Doctor said, no more crutches
 

And no more physical therapy either :winkwink:

congrats !

Thanks...

Walking again after 4 months feels very weird.... not painful, just weird

Although its more like "limping" instead of "walking"

congratz on the recovery dude :thumbsup
if you don't mind going back though, what happened to you?

Congrats Mr. Pheer!

U-Haul truck hit me head-on while I was riding my motorcycle, and he fled the scene of the accident

thats wonderful you will be up and about again! Just in time for the holidays! Best Wishes!

Spunk, that's great news! Now maybe you'll quit being so bitchy!

:) :) :)

That's awful.

I'm glad to hear you're getting better. :)

But i'm not happy unless I'm bitching about something.

:)

YaY!!!!

Congratulations Mr. Pheer!!! :thumbsup :glugglug :thumbsup :thumbsup

congrats I like hearing news like this

Time to get a new bike :thumbsup

I been trying this walking shit all afternoon
It aint working to well

My ankle doesnt bend forward anymore like it used to
And my left leg is alot weaker than my right leg from not being used for 4 months

I think my doctor is smoking the good stuff

This is gonna take a while

I'd have to get a new wife first, cause the current wife aint going for it, I already tried

Maybe if I buy her another BMW first

Tell her you wear the pants in the family and say its my way or the highway.Open the door for the effect..:glugglug

It does take time and patience and a strong will. You got all of those. You're a strong man and you're going to do just fuckin fine! :thumbsup

but then who would cook and do the laundry?

:1orglaugh

That shouldn't be as funny as it is. :1orglaugh :helpme

Whatever you do don't go back to the crutches or buy a cane or anything like that. Tough it out, you'll heal up a lot faster. It sucks but it is the best way.

Your new girlfriend of course :thumbsup

thanks!

Have we met before?

hehe I know what your talking about I had a cast on for a year and a half. I use to just watch people walk in stores and think damn I will be glad when I can do that simple thing.

No, I haven't had the pleasure. I just take notes on posts i read.

yeah I tried that and I tasted the floor

so then I put on my hiking boots and laced them up real tight so neither ankle would flex, it seems to work better

i gotta work on my left leg strength, its just too shaky to walk more than a few steps, so i'm dragging the ultimate gym out of the closet tomorrow

i would have been doing strength exercises the whole time but doc said absolutely no weight bearing whatsoever because of the bone graft :(

I know what you mean

I envy people that can walk out to thier mailbox

I remember learning to walk again after my accident, and I decided to learn how to shoot pool in my spare time. It works.

Yahoo Pool?

:1orglaugh

No. I actually got up and dragged my ass around a table.

Congrats MrPheer!!! That's a fantastic holiday present!
How is the suit going against U-Haul?

Sooooooo what state will you be taking the little tike fishing in? I vote for Rhode Island... you guys can swing by NY and drop me off some fresh fish then! :winkwink:

Note: Fiona Fishy Pants and Tina Tuna Pants... ahhhh the memories :1orglaugh :1orglaugh

All I can say without my attorney screaming at me is that its progressing and it looks great

We are gonna go for the Big Tuna off the coast of San Diego :thumbsup

:thumbsup

nice :glugglug

sounds good, i remember reading about your accident, and its good to hear the lawsuit is going good too :thumbsup

I've broken a few bones in my life... best thing to do is exercise your leg and ankle.. try to bend it a little more each day in both directions.. it will slowly come back.. btw what ever happened with the driver?

Yeah I've already been thru three months of physical therapy to get the knee to bend, it pretty much locked up when they put in the steel plate and screws... just wasnt much they could do for my ankle becuse of the bone graft, didnt want to take a chance on it not healing properly

as for the driver... for right now, he thinks he got away with it
he's in for a big surprise when the detectives show up :)

all this time and the police still havn't questioned him??

Congrats. I hope the leg continues to improve and that the asshole gets what's due to him.

the only things that cops move fast on is murders and drugs

Only 2 hit & run detectives in Las Vegas and they are pretty backlogged. He will get whats coming to him, hit & run with injuries is a felony here.

The guy really has nowhere to go. He may think he got away with it, but the cops have his location, my attorney has his location, and Uhaul isnt pleased with him over this lawsuit.
