Dealing with surgery and physical therapy
ladydyver replied to schmit.paul's topic in General Skydiving Discussions
The knee is doing very well. I have 40 jumps on my new knee. It is a lot stronger now than it was 3 months ago when I got back in the air. At least you were still able to do cardio ---- I was stuck doing nothing. I think the atrophy was actually worse than the surgery itself as I was having such bad spasm. Getting back in the air was my drive.......it is definitely a good motivating factor.

We were in Sebastian when the fatality occurred there during the invasion. After it happened, I told my hubby I just wasn't up to jumping and we left for the day and went to a bar and drank to the lost jumper (even though we did not know him); The next day, it was tough to get back in the air, but very therapeutic as well; My hubby actually did his first wingsuit jump the day after that happened. I wouldn't have gotten in the plane if I wasn't mentally ready to fly and to perform EPs if I needed to. I do think about the risks of this sport; but I also think about all of the rewards of it as well and the people I have met because of this. I am closer to my skydiving family than most of my blood relatives.

Dealing with surgery and physical therapy
ladydyver replied to schmit.paul's topic in General Skydiving Discussions
I had surgery on my right knee in July after a bad landing. I had a new ACL put in, MCL and Lateral Meniscus repair. 10 days after my surgery and the stitches were out I started water therapy.....this was before I saw my physical therapist, but I knew what exercises I could do and not do. I was non-wt bearing for 4 weeks and lost a lot of my muscle and I would say that was the most difficult part for me. To stay sharp I went out to the DZ, watched people jump and land, read a lot of articles and did physical therapy every day wether it was in the gym or at the PT office. I got back in the air just over 3 months after the surgery which is not typical, but my recovery is credited to the fact that I am an honery bitch and the fact that I had a driving force. getting back in the air was almost as good as sex. My hubby was very nervous about it. I upsized my canopy by two sizes and I have to wear a special brace when I jump at least for the next year or two. I am still on a canopy that is one size higher than what I had been jumping before the injury to protect the knee and I have learned to land differently. Good luck!

I am in the neither category. doc came home one day and said he wanted to take lessons....I said well "hell if you can do it - so can I." ....so we started skydiving.

Of course it's reasonable, but when have you ever expected to find that quality in a woman? Shoot a load in her left eye on the one day, her right eye on the next, and sign the card twice.

Doc and I are just over 20 years apart. We have been married for 2 years now and together for 7. He had more of a problem with the age difference than I ever have. The big issue comes along when there is the possiblity of having children (not an issue for either one of us as we both didn't want anymore kids) and then you have to think about where you are in your life and what your goals are. These things change and if you can find compromise on both sides I haven't seen it as an issue.
