Went riding on Sunday and was supposed to pick up a new 18 TM 300MX smoker on the way home. I went for one last lap and things went a bit sideways..
I was having fun on the 100’ tabletop -step-down and something went wrong on the landing, best I can piece together is my left hand blew off the bars and I went down hard instantly on my left side. I remember going down, and then waking up from a nice peaceful dream, feeling went from great to pretty damn bad in an awful hurry.
Long story short I’ve been in the hospital ever since, transferred twice and awaiting a surgery on my humerus, which is broken in about 6 or 7 pieces at the top where it goes into the shoulder socket and just below.
Total tally is:
Broken sternum
5 broken ribs
Broken C7 vertebrae
Broken humerus
Punctured lung
Concussion
It’s actually my first surgery ever, anyone had one like this before that they can share their experience with? I’m self employed so this isn’t looking good in regards to down time from work.
