinking about trying a blog fro a while, but never really got a round tuit.
But now I finally have. :)
