TT Injured Reserve List

“That sounds like a winning plan.

Heal, Tango, Tex, Treebait (The three totalled Tees!).”

“Say that 3 times fast Geo! I hope I am on the Autobahn to be 100% healthy. I have to go get xrays and go back to her next Monday.”

“sorry treeBAIT.... good thing I can still hike inspite a bad case of CRS....”

“I ain't sayin nuthin fast today, yawn, double frickin over frickin time frick frick!”

“Wow, all kinds of pain in this thread! I'm sorry that you all got hurt, and I hope that the healing is at lightspeed. Get better soon.”

“Ya! We're all like sick or something...HUH HUH”

“X-rays tomorrow. Still on drugs, still in pain. DAMN...DAMN...DAMN!”

“ow. :(

Tell your doctor!”

“Dang Tango, I thought I told you to heal last week. You don't follow orders very well!”

“Nah, I was never very good at that kinda stuff! Well I go for cortizone shots on Monday. Good luck to me. Thanks for caring Geo!”

“Bad backs are scary. Get well.”

“OK here is the update. I stopped taking the muscle relaxant yesterday. This morning I woke up and was much better! Go figure. If I keep improving this week, I won't need the cortisone shots! I hit the treadmill Thursday!”

“Don't overdo it! You need TIME to heal!”

“That is my watch word. It only hurts when I change position, standing to sitting and the reverse. Walking doesn't hurt. I got it okayed by my Dr. too. It is so nice to have the kind of support the people offer here!! Thank you to all!”

“Hey Y'all!

Well, it only took 4 1/2 weeks but I am walking again. Today in rehab I was allowed to ride the bike and do some weight bearing exercises. Who knows, maybe Sierrapaloza is a possibility after all!!

I wish a speedy recovery to anyone else unfortunate enough to be on this list! Be well!!

Tex”

“You too, that's great! Hope to see you at the palooza!”

“Wow, that's great Tango and Tex! Keep getting better.”

“You might find this website helpful.”

“Congrats, you two. It does take time. I still don't have full strength in my right foot. It's not easy to push off on it yet. Stay within your limitations and give yourselves time while you rehab.”

“Y'all get better soon!!!”

“Dang, the TT hotties are dropping like flies. Get well tango & tex!”

“Thanks to all for your good thoughts and wishes.

Skullcap-that website is cool. Thanks!”

“You're welcome ¦ ) !”

“You can't believe how much I've been waiting for this day to arrive. Today was my stress test following bypass surgery. I passed with flying colors. Now I can actually begin doing some trails with elevation gain. I still need to ease into it, but at least I can get off the sidewalks around the house. Unfortunately there's still snow in the Beartooths, but when it's finally melted I'll be ready for it.

I never thought throwing a day pack on could feel sooooooo good.”

“Glad to hear it geezr.”

“Congrats Geezr- You're kicked off the list!!!”

“Take a hike!”

“I can't wait to get kicked off the list too!”

“Skullcap I'll kick ya now!”

“LOL!”

“Wow! I didn't realize all of you were injured! I'm glad to see you (Tango, Tex, Geezr) off the list. I only read what was posted from today, but whatever put you (Skullcap) on this list, hope you heal fast. I'll go back later when I have time to catch up. Geez!”

“Thank you Snow Nymph, I'm working on it.”

“Thanks Snownymph. Get well soon Skullcap. Are you on any good drugs yet?”

“An update would probably be good, huh?

Well, I came through the surgery with flying colors (all 2 1/2 hours of it--yikes! = 8 0 )on Thursday. I was originally scheduled for 2 nights in the hospital but I was recovering so much faster than they expected that I was able to talk them into letting me go home Friday evening. It was so nice to eat solid food again! I've stopped taking the good drugs. They had started making me nausious and nausia is not good with stitches in the belly, so they had to go.

G00SE went back to work yesterday and I was able to go to my son's last band concert of the school year last night. I even went for a short walk this evening. Things are looking good!”

“Wow, that's great!”

“Yeah, what's really great is that I'm off work (paid) until June 9 no matter how fast I recover. Woohoo!







(please help me, I'm going to be bored out of my mind!)”

“Now I really am going to kick ya!”

“And you managed to avoid the Witch, I take it?

<GRIN>”

“Get well wishes for all you sick and injured hikers. That way I can see you on the trails soon!”

“I never envisioned it feeling so good being voted off the island, but it really does.

Tex and Tango, glad you're nearly back to full speed.

Skully, hoping your recovery continues to go well. I can feel your pain when you were nauseous with stitches. The first day out of bypass surgery I had the hiccups four times. It was so painful they had to give me morphine. Sneezing wasn't a bundle of laughs either. ;-)”

“The skin at the bottom of my feet is peeling. This is not uncomon for me, but the peeling is more than usual. Am I going to die???”

“Ice Tea, I'd say your days are numbered and you might want to mention STD's to all your soul mates. ;-)

In the meantime take two aspirins and call me in the morning.”

“I took 25 aspern, I think that will help. More the better, is my thinking. I tellyah how I feel in the morning.”

“Thanks guys. Yeah Tilt, I avoided her ¦ ) . Geezr, I'm glad you're doing well now you heard 'em--Go take a hike!


And Tango, ¦ P .”

“Wow, there've been many additions and subtractions to this list!

Congrats to all you who are officially off!

Skully, heal as quickly as is comfortable. Those belly cuts are a bugger.”

“Heal soon Skully. Just log onto TT every day and shoot the breeze. It's not the same as going hiking, but it helps you realize that you will go hiking again. Worked for me.”

“My back is just about back to normal. Chiropractor doesn't want to see me any more unless I have trouble again.

Thinking about a dayhike on Sunday. Will be my first outing since March 1st 24-mile hike shortly before I was injured.”

“Way to go, Geezr!

Maybe aero will let you join his team for Peaks to Prairie next year....”

“I'm on now! My hamstring (more specifically, the ischial tuberosity) has really been sore for about two months now! I'm getting a deep massage today to see if they can break up some of the scar tissue forming in there. It's right at the insertion point where the hamstring attaches to the glutes.

I'm always massaging it at work and I walk around looking like someone whose shorts are too tight!”

“Bummer, aero! At least it's not a groin muscle - how would that look around the office?!”
