I hope the big rains don't come until I get that 18,000# trailer to the bottom of the mountain and across the Broad river- some other time.....

Spent 3 days in the hospital at West Virgina Univ hospital and have to wear the brace for 6 weeks. I am told (not by Dr Hammer) that I am lucky to be walking...... they were totally surprised I walked into one ER myself (the other ER was a 1.5hr bus ride strapped to a board at midnight, that was not fun)
It keeps amazing me some people still can walk into a hospital with a broken neck - can't you move your hand properly due to the fractures in your neck, or did you break your wrist too?
Hope it doesn't hurt too badly, and hopefully you can sleep decently...

It's gotten a bit better, but I have some numbness in my thumb, index, and middle finger. Thumb feels better, but the other two are pretty much unchanged. It also controls my tricep. It's funny, I do work out, but now I think I have like 30% strength in my tricep right now just from the nerve. I can't remember which controls those, C6 or C7. Time will tell if I get the feeling back.

After 6.5 weeks, the neck brace has been retired. Now I can start to get back to normal.

So after this site being up for nearly 6.5 years, you still haven't built a single RC10-
There, now things are back to normal
