Injury update

The doctor says the shoulder bone is healing nicely, and that I'm to start physical therapy.  I'll still be in the sling for at least 3 more weeks, and it will probably be 3 months before I'm back riding.

But he thinks it's doing nicely, and ultimately will be as strong as before (6-12 months out).

It feels like I've turned the corner.

    Did you at least ask about the adamantium treatment?

    Good to hear that. I just got back from Brunswick about an hour ago.

    Some jerk on a sport bike was lane splitting stop and go traffic and running about 40 MPH. The GSP took exception and used their car to barricade him and the biker ran into the GSP Charger and tried to run. The trooper grabbed the biker threw him to the ground and cuffed him. The ended up being about 5 units there before it all came to an end. A dash cam would have been a good thing as it unfolded right in front of me.

    Quite glad to hear progress in the healing department.
    3 months until you are riding again...
    Determined you are.
