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.

Good Luck to you!

Isn't it amazing how they have doctors that specialize just in wrists? wow!
Ripley: Ash. Any suggestions from you or Mother?
Ash: No, we're still collating.
Ripley: [Laughing in disbelief] You're what? You're still collating? I find that hard to believe.

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.
