Ouch. Hope you have as speedy a recovery possible..

Oh well. I can tell you as someone who is still recovering from a serious leg fracture from a year ago that NOT woodworking is a bad idea during recovery. [:u)

Glad that you made a speedy return to LJ’s and I hope you will do the same for your orders and so on. My experience has proven that the deer makes a better target than the trees. Sorry to here you had to endure this event to start with and wish you all the best.

Hope you heal well and quickly. I was on the NYS thruway today, and a driver lost control of his SUV behind me and ate the guard rail. I bet he’ll wish it was a live oak when he gets done. Dry roads, so I have no idea what made him spin out.

Get well soon Frank! Glad you are at least back at the computer. Rest up and do what your doctors tell ya to do.

Wow!

That doesn’t sound like any fun at all.

Sounds like you were in pretty bad shape.

I hope you have a speedy recovery, and maybe take up deer hunting!

Best wishes;

Best wishes for a speedy recovery. I hope you clients will cut you some slack. Pelvic fractures are hard to stablize. I’m glad you made it through the wreck.

Well, I hate that you’re in pain… but it suuure sounds like a good excuse to spend more time on LumberJocks to me..!!

I hope you have a speedy recovery… tell the Dr that a little titebond on that fracture will go a long way.

Hit the deer.

My dad was a police officer when I was growing up and he told to hit the deer as it will cause less damage more offten than not.

I hope that you get well soon.

Get Well Soon…

accidents are a pain in the a$$, hope your recovery will be swift, and you’ll be back to normal ASAP.
