monkycndo 0 #1 April 24, 2007 Yep, this non-dancing fool is doing the happy dance. *steps away from the keyboard to do the dance..................................................................returns to keyboard* Why you may ask? (OK, that's your cue to ask.) Thanks for asking. Today was my check-up on my leg. The one where if all looks good, I'm cleared to jump, no restrictions. So, the tech took the x-ray and put it on the screen. Ortho comes over and takes a look. He knows I have been waiting for his answer for a long time. My healing had been slow and I was starting to get a bit concerned. He does the himming and hawwing that he always does. Really takes his time to do a thorough review. So I finally get fed up and ask him how it looks. Bone growth is 90-95% and looks not only good, but really good. OFFICIALLY cleared to jump. YeeeeeHaaaaaw.*does the dance again* I'm traveling this weekend, but the following weekend I'll be jumping at Davis Saturday and eating all the burritos I can eat that night. Just wanted to thank all of you out there that did what you did during my recovery/rehab. *One more happy dance* The people here at work already thought I was nuts. This just proves it.50 donations so far. Give it a try. You know you want to spank it Jump an Infinity Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

monkycndo 0 #4 April 24, 2007 Actually, I'm borrowing NakedJohn's 190 while he jumps my backup 170. I haven't jumped a 190 since jump 37.

gonzalesna 0 #8 April 24, 2007 Quote I'm traveling this weekend, but the following weekend I'll be jumping at Davis Saturday and eating all the burritos I can eat that night. And therefore, I won't be jumping there on sunday, as I like a not-so-scented ride to altitudeSome people refrain from beating a dead horse. Personally, I find a myriad of entertainment value when beating it until it becomes a horse-smoothie. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
