Oh NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO :( .

I am sorry to hear this but believe me, I know your pain and suffering, maybe I will go pop a few pain pills right now myself. My hospital bill, just the hospital and nothing else, 50,000 dollars and before all is said and done, this will run 75,000 or more.

Thing is, I will not be diving for a L-o-o-O-O-N-N-N-G-G-G time, possibly as long as a year and at least six months. I suspect you will have a similar limitation, sucks don't it.

Well, fingers crossed you will heal up just super fast. We can pray for you and will.

Love ya,
James

Roger,
Get well soon and I have some new, smaller shorts for you to borrow if you need them!

Rog,

Glad to see you are recovering. Next time have Dave do a re-chrome on that pesky joint, it'll last a lifetime and be nicer than when it left Broxton Avenue. :lol:

Sleepless nights due to some bone ache. Forty three staples removed a wwk ago and scar looks pretty ..... at any rate i am healing up and internally I think all is good. Xrays were good to date. I have some xrays of the break I just don't think I have the program to run the disc. If i can get one I will post. Many thanks to all that have continued to send emails, call and well wishes. robohips x3
