Was that a lock stitch or just a plain stitch... Ouch! My prescription is a major quantity of your adult beverage of choice...when appropriate!

Good luck, and follow the Dr's directions exactly...

Actually B. Jay.

I see your point and I tend to agree with you now that I am thinking straight. I did it last night after I got back from the hospital, under some fierce pain meds and thought pictures would take the place of a technical statement telling everyone I survived the surgery. I was surely not in the mood or the state of mind to post a drawn out thread about my condition. Steve please remove the thread and pictures if you would. Sorry for my mental mistake.

Looks like that sea leg is shot. A wooden stump post might have been a better option. OUCH!!!

The things that folks share with their friends!
Hey Dan, in case you have not noticed, the leg with the stitches is a LOT bigger than the other one. Better go back and have them fix that too :{
Here's hoping you heal up well and fast.
Take care of yourself and do what the doctor tells you,

Dan and Jogn,

Good luck on your rehabs. The pics aren't so bad, so don't worry about it. We see much worse on the news every night.

John, are you able to ice fish the Pete in the next month or so? Should we get something going? I need some good chili!

Greg.

Just got back from my first post-op doctors visit. Doctors it seems are not to far removed personality wise from us fishermen when they accomplish something, He hung those X-rays up like a new mount he just got back from the taxidermist, and braged about his work well past the point of simple explanation. But I was very happy to hear he was proud of his catch.

Well, there you have it. Steve, I think you need to get that keyboard removed from your lap, and get out of the office once in a while.

BJ, Dude. Take a pill and chill.
