Hey T-Bird,

I'll add my well wishes and offer up some prayers for your fast and complete healing. As another one that has has had Rib Issues, I feel your pain. Do what you're told, and don't follow you own foolish and stubborn head (sorry, but I assume you are like the rest of us, and know best! Embarrassed)

Dude... I am sitting here wincing as I read about it.

Ribs SUCK.  I broke mine about 9 months before I joined the Navy, and they were still sore at boot camp.  I was 21 and healed FAST back then.

Crap man... stay off the feet and let 'em heal some.  I worry about your back the most.  Exercise them lungs... despite the pain... you need to keep on that. 

Hang in there dude. 

I'll call and chat you a little later in the day...

Sorry to hear this and hope you heal quickly, oh and it wasn't any worse. 2 things I have found (I'm only in my late forties ) but we do not bounce as well as we did when we were younger, and with my job (fireman/paramedic ) it could have been much worse for you.

I fell at work a few years ago and messed up my back I do feel your pain there, and I too winced when I read it.

Paul,

I am up writing this at 2:30am....I cannot sleep,lay,set in any position for more than 2 hrs.
and when I do move, it is a sharp intense pain that only screaming out loud seems to cure.  I have found that the painkillers are my friend, but am taking them with precaution. It seems somethings are getting better as the days past, such as walking and taking stairs. I am going to drive today for the first time since it has happened. I need to check on my parents and one of my older brothers who is disabled. I hope to try and ride the Valk next wed. to see if I can without much pain. Lucky13 advised me to start doing some short rides before trying to do the hillbilly ride.  If I can't ride I will be driving the car to West Virginia  cooldude

Take it as easy as possible, Terry.  It's all about no setbacks.  I hope you heal quickly and completely.  Looking forward to seeing you on two wheels in Eureka Springs.
