Got the next 4 months off work because I fractered. My t12 vertebrate l

Just got out of surgery. And stuck in the hospital for four more days. I just wanna go home and play with my snakes... Goo news is not working I will be home for every step of my eggs hatching on June 24th. Think I might have to set up a go pro.

Ouch! I cracked L1 about 20 years ago. Take it from someone who didn't listen to her doctor afterward - don't try to do too much too soon! Periodically mine still sends me a not-so-gentle reminder that I was young and dumb.

Yea I had 2 titanium Rods and 8 screens put from t10 to l2 with a bone graph on the t12. Told me no lifting anything over 10 lbs. For the next 4 months minimum most likely 6. No work either.... Good thing my fiance loves snakes and is more than willing taking over reptiles duties.

Now to get released from the hospital

slipped and/or ruptured every single one of my lumbar discs (besides two) when i had a trampoline accident. I loved having my animals with me when i was healing,not going to school was fun in the beginning but i missed social interaction. It gets bad feeling alone and physically not being able to interact with a person on a daily basis without experiencing pain... At least you're looking on the bright side. Get well soon.:) :)

Its all I can do is keep positive and thank for your comments . I fell out of a pickup truck and got ran over by my boat trailer.

If we're sharing, 12 years ago had 1400lbs dropped on me, destroyed my lower back. Severe damage to L4 and 5. Was told I'd never walk again, 2 surgeries, tons of therapy and I did. Returned to work, got trapped in the back of a trailer by an improperly loaded 650lb barrel. Destroyed my rotor cuff, had my bicep tenden relocated. Tore 4 ligaments in my shoulder. Had 1 inch of my collar bone removed (shoulder decompression). A metal damping system installed. And have C4,5,6 severely herniated and considered inoperable without crippling me completely. Had 13 Boas ( BCI, BCC, BRB, Dumerili)kept three Peter Kalh snakes and my Dumeril). For a couple of years I kept nothing because I was fighting stomache cancer. About two years ago couldn't believe the prices of some of the ball python morphs (I started in this hobby in 1987). And jumped back in, I really can't tell you how nice it is to have snakes again. That's why I keep simple set ups. Plus I can always count on my wife. Sorry about the rant. But I can relate, my snakes truly make bring a smile to my face despite what I've been through. Hang in there!!

Yeah, it was late. Usally I try to keep that in. I was tired and it felt good to vent. After I wanted to delete it but it I waited to long. Sorry about the grammar, and the the story being a little choppy in the middle. I posted too tired. Yeah, not to mention the hell it put my family and I through. Have two young daughters. Just trying to say keep on going, have something to look forward to. I can't tell you in the last twenty years how many lemons I've been handed. Just gotta make lemonade. Even if you get tired of the taste. Kept boas for most my life. I wanted something a little more smaller. The balls have been a blast. Keeps me going even when I don't want to.

Snake snuggles!!! :D

Stay strong man!

I have had 5 surgeries on various pieces and parts over the years. The last was fun. I tore my quadricep muscle completely off. It was work related and I was out for 7 months.

Lots of computer and snake time and some goofy, pain med induced posting on snake boards.

I'm back at 100% again and I'm still kicking butt so you'll be back too!


Rest up and enjoy the smell of Brainerd in the summer.

I probably won't see you at the expo next weekend.
