    The last thing you want to hear from your doctor....

    Gee, that looks like it hurts....

    I took a tumble on the way to a call.
    Right wrist is broken.
    Arm is now immobolized from half way down the shoulder.
    We are waiting for swelling to go down.

    Ever try to type left handed?
    On a clear night, I can see the other deputies emergency lights at least 10 miles away.
    But it isnt flat here LOL

    I feel for you. Years ago, I gave a guy my best right cross and he ducked his head down just a little. I caught him in the hard part of the skull, breaking the bone in my hand behind the ring finger.

    I found out just how right handed I am......

    Ouchy. Did you show the doctor how hard you can punch with your left fist?

    Wait til you try to dress yourself. Buttons and shoelaces. And then there are the personal hygiene issues. Go find out which side the toilet paper is on now 'cuz it sucks learning it "on the job."

    Yes, fractured a scaphoid falling while playing roller hockey.

    Heal up quick bro!

    Waitwait, what I meant to say was that I fractured my wrist one time when I dove on a grenade to save my fellow SEAL team members while on a classified black ops operation in an unnamed part of the world... yeah, that's the ticket...

    I broke my right wrist a 5 years ago. Don't worry, you will be surprised how quick you can learn to do things with your left hand. Make sure you go buy one of those long plastic/rubber sleeves to go over your arm in the shower. It makes the process much more simple and well worth the few dollars it cost. After a couple of weeks with the cast on you will be able to do quite a bit. You should still have your fingers exposed on your right hand. I even rewired the cable in my house on my time off.

    Good luck, Sir. I fractured my humerous (the bone in the bicep) about 3 months ago. The past 3 months have been complete hell. Rehab is no fun.
