Macdocs Lament ••• Forks - same old same old, maybe a bit better.

That's going to be rough with both on the same side. I suspect this will be mostly leg propelled and it will use your hamstring which for most people is quite lazy. Start increasing distance and it will come alive.
Hoping to get weight bearing clearance for broken leg tomorrow - make my life much easier
I have 80 days to get sorted enough to get on a plane back to Oz. I'm sure my arm will be functional this month.
Think leg will be weight bearing very soon.....make all mobility issues easier

Heal up soon.
You'll be doing wheelies on that thing in no time!
I don't think you'll like my story. Broken fibula with plate and complete ankle reconstruction. On my back for far too long. No weight bearing or driving for months. Able to start physio four or five months after injury. Frequent physio for months. Last visit to doc was seven months after injury. Still had progress to make but didn't need to see him again (unless I want the plate out which I am leaning towards doing next spring).

That's good news. I think most of the slow pace of my recovery was related to ankle. Doc could care less about the bone once it was plated. Load the ankle too early and you can be back to square one (including ankle reconstruction again).

I’d say you’re luckier than that. The fact it was a big scooter and seeing the hit…you’d probably have lost a leg on a normal bike.
Looks like it favors right turns. That eliminates Wheelchair NASCAR. Heal well.
If NASCAR aced in Auz would they go fast and turn right?
You crashed in Mississauga and ended up at Sunnybrook? They must have been worried about you. Glad the injuries weren't as bad as they feared.
Sitting up on edge of bed to eat this morning. Unassisted

that's progress....right arm certainly improving. Think i should wear sling tho
Going to be quiet weekend and I have no room mate so good healing time after yesterday travel stress.
Uni buddy fell down the stairs in his new house, put head and shoulder through drywall
and big assed bruise - he's 6' 4" so mighty crash
.
Least I had a helmet and armor on

Nice to have daily perceived progress tho I tire too easily
Did have a good sleep - hauled myself into position - enjoyed eating upright with both hands tho shoulder still saggy. Have a plot to get well enough to travel on my own at least back to Japan then with partner to Cairns IF needed. 70 days out
Tasty supper with very nicely prepared chicken, red bean rice and zucchini for veg.
Noticed my ribs sore after sitting - seems I took a bigger hit than I thought. Panadol running out so aches more obvious.
hmmmm BP 120 over 80 even the nurse was startled.
