So as a few know....I fell and went boom. A broken knee cap SUCKS. Not even a good story to tell. I will say that the community of TGR is the shit. Lots of advice, laughs (gotta laugh about it), sympathy and a snuggly teddy bear :biggrin:. Thanks!!
So I will post this in the proper place (Gimp Central) when rehab begins.
Oh, man...I heard about the acident of course but this is the first I heard of the diagnosis, what a drag!
Heal up, Ali!
Sucks to be broken! Heal up fast!
Oh, c'mon ~ It's a good story, just don't leave any of the cartoon-like DETAILS out. :tongue:
Heal up well & heal up SOON, Ali..
Glad you liked it ;-)
Ali - Bummer.
Heal well - and spend more time here gettin crazy - wouldja?.
That sucks, heal fast man.
I broke mine in high school running to class - some jerk decided to leave a metal barrier rod in the ground instead of removing it, then bent it over to just shoelace high.
CRACK! I'll never forget that sound.
The best part is, despite the moving kneecap, a joint the size of a pineapple and blood and ooze coming out, the school physician idn't think it was broken.
Did they put you in the flex cast with 3 metal rods?
What's the lucky Teddy's name? ;)
Heal fast, m'lady. Get some sleep while yer at it!
funny, about 3 weeks ago i passed out while standing up, probably from low blood pressure. Not fun to let your face fall from 6'1" to the floor in a deadfall. A badly cut lip and a few hours later, my knee started to hurt. It now has a horizontal cleft through the middle of the kneecap, but it's functional. Close call, i guess.
get better, Ali.
Ohhhhh, not good. Hope the healing goes well.
You're living up to the second part of your name, I guess. Unfortunately.

You could create a new smilie thingy, and call it the "crash and burn sitzmark" or something?

I felt your pain once. Fractured patella. sp? Chasing, or being chased by some girl. I dont remember which! and she was LDS! weird :wink:
Ice and rest
good luck
speedy recovery!
Heal up fast Ali.
I still say all fallable surfaces should be covered with a liberal coating of flubber.
CRACK!!!! UHN!! My patella!!
Damn, sorry to hear that. At least it happened in Summer though? What did you do?
Seconded...I feel like the story is in order Ali. Feel better!Quote:
