yeah- 05/06 were super sucky due to this- and the end of this year likely as challenging. But *hopefully* after that will be better. (I keep wanting to ask you if you want to come out here and take care of me for the 8 weeks they say I won't be able to work- but I still have no place to put you, so I think I am just wishfully thinking)

Wow, okay, now I get it. A picture really is worth a thousand words.

dang- and I tried so hard with the little joint model I make with my hands...

but this is why my elbow stops bending at like 90ish degrees- it bones hit each other wrong. and to fix it they get to move my muscles, ligaments *and* nerves around so it might be able to bend a lot more. (meep)

I fell over on my motorcycle in 2006, and while I didn't dislocate it then I did a couple of weeks later while it was still swollen like crazy- and did not realize that is what happened for some few months. And this is the first time I am insured enough to see if I can get it fixed. This xray is from 2006 in the fall- but the ones from now don't look any different.

I am not exactly sure how to send you to the beginning of posts about it (Feb 15, 2006 is the first one I found) but this is what the url said when I was looking at it

and looking back 2006 was full of suck- wow...
