Prayers for Brew1brew

[Houdini]

I (somewhat) feel your pain Les, I broke a collar bone once doing my best Superman impression off of a dirt bike, luckily I didn't need to get screwed and it healed on it's own.

Get well soon!

[Disco]

It gives me the willies when medical procedures begin to resemble wood shop projects...  Yikes!

Get all the way better soon.  Spring is right around the corner!

[brew1brew]

Les,
I hope your surgeon had a nice face , talked softly, and had warm hands. No one likes getting screws from a brute.   I googled the clavicle plate and grabbed an X-ray

This looks painful . Is it similar to yours?  That is a lot of screwing. And we thought OEM Honda screws were pricey.

That's pretty much what I got installed. It was a long diagonal break. Doc said that he put three screws on each side of the plate.

So I GOT SCREWED 6 times!

Thanks man! Letting heal on its own was an option, but my Doc said that in the long term I will recover more completely with the erector set pieces!

Yeah, that's why I didn't search Google before the surgery. Wood shop projects? I thought it looks more erector set. But the screws Marcus's image look like wood screws.

  Seven if you include the reason for the six.

If you look at My before and after shots you'll see that there are 8 screws, so the count is higher than I care to calculate

  Don't think anybody will be screwing with you anytime soon!

Thanks Tim! Every day is a great day to be here! And every day I feel just a little bit better and thankful to have the opportunity to heal!

my Phat Girl is back in the stable, looking like new! Thank you Disco for bringing her home for me!

You're welcome, Les.  I could say "you're welcome", but a more accurate response is "my pleasure"!  

No surprise, but wow, what a friggin' rocket ship!     Very nimble, too.  Davey likey.
