Another day

Just spent another eventful morning at Brook Army Medical Center. Here in San Antonio, the weather is cold and rainy; and it is wrecking havoc on my leg. Just in case anyone was wondering, I have had a broken leg for the past 14 months and on cold and rainy days it hurts like the devil. The doc's are going to put an internal fixator or plates in place in Jan. and if the there is no change by June of 2010 the they will have to amputate the lower portion of the leg and then you can just call me stumpy. My wife calls me the Gimp right now I'm sure she will come up with another one if they take the leg. We shall see.

Possibile topic for finial project

I think for my finial project I will do my paper on below the knee amputatuion verses above the knee. This is something that I might have tp face in June of 2010. I am giving my doc all the time he needs to try different treatments, and then we will talk about amputating the lower leg. I have done some research on this already in order to get my self preped for this out come. If it happenes so be it, if not then all the better. The orginal equipment is best but the spare parts now a days are great.
