Guys I was able to sneak away from my nurse who is definately cracking the whip. (my mom) Everytime I get out of bed my leg swells up and mom is all over me. She respects the zebra man nevertheless.
DAMN did that hurt! I hope none of you have to experience that pain. I mean DAMN!
Thanks big brother for posting the link to my story on mountainproject. I am so psyched to climb again you would not believe it. My friends are taking good care of me and I should be even stronger when I get back on my feet. Dips works good on the walker, and Dief from the Phoenix Rock Gym installed a pull up bar in my doorway. I was loaded down with Nutrex System Sharma pills from the Outdoor Retailers Show so when I recover I should get that second ascent of 5.15b Jumbo Love!
Thanks for the comments! Moms home from chores.....gotta go, yipe!
Rock on! Marty

Just read about this on MP. Damn. Good thing you weren't wearing the zebra lycra, it would've been ruined. Then again, if you were wearing it, you might not have fallen...
Heal well and quickly!
