Ya they took my shoulder off and gave me a new one..now I'm really the bionic man..everyone who sees the bandage says it look like the VA taped a diaper over my shoulder..hahaha..my arm is in a sling and l have too sleep on my back..They we're injecting me with liquid morphine every 4hrs and wanted to send me hm with morphine pills""typical VA"" but l told them NO just give me percs and I'll take what pain l get cause morphine for 6wks is a bitch to withdraw from..I'm doing ok with one hand and Bunny is a big help.

So happy to see you back. Please don't rush the healing. Jim took his sling off too soon and now his shoulder needs a redo. Take care of yourself. We need you here. 👍❤

Can you tell you’ve been missed? :D As others said, don’t rush healing. Fat can be lost after healing and muscle can be gained back. Take it easy, rest and recuperate! And come bug us if you need something to keep you sane!

Thankyou My Friends for your continued support..l see the PA on Oct.1st, I'm sure they'll change this diaper looking bandage that extends from the base of my neck to the biasip and I'll get a look see of my new decor.My understanding of the operation was they literally had to cut my collar bone off along with a section of the arm bone to attach the complete shoulder ball joint and all, he knew l lifted heavy weights before hand and said they have a model for that""seriously"" hahaha bionic man here l come.

Ohhhh it’ll be interesting to see how it works when lifting. Maybe you’ll have more power in that arm ;).

You must be more chipper then me the first few days after surgery...all I wanted was two working shoulders...so that one didnt have to do the work of 2....

l know what you mean about two working shoulders..this sling is driving me crazy, it feels like a straight jacket, its strapped around my waist and loops over my shoulder and my thumb is inserted into this loop so when l want to move my right arm nothing happens..hahaha😭
Ya I'd be a curiosity 1/2 Diablo and the other Chrisw😏..not to worry that sound effect is permanently entrenched in my brain while lifting..hahaha
