Hi all! We have been experiencing an issue on site where threads have been missing the latest postings. The platform host Vanilla are working on this issue. A workaround that has been used by some is to navigate back from 1 to 10+ pages to re-sync the thread and this will then show the latest posts. Thanks, Mike.

Hi all.
~10 months later.
Start with the good.
Got the all clear from the fracture clinic; happy with the healing.
I haz job! Started a new job 3 weeks ago. Only a contract position but it's 9 months and so far I like it.
I'm walking much much better on my own.
Have 2 sessions of hydrotherapy left in the hosp.
Started gym to help build up back and left arm (back from walking badly cos of ankle; arm cos of the shoulder damage) - slowly but surely.
Did 6 counselling sessions. Was having it pretty **** a few months ago. Couldn't see anything positive - fml etc etc.
the Bad:
Ankle hurts still; withg the cold weather it's been pretty **** in the mornings.
Fracture clinic thinks I may need to get the plate out cos its agitating the skin (basically inside of my ankle is always discoloured; plate rubbing I think) - but idk how long recovery would be; cant afford time off.
Claim is slow moving; think my initial med report went MIA en route to the solicitor
Not my fault tho!
Oh, and cos I commute more than before now, I really really miss the damn bike. Rang a chap about a s1krr for a friend and chatting away I damn well nearly said yes myself! O.o
Stay safe everyone. Wouldn't wish it on anyone.0 -

Relatively low speed; combined impact of 50/60kph max I'd say, maybe lower.Good to hear you are making decent progress kaimera. 10 months - and to think all this from a relatively low speed impact and while wearing all the gear. :gulp:
About the insurance claims - if any kind of payout is years away, how on earth are you managing financially - treatments, rent / mortgage, just everyday sustenance.. everything costs and arm and leg these days.
Injury/illness benefit for 9 months; had to sell quite a bit of gear to get by, savings were delved into
Treatment is thru the hospital still so that's covered but I was paying for an osteopath for a while as well (total legend btw, wouldn't have made the progress I have without him) but any outlay like that should be coming back whenever.
Working now so financially I'm getting to a better place. Was tough no doubt, one of the reasons for the counselling 0 -

Yep; really had no time to do anything other than try an evasive. Lifting the leg wasn't even a thoughtyikes, got knocked off my bike a while ago, again low-speed, but I was so conscious of the car bumper coming, and my leg I lifted it way up outta the way.
didn't bear thinking about tbh. 0 -

....tbh, if I was doing 1mph more - or to be more correct, if she was doing 1mph more, I wouldn't have had time, either. Them's the breaks.... (sic)Ode To The Motorist
“And my existence, while grotesque and incomprehensible to you, generates funds to the exchequer. You don't want to acknowledge that as truth because, deep down in places you don't talk about at the Green Party, you want me on that road, you need me on that road. We use words like freedom, enjoyment, sport and community. We use these words as the backbone of a life spent instilling those values in our families and loved ones. You use them as a punch line. I have neither the time nor the inclination to explain myself to a man who rises and sleeps under the tax revenue and the very freedom to spend it that I provide, and then questions the manner in which I provide it. I would rather you just said "thank you" and went on your way. Otherwise I suggest you pick up a bus pass and get the ********* ********* off the road”
