Progress is slow

One of my hobbies is flying paragliders. I picked a bad day to fly and took a digger. The short version is a bilateral open book pelvic fracture, dislocated sacrum and fractured L5(just cosmetic). That means I broke my hip into 3 pieces and it was folded over at 45 degree angle. My upper and lower body were only connected by soft tissue..

I 'm hoping to be starting to learn to walk again in late January. I'm going to be off all of my sports that distract me from the car. I think things will progress quickly in February :)

  1. I just found the blog (I'm thinking of buying a Cayman) and I have to say: that looks like the most painful thing ever. Get well soon and best luck.

  2. Thanks Sam! It's been a tough 4.5 months but I'm recovering and better every day. Let me know if you have any questions about the swap. Happy to help any way I can.
