Big 'ol write up

[_paralyzed_]

I just read a lot of the replies and well wishes. Let me tell you, my RCM brothas mean a lot to me, and knowing you guys have my back so to speak really is heartwarming. I feel like we are all characters in "Good Will Hunting". I'm the weak smart ass, all you guys are the tough and the genius brothers, and Monster Mike is our adoptive parent. Just remember Linc, It's not your fault. It's not your fault Linc. It's not your fault.

So here's an update:

Week 1: Successful
The reconstructive surgery is complete and 7 of 42 days of recovery is over. I am still in the hospital on I.V. antibiotics, and will remain here until all infection is gone. It should be 2-3 days, then I'll be moving to a nursing home for the rest of the recovery. It does look like I'll also be getting a back surgery to help remedy the scoliosis. I may get a couple weeks in between recovery and the back stuff, but I'm trying to get all my health stuff done consecutively. I've had enough down time.
Internet here f'ing sucks. I won't be on much but will update y'all when I can. I can't even facebook! I was all OMG! And the nurse was all LOL so I thought to myself 187 w/ a .223 bee-yatches!
On top of all the great things you guys said, Caleb, my 12 year old called me out of the blue today on his first cell phone. I'm number 1 on his "circle" of 10 phone friends. Shit happens in life guys. I'm eyeball deep in Shit City right now, but my RCM brothas and local homies got my back, and I'm number 1 on my boys calling list. Life is what you make it, I'm making the best of mine. PEACE OUT BROTHAS
