Going to be in the hospital a few more days.
Ouch that is a serious fall Bill, yes

Thanks all.
Not even a good story. Slipped on wet grass and fell down a hill on my lawn.
I'm sure everyone that knows me will say " ok, what really happened ?" LOL
They say 6 weeks till I can walk again but I was walking with a walker today good enough for them to say no physical therapy after I am released from the hospital.

Quick a serious break for a simple fall. Really bad luck. Sounds like you're going to make a rapid recovery.

Puts my gripe in perspective Bill. GWS. Anyone might think you fancy the nurses at the hospital, with the amount of times you go there!

I won't deny fancying having good looking young women wait on me at the press of a button, unfortunately no matter how nice they may seem, beautiful young women just don't fancy men old enough to be their father . Especially sick ones. LOL

The past 3 years have not been the best for me but I am hoping the drug company that manufactured the drug that caused most of my problems and damaged so any others will finally settle up next year and I can retire a little early and move to western North Carolina or eastern Tennesee, home of some of the best motorcycling roads on the US.
