calledisrael 0 #27 April 9, 2005 my aff-i kicked me in freefall when i wasn't tracking straight enough...oh no, just kidding. i hurt it pretty bad on a crash landing several weeks ago but thought it was fine now... somehow i managed to strain/tear/dislocate it in freefall. you know, those barrell rolls can be wild sometimes... i could not pull at all and had to go silver, and then try to land it on my left hand - but i still had a radio and they talked me down. saw the doctor this morning, who put me on vicodin and referred me to the orthopedist on monday morning. the guys at the dz recommended one that tends to help our peeps. it's getting more painful and difficult to move as time goes on. maybe we need to start a shoulder injury thread. but hey, i graduated. life is either a daring adventure or nothing at all.

Jumpervint 0 #32 April 9, 2005 Personally, my back is causing problems, which the chiropractor almost has in order enough to jump. Otherwise, we have a 'new' Caravan this year that is still in the process of being retro-fitted for jumping, and it's been a lengthy process and nobody wants to jump out of the 182 regardless of what beautiful weather we might have. If it weren't for the back I would be shaming someone into 182 jumps. It's time to get back in the air. Next weekend for sure. Vint. . . . . "Make it hard again."

LaDonna 0 #50 April 10, 2005 I found out Thursday that I have a fracture of my sacral region of my spine (this is the area that is in the middle of the pelvis right above the tailbone) when I had a really bad landing last weekend. So no jumping for 6 weeks. FGF#3 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
