Trying to deal with all the emotional aspects of this is very hard. Anyone have any suggestions on where to start? Please PM me if you'd rather not post. I'm just trying to get through every day as it comes.

Turns out I needed a bone graft in my foot as well. Didn't even dawn on me that it wouldn't be my own bone material used. I freaked out when the nurse handed me a card to send to my donor's family to thank them. I don't know how to handle that at all. Way too soon.

Everyone's support has ben so amazing to me. It helps me get through this challenging time. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.

Take care,
Becky

Becky - job has kept me off the forum for too long but wanted you to know what tremendous spirit and power comes through in your posts.

You will come back from this and will be a stronger person for it. As a cancer survivor (and I know there are others on the forum) I can tell you that you are going about this the right way - with a positive attitude and not trying to minimize or deny what did happen, or what could have happened, but focusing on the hear and now.

Follow the doctors orders, set a goal for everyday, and move forward. You will be back with us. Maybe Colorado Springs needs to be a destination spot for the midwest next year

Don,

I wholeheartedly believe I'll be back stronger than ever. I'm already trying to decide what color 250 I want for next Spring.

I'm going to talk it over with my husband Mike, but I'd really like to have a get together, rally, party, or some reason to just have a good time at our house for everyone. Might have to turn it into a block party so all the neighbors don't mind.

I'm always up for a Bar-B-Q!

I might very specifically start a new thread for this one!

Tigress · August 27th, 2009, 10:34 AM

Did I hear Bar-B-Q?

BlueTyke · August 27th, 2009, 01:37 PM

Did I hear party??? Oro???

noche_caliente · August 27th, 2009, 07:23 PM

Becky - how are you feeling today? I've not been in a place where I can call the past week because I'm staying at school crazy late working on getting a lab together for my kids. Things healing up ok? Any recent doc or pt visits?
Thinking of you! ~K

Custom Seat Creations · August 29th, 2009, 09:50 AM

Kim,

I've been pretty sick. Had to get some nausea med prescribed. I'm able to keep some food down now.

noche_caliente · August 29th, 2009, 09:52 AM

I'm so sorry. The kid and I had a tummy bug yesterday, and that was only 1 day of it - I hate you're to the point of needing meds. I know you're probably already sick of the BRAT diet to try and keep food down!

Sailariel · August 29th, 2009, 02:29 PM

Becky, Those pain meds play the devil with the stomach. My doctor recommended yogurt and yogurt ice cream. Seemed to help--I was on Demerol, Percocet, and later Codeine. Suffice it to say, I was stoned.

I just need to get better so I don't need these meds. I wish I was to the point of Aleve or something else. The nausea med helped miraculously.

They sure do. I'll have to try the yogurt. I just started taking just Percocet instead of all the other heavy narcotics as well. I'm trying to see if I can slowly wean myself off of even that. It's only been two weeks since the last surgery so I sure as heck don't want to be in a screaming match because of the pain. Gotta think though. Doc wanted me on Vicodin, but the room was spinning on just one dose. So that's a no go for sure.

zartan · August 30th, 2009, 12:22 AM

I did tons of drugs when I was high school / collage age. terribly stupid. Did I say stupid.

But now I announce if I have to take even a nYqul for a cold. Just in case I have a bad reaction. How we grow up!!!

I hate pain meds Becky. So sorry it is the lesser of the evil for you. Hopefully in a weeks time you will be much better..

noche_caliente · August 30th, 2009, 07:17 AM

the vicodin is supposed to be more mild than the percocet is, so I would hope it would cause less reactions...
Next time we chat I'll tell you all about what happened when I was taking 2 percocet every 4 hours for my shattered knee... now I stick to ibuprofen - 800 mg every 8 hours seems to work pretty well for me, but things can still hurt quite a bit with it - not very nice on the tummy though

They gave me Vicodin when I went down, but it made me sick as a dog...changed to Darvacet and all was well, except that it didn't do as good a job on the pain. They told me not to take ibuprofen because it slows the bone from healing.
Sorry to hear your feeling ill, I hope they can help you out with something that won't make you sick.
We're still keeping you in our thoughts every day!

We're going Green in 2010 .. right?

2010 for sure, but NO WAY on the green! Gotta be something else for me. Maybe I'll get one painted gold. Who knows.

Verus Cidere · September 1st, 2009, 11:42 PM

I've always wondered if you can special order a Ninjette in candy lime green, the color Kawi used on one of the ZX-14's. AMAZING COLOR!

alittle fun with photobucket. I like this Becky!!

Sweet!

Had to borrow my husband's laptop to check e-mail and the boards.

My laptop took a crap......arghhh...blue screen of death and now windows decides it doesn't even want to load. To heck with it. I'm getting a new one. I've been hitching along on my last one for 6 years. I need a blu-ray player anyways.

