I was thinking of a septum spike & maybe some beads. If I make smaller items,
I can spread the wealth around.

Or was it the 6'th ? Still kinda messed up on the morphine & oxycodone.
The Dr. has removed almost 4" of dead tibia from my left leg. In 6 to 10 weeks,
he's planning on installing a bone graft.

From that day forward, I will claim that "I didn't fall, I was tripped by the dead guy !"

O.K., I know it's in poor taste, but ya gotta' laugh at something.

The good news is that the odds on keeping the leg are up to about 40%, I should
know more in about 3 months. My insurance has decided to reopen the investigation,
on the accident. They've placed a stop on the officers injury claim and our
Congressman is looking into " The lost paperwork " in D.C.


I want to thank everybody for your well wishes, sorry that I don't post more often.

Yep it was a cop that did a u-turn into the side of my motorcycle, in the middle of the block. I'm still trying to get the case started, and yes, I'm working with a lawyer.
D.C. is still ducking my calls and not returning voice mails. Since the accident was more than 6 months ago, it may not be possible to get the case heard in court.
D.C. has some self protective rules.

Thanx for the well wishing, looks like I've at least one more surgery.
The scab that was on my shin since July, finally came off. Exposing 1-1/4" of bone.
My primery care dr. is a bit spun up about it.
I gotta get something done to it, it's Snagging & cutting through my jeans.

My insurance company has rolled over & paid out to the cop, she has claimed
spinal injury. They said it would cost them more than the claim to defend against it.

They've pretty much killed my case against DC... Griping is no help to it.
I'ld like to say I'm not a bit peeved about it, but that would be a whopper.

have'nt posted in a while, because I forgot my password.
All that stuff is in my computhingy, it went on strike. (needed some work)
Not much to report here, I'm back to work ( lite duty & pay ).
At least one more surgery on my leg coming up.
Looking forward to finaly starting to heal up.

Why do only three cats turn into three hundred, when your on crutches?

I need to rustle up a bit-o-green, but look for me at the White heart tavern.

Woke up after surgery to find both legs, it's a good start.
Got fed up with hospital rules, took my self out of traction, pulled my I.V. & cheched
out the next day. Resting & healing at home, feel free to call or drop by. I may make
it to renfaire this weekend, too much rest & healing at home. Bored with TV &
discomfort.

I look and feel as though I'd been attacked by big damned shark. Doc said, " That
piece of your hip bone should fill in pretty well, in a few weeks."
Even the " Skitso " our less friendly cat can't wait to fight over the right to annex my lap. Tired & sore, sleep now.
Oh yeh, thanks to all for the well wishes.

The Doc wants to run a test to figure out why my toes turn black & cold every time
I stand up. I may not post for a few days, sorry.

David Bowie, Then barely known as Davey Jones. I then discovered the Ramones !
Before that I was a fan of earrrrly rockabilly & Doo Wapp.

Way over did the week end, todays reason to drink is OUCH, MY FU*K'n LEG !

With apologies, I don't make posts often. I'm still trying to get out & about
( against Drs. reccomendations,) but I still feel this "Computhingy" a second choice,
to face to face discourse. More than half my abillity to communicate with anyone, is
based on gestures, voice inflection, timing & " real spontanious laughter," that is why
I try when ever possable, to go out to parties or Ren Faire or even "Gods Forbid,"
Starbucks.
Also "cabin fever" is a major factor, but I admit that I wore myself thin this weekend,
I had a great time at faire this week end, thanks to all who hung out with me at
" The Whiteheart tavern." I'm going to take it lite this week, to catch up with some of that Drs. orderd rest.

"If you're Blind , stick to singing."

" OK " Here's the skinny on what's going on with my leg. Despite switching in n out of every antibiotic known to man, some infection has set in. Almost bound to happen when you rub exposed bone on the asphalt of Georgia ave , it is starting to look as though the Doc may have to go back in and clean up some splintered bone ends and add some more titanium plates& screws. He's Going to drain the infected area and pack it with hard antibiotics, I stand a pretty good chance of keeping my leg. I'm ordering a new motorcycle with a hand shifter on the right hand side of the tank, just in case. Worst comes to worst, I may be looking for some "budget minded bionics." I'm not to proud to get a " second hand leg ,"( hotcha chah, I gotta milion of em !)
I thank any and all for your concern and well wishes.
