Dennis Got his cast off today... He's gonna be ready for Bow season and he not taking hostages... Look out Deer he's a aimin to KILL ANDY PRAYERS LIFTED
Right at a month afterwards >>> All the Road Rash is skin now, Tender & vulnerable skin it is... The ribs and repaired calavacle don`t hurt when I cough or sneeze, it is uncomfortable however to do this... The cast is off my arm where the surgeon fixed it with a "Flap Graft" and I am starting to use it causously, but still can`t button the top button on my shirts 111+ - staples init will remain until I see him the 25th, then maybe they`ll come out??? OFF the pain pills prescribed, using OTC advil type... I ain`t Not worth a hoot outside in this heat, Dennis Thank You ALL for the healing prayer
One of the Dr.s released me today at my first follow up visit... The Dr over the busted ribs and road rash... One down... Two more to go, Dennis
I went back and re-read this thread, First I wanna Thank All of you for thoughts and prayers... I`ve been going over this thing quite a bit, trying to figure what went wrong... Maybe my response to the deer was a tadd Heavy on the front brake... Maybe the "click click" noise from it was the culprit??? https://www.hondashadow.net/threads/crashing-sucks-2.592886/#replies But I didn`t tell all in my first report... Test driving a new windshield, I went through the gears, I normally shift to 5th @80+ and saw over 100 before I let off... I slowed TWICE to under 60 when a deer popped up ... I reacted with Full ON Brakes, I went down > As I was sliding down the pavement I remember asking myself When will I stop grinding flesh off my body, Please let me stop... When it did finally come to a halt, I looked at the bike futher up the road than I slld, I picked it up onto the sidestand, went and cleared the road of debris, including the hearing aids I had in my left pocket, a piece of mirror, the spare clip from my pocket, and whatever else I had in the left front pocket... I put it back in that pocket and it all fell through back onto the pavement... That side of clothing was missing... So i put it in the other pocket... Picked up the saddlebags, my gloves which had come off, the Mustang seat, and put it all back on the Bike... Cranked up and rode home... I didn`t hit the front brake coming up our dirt/rock driveway, but I got thrown Again... Wasn`t running fast neither, MAYBE 15MPH, but the Bike went down... Was the front brake "Dragging"??? I dunno??? BUT landing on my right shoulder broke the calavical and ribs... I picked it up again and parked it in her spot in the polebarn... So, there you have it, "The rest of the story" Dennis Thank Y`all for all you do... Venison burgers tonite was good
