Will be Missing for awhile due to Shoulder Injury

[Tiny]

Hi friends,

So that people won't worry, I am letting you know that I won't be responding to posts on the Board for quite some time due to a chip-fracture/possible rotator-cuff injury, etc., etc., that I sustained in a skiing accident . The soonest I could get an appointment with an orthopedist is March 26th to determine whether surgery will be necessary. In the meantime, the arm is to be babied, and hours of typing or hunt-and-peck stints are beyond me. I'll be reading, and praying, and hoping for the best for all of you, however.

Take care, all, and God Bless!

Tiny,

You weren't supposed to do THAT!!!!

You will be missed. I hope that you are not in too much pain.

I've always said that we were intended to be skiers, we would have longer feet.

Hope it all works out the best way possible for you!!!!

Tiny,

ouch! that does not sound like fun at all..My son has problems with his shoulder, every so often he pops it out, so I think he will be getting surgery for it after april when he graduates from WMU..Make sure you baby that shoulder..

[Snowflake]

Darn, Tiny! Guess that proves that it ain't the skiing that's dangerous but the STOPPING! I'm thinking those sudden stops aren't a good idea...

Take care, peck in when you can! (Pencil in the mouth, maybe??)

Tiny, it wasn't your fault, it was the hill you were going down.

Hope you get better real soon. YOu will be missed.

[sharyn]

Tiny - so sorry to hear about your shoulder.. sounds painful. You will be missed while you recover, but never far from our thoughts and prayers. Love, Sharon

[ginnyde]

Tiny,

I know that hurts and you are right to baby it and not sustain any further damage.

But every once and awhile, type Hello with your left had. We will miss you but know you are peaking in on us.

My husband had rotator cuff surgery performed on both shoulders in recent years. If you'd like any inside info on the procedures or the rehabs....email me privately anytime.

Hope you are soon on the mend, and doing the things you love.

Best wishes,

Tiny -

Gotta get it done before summer......we know you're not one to sit around when the weather gets nice!

Here's to a speedy recovery,

Hugs and prayers,

SandyS

Hey Tiny.

Sorry to hear you'll be missing the rest of the season... especially with all that new powder they're predicting for spring skiing this year down at Crystal. Was it a good wipe out? Did anyone get it on video? Take care, my friend. (and knowing you, you'll probably find a way to get some more skiing in this season, even if it's on the bunny slope!)
