I'm back....and apologies

I got into a massive, for me, truck wreck on Feb. 18 of last year and I am just now getting back home....I ended up with ten out of twelve ribs broken and shattered on my left side, a dislocated shoulder that I am still rehabbing. I am sorry if I didn't live up to all the commitments that I had made to certain people and can no longer fulfill, please forgive me. I'm still not sure if I will ever be able to work again, but I'm doing the best that I can.....I would like to renew the friendships that I had before the accident .

Welcome back and glad you're on the mend. Sounds extremely rough...sorry you had to endure something like that. As far as rehab, just focus on lifting a coil and the rest will follow :wink:

Good to have you back and so very sorry that you were injured! can any of us help you complete whatever it was you were trying to do?
Tee, I thank you for the thoughts, and I do appreciate you, I had recieved some treasure magazines from one of the members and was supposed to pass them on, but because of some setbacks at work was not able to at the time.....and then the accident. There are going to be some blessings from it tho, I get to go point hunting a little more because I need the exercise and some those places will definately give you a workout......
To all that reply, thanks for letting me back in.

Re: I'm back....and apologies

sheesh ole goat: Excuses, excuses, excuses sigh. Other than that welcome to the club. Unfortunately mine were from an aircraft accident. you DO understand that it was not my fault, not pilot error? It was some stupid joker that put a power line in the wrong place.

Naturally your boo boo was due to the other driver also, no?

I healed nicely, so will you my friend, but watch that shoulder, follow rhe therapist's instructions faithfully. I am surprised that you didn't have any spinal or neck vertebrae fractures, you were very lucky.
