dove 0 #26 March 15, 2004 Careful sunny! I dated my anesthesiologist from my leg surgery for awhile and it was NOT a positive experience. He, too, had a few jumps (military) and that got us talking. I at least waited until after the 2nd surgery to get the hardware out but I wish I had never dated him at all. *shiver* Glad you're home and in recovery mode. Love ya girlie! Fall in dove.

skyesspot 0 #37 March 15, 2004 (((((HUGS))))) I'm glad things went well. Just take it easy and let it heal. I want to be able to jump w/you when I'm done w/ my AFF. Life is too short. Don't sweat the small stuff. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mujie96 0 #38 March 15, 2004 Dear Sunshine, I don't come here much anymore so I can only imagine what you were doing to hurt that ankle (if anyone wants the detailed info on that image, you can paypal me 9.95). I wish you a speedy recovery and hope to see you soon. Take a break from the kinky stuff and heal fast, k? Just keep swimming...just keep swimming....

I had a friend shatter both tib & fib @ end of Feb - now he has a metal rod in the bigger/outter one. His doc expects no more than a 2 month recovery... that'd put you smack in the middle of Chicagoland weather finally starting to behave. BTW, is this your first injury? In my humble, very inexperienced experience; everyone gets one - just be greatful it's not that much of a biggie. There is no can't. Only lack of knowledge or fear. Only you can fix your fear.

sunshine 2 #40 March 15, 2004 QuoteBTW, is this your first injury? In my humble, very inexperienced experience; everyone gets one - just be greatful it's not that much of a biggie It is my first major injury. I always had the mindset that it happened to other people, not to me. I mean, i'm so safety conscious and just never thought i would break myself. From what everyone tells me, it was just a freak accident. My foot got stuck in the mud while the rest of my body kept going forward. I can play the "what if i did this differently" game, but it just drives me nuts. I admit that i'm scared as hell to jump again, but i know skydiving is part of me that i can't give up. Having the support of everyone is so wonderful, makes me deal with this alot better. ___________________________________________ meow I get a Mike hug! I get a Mike hug!

EricaH 0 #42 March 15, 2004 Quoteit was just a freak accident. My foot got stuck in the mud while the rest of my body kept going forward. Those are the worst!! When you could have done nothing to prevent it - shhesh. Please, Don't let it scare you from jumping. You'll get in one or 2 intrepid jumps when your better & forget all about it. Esp since this'll keep you out of the air while everyone else is gettin re-current - you'll be jonesin for a jump. Freak accidents can happen to anyone. I was just talking w/ a friend about this the other day. She had a friend that worked in an office that was directly hit by the 1st 9/11 plane; however, he stayed home that day cause his son was sick. Later that day, while his wife was lookin in on the child; he urned on the TV. The sound was up so loud it shook the wall - well, a large picture that was hanging above his chair fell down, hit him so hard on the head that he died!! This is not a shit story, my friend is good friends w/ the family. Anyway, my point is that if it's suppose to happen, it will. Esp those freak ones... ones that could've been prevented - perhaps it's the persons fault. Anyway.... supportive friends are what makes the world go round! Anyone is blessed to have them!

flyangel2 2 #46 March 15, 2004 My first jump back after breaking my ankle was a 100 plus way. Talk about being worried under canopyMay your trails be crooked, winding, lonesome, dangerous, leading to the most amazing view.
