What's Going On In Our Lives

Howdy fellow Hypografs!
In case I should disappear from these hallowed halls for a while, I want you to know what's going on. A few years ago, I tore my left rotator cuff, an important muscle/tendon in the shoulder.

Next Thursday, July 27, I will have surgery to repair my shoulder. This will require about 6 to 8 weeks of having my left arm immobile. Since I don't walk, this means I have to check into a full care facility until such time as the surgery heals and I can start using the arm. I can't guarantee that I will have internet access while in the "nursing home". But I will be thinking about all of you.

Re: What's Going On In Our Lives

Wow man,
I really hope all that works out smoothly-

How did you rip that thing, anyway?

Make the most of your time in there . .

Honestly, 6 to 8 weeks in a "nursing home" sounds absolutely insane.

Always looking for more,
orbsycli

p.s. I doubt you read it,
but a few months ago I posted a dream in the dream thread in the lounge.
I had a seriously symbolic dream, where everything was alluding to what's going on in my life,
and You dropped from a tree.
You were crying, sitting there on the ground.
I informed you that we were dreaming,
that we can do anything.
You stood right up,
did a little shuffle with your legs,
and took off into the sky.

zoooooooooooom.

And I know it was you because I just did,
dreams are weird like that.

thanks! I really appreciate that.

I suspect that 40 years of pushing wheelchairs through gravel, grass and carpets wore out my r.cuff. Then a few years ago, while getting in my van, while hopping from my chair to the driver's seat, I "missed" and fell forward. Caught myself on my left elbow. Felt a "paper tearing" sensation in my left shoulder. Hurt like hell. Then faded to soreness, which never went away.

Re: What's Going On In Our Lives

Pyrotex Update

I used the invasive power of the internet to locate Pyrotex and give him a call today. He is recovering from his surgery and should be returning home on the 16th. Aside from startling the man while he was trying to eat his lunch he is in pretty good spirits, and asked me to say hello to everyone.

So, from Pyro, to me to everyone... HELLO Hypography!

Bill
