You know you have better photo's on here then on facebook. Did they give you a time on when you will be up on the water again? I also have a good saying for you.
Sticks and stones will break my bones but it is the doctor who really hurts me.

best wishes for a speedy recovery Ian!
Actually, Lauras family owns a cottage on Torch Lake, so we are here with her family. Her dad was driving my boat while I was (attempting to) ski. Laura was on land bringing the trailer around so we could pull the boat for the night (1 lift, 2 boats). When we got to the dock the only thing I could say between my muscle spasms was "Laur, take some pics of this...". The EMTs thought I was insane, as did everyone else, lol.Quote:

I'm anxious to get back home and get the MRI and hear a timeline for recovery. I think it will be pretty fast, gauging on how I'm doing so far.
And thanksfor all the well wishes and stories, I really appreciate it! It definately helps knowing lots of people do this and get back into it after injury.
Hey Coolie! Glad to hear you have your chin up and eyes toward the future. Good that you are able to get in the boat and help new boarders. Keep us posted on how you're doing.
sucks to hear. as I recreate this weekend, I'll raise the moomba coolie in a quick moment of silence hoping for a speedy recovery..
on the flip side, you could take the quiet time to dream up some more moomba swag to peddle :)
How you doing brotha? Hope you feeling better. I poured a little beer out for you, but my instinctive reaction was to catch it with my mouth.
Hey it was the thought that counts... right?
Get better soon, maybe find someone with an airchair so you can get on the water.
LOL!
Well, the first doctor I've seen since I got home was pretty confident that I have damaged just about every ligament and anything else of importance in my right knee, without even having the MRI. I'm going on Saturday for the MRI, and will know then.
You are alive! So don't fret on how bad it is! The quickest way to recovery is to be positive! I know I will see pictures of you skiing next summer!!! :D
Yep! I agree! The reality was I am pretty lucky to have feeling in my leg. The reason why I had to stay in the hospital over night was becuase they couldn't find a pulse in my foot. Finally after about 15 hours it came back, very faint on a dopler (sp?). I'm definately looking forward to my next session, whenever it may be! I think I see a drysuit and some winter runs in my future, lol.
