Prayers Appreciated.
Prayers Appreciated.
Well I done it good this time. Tried to load my lawn tractor on the trailer by myself. Dumb. Long story short I ruptured my Achilles tendon in my right leg.Surgery on Thursday. Gonna be laid up all summer and most likely early fall. Doctor has already told me absolutely no treestands. No pier fishing for steelhead either. May be able to hunt from a ground blind by Nov. .I dont see myself being able to hunt "the farm" because its such a long walk on uneven ground and due to the crops I can't drive . May be able to hunt rifle season at my place up north in Nov.????? Happy birthday to me. LOL

Prayers red. That hurts ruins your summer and fall.
What is full recovery time for athletes it used to be possible career ending. What is it for a average guy doing normal things.

Prayers lifted Billie. Speedy, total and complete recovery!
May I assume you're not here to inquire about the alcohol or the tobacco?

That sucks! Prayers sent.
Thank you Lord for creating these wonderful birds and allowing us to chase after them.
Re: Prayers Appreciated.
Dr. told me absolutely no tree stands this fall. No ladder climbing. Hunting from the ground should be good.10 weeks non weight bearing. Then 20% for a few weeks. workup to 50 % .Should be 100 % by late fall.I imagine I will have to be very careful from now on.

Re: Prayers Appreciated.
I had the same surgery 23 years ago, complete dis-attachment. I went back to light duty 3 weeks later still wearing a cast. After the cast was removed and I was wearing the moon-boot I went out into the field, concrete sales, driving myself around; oh BTW it was my right leg. When the Doc told me it was time to get rid of the boot, we agreed no PT was required with all my walking around job sites, I was a 100%.
That said, I still get some leg pains occasionally and I have two different sized calfs.
Here's hoping for a quick recovery, and maybe get a second opinion on what you can't do!

Hang in there, Billie. It's gonna be a slow process. Take what it'll give you. Slow but sure is the ticket.
Prayers lifted for you, Brother!

Take it slow & easy, Billie. Follow the Docs orders & don't push too hard. Good luck with the rehab.
