From Jerry on May 1, 2004.............. Sorry I couldn't get back to you sooner. This is the first time I've used the computer since my abortive attempt at flying last Sunday. What a difference a day makes. I never imagined how important a leg was! Anyway, while trimming a tree in my yard, I started to fall off the ladder and so I jumped instead figuring a leg was worth less that my my head or back. I don't know it I was right or not. Fractured the left tibia . Very clean hairline break, non-displaced with no muscle or tendon damage. HURTS LIKE HELL! I will need crutches and a fixation boot(same as cast, but removable) for one month and will limp around a few weeks longer than that. I can drive ok and am able to work although the foot really swells by the end of the day. All in all the orthopod said I was lucky. It will heal with no complications and there will be no residual damage or ill effects, except a bad memory. Any trips to L.A. or Orange County will have to wait until June, but we will be coming. The pictures on the web site were cute, but I didn't recognize any of those old guys. I'll keep you informed about the healing process. One piece of advice (free) TAKE GOOD CARE OF YOUR LEGS---YOU CAN'T WALK VERY WELL WITHOUT THEM.
