Break a leg on holidays in huatulco....

teamgreen · Dec 18, 2018

Sorry about the **** luck with injury, but isn't the resort pretty awesome? I was there this time last year, and in Feb 2013. It was damn hot during Feb trip, and Dec 2017 trip the place was only 30% full and nice and quiet!

What a crappy was to end a vacation and start of the Christmas season. Here's to a speedy recovery

Sorry to hear the chitty news Ric. Hope all heals well and there are no more bumps in the road for your better half.

That sucks. Plane rides suck in good health can’t imagine them with a broken leg! Hope she heals fast!

glad you guys had the insurance...broke my arm in St Anthonys Idaho few years ago and I also had to pay up front...such a **** show. Hope she gets fixed up soon and heals good.

I wrecked my shoulder there. I drove myself to Canada and stopped at the first hospital I seen.

Update: Was operated on last nite and she is now the new owner of 2 plates and a bunch of screws to hold her leg together... 3 hour operation and she doesn't get a cast, only a support boot to wear during the day. All will be okay.

and now Ric is in charge of the turkey for Christmas Dinner.

Hope for a fast and solid recovery for Ronnie Ric!

At least it didn't happen on the first day of your vacation. What an ordeal. Hopefully she heals like it never even happened.

I had the same surgery ~26 years ago after a gnarly 4 wheeler wreck. It's still bothersome.

She has a bunch of new hardware in her leg 2 plates and a lot of screws.... They did fix her tibia and fibia

Will she be home for Christmas or does she have to spend it in hospital?

Summitric · Dec 24, 2018

She was operated on last monday nite and spent monday/tuesday nites in the hospital... She's been at home ever since... Foot elevated and lotsa drugs for the pain. She has a "boot" she can put on to move around with crutches, but can't put much weight on for a few weeks.

Well that sounds like a pretty good prognosis. Maybe you should take her to Mexico for a few weeks while she is convalescing?

Wishing a speedy recovery to Ronnie.....

My ankle break was my first night in NYC, Manhattan on a mobility scooter was interesting.

My American Othopedic Specialist in NYC said my ankle would need surgery (plate & screws). Doctor today in Spruce Grove told me that's not how it works in Canada, I'm in a cast and everything seems good, so I have to wait another 3-4 weeks and get another x-ray. In the States they are quick to operate because its $$$ for service, apparently here if surgery will be required they will wait at least 4 weeks until the 2nd x-ray to determine what and when.

I think I will go for a 2nd opinion though because the Ortho in NYC was pretty adamant about it needing surgery and said if my doctor in Canada did not agree they were welcome to contact him to discuss. The Doctor today just looked at the cast, read the prognosis and said "it should be fine" didn't even have the ability to pull up the xrays on the DVD I have.

I hope the Canadian doctor is right and with my cast and 4-6 weeks I'm good to go, but if I needs further attention I'd rather do it now than wait.

Summitric · Dec 27, 2018

Wow... Hope it's not broken and just a really bad sprain or at most a crack... Hoping for a quick heal for you bogger. Did you see the xrays in nyc or here in spruce grove?

Summitric · Dec 28, 2018

So with 2 plates and a lot of screws, it seems to be healing okay.... She was more worried about her gehko tattoo than anything else. Doctor paul at the miseracordia did an awesome job. We took the waterproof bandaids off last nite to make sure all was okay... It is healing well
