Larry Dixon Is Big Owie

[Gail Simone]

He hurt his back and has a painful recuperation ahead.

FEEL BETTER, LARRY!

[Buzz Dixon]

Owie ain't the work for back pain. Feel better soon, Larry.

Herniated/slipped disc, fracture, sprain?

[The Beast Of Yucca Flats]

Dude, that sucks beyond belief.

Hang in there.

[Larry Dixon]

Awwwwww

Thank you!

I was doing yardwork and I thought I'd gotten shot. Basically what happened was the two long muscles that usually lay along the spine seized up then spasmed, threw me backwards, and got a bit, well, torn up down by the tailbone and lumbar.

No idea what brought it on really.

Anyway for the next few weeks I am in a back brace. I am forbidden from driving or riding in a car, lifting over a pound, or bending over ten degrees. They have me on fistfuls of meds and some of them I think they invented new vowels for.

But anyway I can still rocket-jockey a keyboard so I am helping coordinate fan evacuations from Gustav.

[Bo Bo]

Hope you get well soon.

[Sarah Beach]

You take care! Even in your do-gooding!

[Ben Morgan]

Get better soon Larry!

[Aggie]

Awwwwww

while i commend you for your selflessness, which is beyond awesome, please don't over do it. get better soon!

[J. Morgan (Bat) Neal]

Sorry to hear that, Larry. Get well soon and don't over do it. I certainly know all about back pain and not taking care of it properly. It's what led to my disability.

[matterconsumer]

Best wishes for a quick return to a happy back!

[Dr Ray Palmer]

Hope you're feeling better and that you're at least getting some enjoyment out of the meds.

[Chiroptera]

Rest easy Larry! And as tempting as it may be to ignore it, follow the doctors rules about not lifting more than a pound!

I've witnessed how bad it can be if somone ignores that rule! ... And that's all I have to say about that. :redface:

[Sabrinaset]

You better be following your doctors orders, Larry! Take care!

[Matt Doc Martin]

I need to abandon Florida and give myself over to being Larry's personal assistant and do-everything monkey.

Get better soon!

[CutterMike]

You better be following your doctors orders, Larry! Take care!...because you do NOT want to make Dr. Bree come out and give you a talking-to!

Seriously -- slow and steady, man... slow and steady.

[Major Comma]

Oh darn.
Feel better soon Larry .

[Cam63]

That's some serious pain there, mate.

I hope you're better soon.

That doesn't mean you can't wear clothes.

[Stressfactor]

Ouch! Feel better soonly!

[the4thpip]

Gute Besserung!

[Flamebird]

Larry, Larry, Larry,

We've told you not to do that in a sling anymore.

You aren't 20 you know.

Get better soon, or the next Yabs meeting may be at your house.

[bert]

OWIE !!

where can I kiss it to make it better, Larry?


:-p

[Solaris]

Oww, Larry! Hope you recuperate well and get better at lightspeed! Many hugs from Clan Allen (and for Misty too---I wasn't around to hear about her last owwie, just caught up on that, so love and hugs and much get-well energy to the both of you!).

[Larry Dixon]

OWIE !!

where can I kiss it to make it better, Larry?

Fiji, Cancun, Vicenza, Ibiza, Auckland or Sydney. :)

[CutterMike]

Fiji, Cancun, Vicenza, Ibiza, Auckland or Sydney. :)
...You've named it Sydney...?

[Buzz Dixon]

...You've named it Sydney...?...and I woulda thot his Auckland woulda been much...uh...lower.

[Larry Dixon]

If I don't watch it, Scary Bree will be my surgeon!

Thank you everyone. You all are very sweet. And strange. I try to look at this injury as a blessing. Maybe this is where I needed to be. It did happen immediately after I finished a training course, at a time when I had no deadlines. I've done research, answered correspondence, and done some RPing and a few sketches despite the meds.

Had a backslide today *hah!* but overall the recovery is good. And I am happy to report there were no "help please!" cries over my network from Gustav.

Flamebird: I'm not 20 any more, true. I'm TWICE that good. Mwah!

Hoist one for me Cam! Your beers are well over one pound. :)

[Larry Dixon]

...and I woulda thot his Auckland woulda been much...uh...lower.

We Dixon Men are very well geographically endowed.

[colleen]

YIKES! Get better soon!!!

[bert]

...You've named it Sydney...?

wow. . .


that was GOOD !

[Cam63]

Hoist one for me Cam! Your beers are well over one pound. :)

Way ahead of yer.

[Cam63]

wow. . .


that was GOOD !

I raised a beer in it's honour !

[Larry Dixon]

Another doctor visit, more tests. End result?

"I don't know, go see a neurologist."

Fortunately I know one a couple of hours away that I can swap car parts to, for a consultation. And he won't treat me as "HMO Patient #3,889,910, Next Please."

[Solaris]

How goes the recovery, Larry? Hope it's progressing well, and that you're feeling lots better. Still sending love and good healing vibes to both of you, so pick 'em out of the ether if you want 'em. :biggrin: :wink:

[Buzz Dixon]

Y'know what medical science should dedicate itself to?

Finding a disease that can only be treated with single malt scotch.

Heck, I'd settle for one that can be treated with bourbon.
