I'll be praying for you mate. I hope everything goes well and you get fully recovered, and that your recovery doesn't keep you from having a merry Christmas!

Hey everyone.  As some know, I will be going in to have my rotator cuff repaired (again) tomorrow.  I have a >75% tear in the tendons of insertion of the Teres Major, Supra and Infra-spinatus muscles (basically the entire rotator cuff).  Bottom line: a 6 month recovery.  7 weeks off work.  Can't sleep in a bed for 4 weeks minimum.  Gonna be rough.  I am hoping to be productive saber-wise, but that may or may not be possible.  I am sure that I will log in to the major forums once I am up and at 'em, maybe 2-3 days post-op.

Thank you for your patience everyone!

Geez... sounds rough. Good luck! How do you sleep then, if no in a bed for the first 4 weeks?

God's speed for a healthy recovery, you evil cyborg reptile!

I've broken Juggers in half, smashed their bones, left the ground behind me wet with brains. There's nothing I wouldn't do to win. But I never hurt anyone for any reason other than sticking a dog's skull on a stake.

Thank you everyone.  My wife is very worried...and i sure hope she never has to see that letter I just finished writing (where the money is, where the passwords are, usernames, etc. and goodbye...just in case).  I don't think I have ever done anything more difficult in my life.  I am not worried, but I am always prepared for any possible outcome.  I am old hat at surgery.  This is #9 for me and all of my pre-op testing was perfect so I don't foresee any problems.  I will plan on checking in on Thursday at the latest and let y'all know how it went.

It is tough.  Have to sleep sitting up.  Last time I slept in an over-sized chair for 5 weeks.  This time, I have a 1 year-old Lazy Boy, but it is weird sleeping in the living room, lol.  Just about the time you get used to the chair, you are comfortable enough to sleep in a bed again.  It is a sleep-a-coaster for about 2 months.  At least I know what to do this time.

Ohhhh, BTW I made the LEDs for Nightstorm and Vvenom's Awesomesauces tonight.  I figured reflowing tri-rebels would be a bit rough on my manual dexterity for  a few weeks, so I knocked them out.  Clearly those two projects are "in progress" ;)

Due to a surgery I had on my right leg back in 2012 I had to sleep in a recliner for 3 months during that time because I couldn't lie flat!   :-[
So I know where you're coming from bro  :)
Hope everything goes well!

Thankyou everyone.  I am alive, sore and generally miserable...but alive, which in my point of view, a good thing.  Typing is difficult so not too many posts for a few days and i will get to PM's this weekend.

Sorry to hear you had to have shoulder surgery.  Best wishes for a speedy and full recovery.  Glad to hear the surgery went without any problems.  Maybe Santa will bring you a new maintenance droid to help you during your down time   8)
