jumpergirl 0 #1 July 13, 2004 ... since my last jump. I jumped on July 13, 2003 with Chop Chop when he was in FL, with Travis doing video. Then I had my car wreck one month later. No wonder my day had a funk over it. I still have about 5 months until the docs clear me to jump again... it seems like forever. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
freeflir29 0 #2 July 13, 2004 That stinks.........at least you live in Florida so it will still be relatively warm in 5 months. Hope your healing finishes up! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

favaks 0 #6 July 13, 2004 Many things. The main reason was DZ politics and it got old. I started focusing on other aspects of my life. The year before, I did 300 jumps! . I'm going back to Lost Prairie this year and the first jump back is going to be awesome. favaks Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jumpergirl 0 #7 July 13, 2004 Thanks DzDiva! I always appreciate your support! favaks - Glad to hear you'll be jumping again at Lost Prairie!! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites cocheese 0 #8 July 14, 2004 Sorry to hear that. Well you could get ready for your next skydive. Like a new piece of gear or two . Or plan some distant trip to go on.. with or without a parachute when the time comes. You could start a hobby that would give you something to do on those windy/rainy days.It is tough being out of the game, but let's be thankful as hell we'll be going back in.... to win the series.Write anytime. Heal sooner damn it ! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites dzdiva 7 #9 July 14, 2004 QuoteThanks DzDiva! I always appreciate your support! I'm there for ya, babe!

Thankfully, I've had F1Freak here taking GREAT care of me!! He's been the best through all of this... the accident, unemployment, surgery, the bitching and moaning about it... he's a trooper!! I can't wait to jump again. Let the countdown begin - as soon as I know when!! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites skymut 0 #11 July 14, 2004 vibes for healing. I feel your pain, I'm closing in on 18 months I've been out of the jungle as far as the medical stuff goes for a while, now I'm dealing with some of the bills that insurance didn't cover.

Ya know, something other than sky-jumpin'. That's what I'd do, anyhoo. ~Jaye Do not believe that possibly you can escape the reward of your action. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Muenkel 0 #13 July 14, 2004 I feel your pain Jaime. It's been 11 months since my head injury and I have atleast 13 more months to go, if ever. Vibes for your healing. The good news is that you and I are alive to talk about it. _________________________________________ Chris Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites jumpergirl 0 #14 July 14, 2004 You're right Chris... we're alive and that's the most important part. I pray that you will be able to jump again. I know you've been concerned about it. Good luck - and keep us posted!! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites marcandalysse 0 #15 July 14, 2004 It is truly amazing how the body heals itself, although the schedule it sets is beyond understanding! When you have multiple injuries, some heal up fast (often the injury that you thought would take the longest heals before the 'smaller' injury), some hang in there for months, some heal but the pain returns from time to time.... In May, I got hit by a motorcycle while walking down a street in India. Alysse saw me flying through the air, roll 3 times then hit a wall. Amazingly, I got up and was still able to walk around! I guess my PLFs are pretty automatic by now! Over 2 weeks later had an MRI and found a break and a ligament torn around my knee. I am grateful to my guardian angels that I am alive (although they must have been looking the other way for a moment when the motorcycle was zooming around the corner!), and it has been interesting to see how it is healing..... I am glad that you all are healing well, and posting on dz.com. Time seems slow when you can't get around, but before you know it you will have passed through the worst and then have to psych yourself up to jump out the plane again!
