Upper Balljoint Surgery Aka Shoulder Replacement?

Yep. Thursday, bright and early they're going to saw off the top of my humerous and install a prosthetic ball and socket joint lagscrewed into my scapula. Outpatient, smh.

Ought to be interesting...

Apologizing in advance for any 'crankiness'.
So play nice you assholes and don't burn down the joint.

Don't let your kids grow up to be roofers, riggers or trapeze artistes...

Wow!

Six months from now it will be all a memory of what was.

Wife had emergency shoulder after a fall on some ice. She also had a hip replaced.
Said the hip was nothing compared to the shoulder. So do the PT religiously from the start would be my suggestion.

But I know you will....

You gotta vote in November right?

Oh, man. Good luck. A good PT regimen will have you pulling the lever in November with one arm while keeping the MAGA polling place Gestapo at bay with the other.

In future use a nail gun and hope the surgery is successful.

Good luck Bob, from one asshole to another.

Good luck on ya'. Don't forget that good nutrition is the keystone of recovery. Gotta fuel the machine for the recovery and rebuilding.
For that other part, I'll try and behave
