That trip didn't go as planned

Back in 2018 I had rotator cuff surgery, so I was in a sling for about four weeks afterwards and then I started physical therapy. I was walking into my garage to drive to the therapist's office when I fell down a flight of steps. I'm still not sure how it happened. I didn't injure any of my orthopedic surgeon's fine handiwork, but I managed to add my ankle to the therapy program.

I'm way more fortunate than you, though, holligl; all that happened after I got back from a Colorado trip.

I wish you lots of luck in your recovery; broken ribs have got to really suck. I had a lobe of my lung removed last summer which involved lots of holes through my rib cage, and for a while, coughing was a real interesting experience.

Glad you recovered well. I had a hip replaced 2 years ago, but pain was less. Walked out about 3 hours after surgery. PT was pretty straight forward.

Got home last night, quite a bit better today. Learning how to move to avoid the pain. A neighbor helped move the ST back into the garage.

Adding insult to injury, we got a sizeable IRS bill yesterday. After digging through the 2018 filing and getting them on the phone, I was able to get it significantly reduced. I found it interesting how quickly he admitted "well the IRS does make mistakes".
