Well as a few of you know last year I fell down my back stairs due to a really bad sinus infection and basically landed on my wrist and munched it severly. After seeing several Speciallists I found one that specializes in Wrists.
My surgery Date is tommorow at 9am and as most of you know I can hardly wait after waiting a year and a half in pain. The surgery will be aproximately 2hrs, to repair several tears, ligamet and cartillege damage, after which I will be in a cast for several months.
Lets just say after my foot surgery in 2005 I am somewhat apprehensive, as I had a lousy surgeon and almost lost my food, because he fiqured I did not need Antibiotics evan after tell him I was a diabetic. Needless to say I did not listened to him and cleaned my wound everyday, which was probably what saved my foot as I contracted Cellulitis and would have lost my foot had I not been vigilent., as it was I was stuck at home tied to my bed for 10 days stuck hooked up to an Iv machine 24hrs seven days a week.
So heres hoping this surgery will go better. I have asked for optional bionic attachments like a flamethrower and heet seeking missle attachments, but knowing our health system and ohip I will be lucky if I get a Squirt gun attachment. :roflmao
So feel free to drop me an occassional line as I will probably be going through Internet withdrawl for a few days.

Isn't it amazing how they have doctors that specialize just in wrists? wow!
Good luck man. Yeah, it'd be nice to get some type of bionic upgrades. . .
Hey Everyone, I called Jon a couple of times and he is in some serious pain. I'm sure he could use some encouragement.
What a nice guy by the way.
He will be fine in a couple of days. Think nice things and pray for him!

Iceman had some complications last night. They had to take the cast off, restitch the wound and he is in a lot of pain. If you get a chance PM him. He would love that.
It is hard to be in pain!
I know he will be ok. But it's tough for him to type.
Hang in there iceman. Watch a good movie and try and take your mind off it for awhile if you can.
I'm keeping you in my prayers. Hang in there pal.
Hey Ice, sorry to hear about he complications.. hope you feel better soon. And don't worry about not being able to type.. we'll still be here when you're all better. :biggrin
