Broken humorous bone, but this isn't funny!
« on: May 10, 2016, 08:22:45 PM »
Riding lawnmower flipped over on top of me , breaking my right arm and burning my left tricep. Surgery on Thursday.
  This was a new (used) mower and someone has bypassed the seat safety switch.  I knew this so when the mower started to flip, I laughed off of it toget away from the blades, hit the ground and started rolling, blades missed me but exhaust got me.
   I learned my lesson ,I'll be fixing that switch as soon as I'm able.  I got lucky!

Not fun. My dad told me wisdom comes from experience, most of it bad. Hang in there and good luck with the surgery. Give us an update when ya can after wards.

Been a month, arm is at about 50%, getting better everyday.  I am tired of being left handed though.  No rehab yet, DR. Said wait.  I can almost lift it above my head.  Pretty painful the fist couple of weeks, and sleeping on your back sucks!
  Metal plate and screws.  I'm almost the man of steel!0
