Thanks DMT, but I did let it heal last time. I got an infection that was there since the original injury. The doc said if I wasn't as active as I was then I wouldn't have noticed for many months and the bugs would have eaten more bone which probably would have had to have it amputated.
For some reason everyone thinks I didn't let it heal properly, but that is not the case.
Thanks for the good energy everyone. Hoping to get discharged from the hospital today.

Right on brotha, it will be good to meet you. I've just been hearing "let it heal this time" for so long it starts to strike a nerve. I really did baby it and did everything the docs said to do. Just had some bad luck with the bone eaters, haha.
Cheers!

Ammon is right - being active strengthens the bone.
Decades ago I had a broken leg but did not walk on it.
No bone grew back to knit it back together, until I was able to walk on it.

Glad to hear things went well Ammon! I made sure to check in on FB yesterday to see how you were doing. I will give you a call soon, in the process of getting out of the sandbox to the Ditch. Have a good one man!

Keeping the good energy flowing right before surgery:
Got discharged late afternoon yesterday and went straight to the Valley Uprising screening. I thought it was very well done and super entertaining. It really got me pumped to climb and jump, once I'm healed up of course.
Thanks for the good vibes and energy. You guys and gals are awesome!!
