Default out of hospital...flipped pred..

Well got outyesterday..monday..

Last sunday night (nov 30th)i was out riding my pred with some friends...took a turn to sharpe and flipped.

I broke my humuiors (sp?) which is the bone that connects your elbo to your shoulder. I now have a plate with 9 screws holding that togther, 23 staples, plus i boke the scavoid (small bone near your thumb wrist) and have a pin in there.

I also tore one of the nerves so i have limited feeling and movement in ,my right hand. typing sucks...im still pretty wore out...prob wont be online for a bit. also dont think i busted the pred up too much..broken aarm for sure...i havent seen the quad.

theres only about a 60% chance after future nerve graphs that ill get all my movement and feeling back in my hand...so im not sure if im going to keep or sell the quad.

anyways...justed wanted to say hi

Scotts, hang in there man I fractured the head of my humerous 1 1/2 years ago when the Renthal bars broke on my just assembled Arens 250R. I also severed the axilary nerve that fires the deltoid muscle and had a nerve graft done as well as the Doctors at Mayo Clinic performed a new procedure on me. 8 pins and a titanium plate hold my fracture together now too. I sold my R last winter but in April decided to try riding again and bought a Pred. Rode every weekend all season and my shoulder and nerve function continue to improve. I know how bad it sucks right now for you but you'll be back puttin the roost on in 6 months or so! It took 3 months before the repaired nerve started doing anything for me and then it was noticed improvement in arm function after that and still is improving 1.5 years later. Good luck to you and let me know if you want to talk nerve talk.

I hope you get better soon. Don't give up hope on riding when I had my accident (crushed left hand looked like a bag of bones in the x-ray) they said I would never be able to ride again. But I proved them wrong. Anyway keep up the good spirits and heal up. Good luck!!!