Gottta love Dell credit.

noche_caliente · September 3rd, 2009, 02:46 PM

When it rains it pours I guess, but at least you've got a good excuse to upgrade to something that will let you watch the best movies!

Strider · September 3rd, 2009, 04:03 PM

No Green huh? Oh well ...
that purple looks sweet too

Custom Seat Creations · September 5th, 2009, 02:29 AM

Yesterday was the first time I got to see all the x-rays that have been taken. Lots of breaks and hardware installed.

THE BEST IMAGE SO FAR. I ALWAYS HAVE A PROTECTOR AND HEATED BLANKET:

Alex · September 5th, 2009, 06:18 AM

That's some serious hardware, Becky! Glad you've got a warm furry friend helping to keep your spirits up...

Verus Cidere · September 5th, 2009, 02:38 PM

I gotta say, they really had to do some work on your foot!

Feel better!

Strider · September 5th, 2009, 02:57 PM

Oh Becky! It made me squirm in my chair to see those pics!
Take care of yourself and rest up!
Glad you have a cute kitty to keep you company

Becky, Vicodin is super strong stuff. Do be careful with Aleve (Naproxen Sodium) Always do that stuff with milk or yogurt or ice cream. Looked over the accident report you posted---You had a S--T Hot first responder! Did a few broken femurs in Nam. That`s a damn big bone. You are going to get through this. Looking forward to a hell of a party in Colorado Springs---Wall to wall Ninjettes--The Harley crowd will go Bozo.

Sailariel · September 5th, 2009, 03:44 PM

Becky, Thanks for posting those X-Rays. Your Orthopedic Surgeon is definitely a keeper. That is some exquisite work. You may be hurting now, but in the very near future there won`t be any pain--you will just be able to tell when it is going to rain when your leg feels wierd. Don`t ask how I know. Actually, you will be more accurate than your weather man.

Custom Seat Creations · September 5th, 2009, 04:53 PM

Alex,

I had two wonderful surgeons. Both crackerjack in my opinion! I'm looking forward to the "Glad I'm alive" party next spring or summer. I'll have to start a separate thread for sure on that subject.

Thanks for the encouragement. The pain is most definitely less than what I was feeling six weeks ago. I have to work on the strength part now. Baby steps for sure.

Sailariel · September 5th, 2009, 05:24 PM

Definitely work with your PT person. I can`t say enough about your surgeon--the guy is aces. I have a fairly good medical background. When I came back from Nam in 70, they had so many Combat Medics--so they sent us to school and we became PA`s. Worked in the ER for quite a few years and quit when we started getting the gunshot wounds and stabbings in--changed careers. Also moved to Maine--less crime. That X-ray of the Femur looks really decent. The ankle looks great! That`s some real cutting edge stuff your doc is doing. I can rest easy--still will keep the prayers coming--but you are in really good hands. That surgeon is awesome. I like your cat--we have three Maine Coon Cats.

Custom Seat Creations · September 5th, 2009, 06:33 PM

I have to do the PT at home. Can't afford the doctor's visits and have no way to get to therapy sessions. They've prescribed a regiment at home which I'm sticking to faithfully. Have to. I need to get back up and running. Can't just sit on a couch forever. Thanks for the prayers.

noche_caliente · September 6th, 2009, 06:16 PM

My goodness Becky! That's nuts. I hurt just looking at those, but the guys are right, you're going to be a walking weather woman! And I don't know about you, but my kitties just make everything better when they sit with me and start the purr factory

lockie · September 7th, 2009, 07:31 PM

Good to see you're on the road to recovery, physically and emotionally. Those x rays are amazing. It's a wonder what they can do theses days. Hope it all works out as soon as possible.

Take Care

Thanks Don. I'm amazed every day that they put me back together so well. I'll keep the positive spirits up and work on the physical therapy. I dream of riding soon again. I think another six weeks in casts and then I'll be free. Wohoo!

empire00 · September 8th, 2009, 12:07 AM

i broke my wrist and messed up all the tendons and ligaments in my ankle bad last fall. i hit a deer on my first ninjette. it was 6 days after it was off the truck. to make maters worse i am basicly imposible to medicate most pain meds do next to nothing for me. just recently i broke my collar bone when i cased a landing on a 35ft uphill double on my mx bike. luckly i have a high tolllarance for pain.

something that i always try to remeber. pain is temporary and like anything else it passes better if you get your mind off it and have some fun.

also just to be sure you know there is some personal info on the xrays.

camaroz1985 · September 8th, 2009, 06:49 AM

Wow that is a lot of hardware. Hope you feel better soon. Just be glad you got everything fixed right. Keep your spirits up (like you seem to be doing), and I'm sure you will make a full recovery.

Isn't it amazing how your cat knows just when you need them the most

athimmel · September 8th, 2009, 08:12 AM

Oh man. Looking at those x-rays reminded me why I could never have gone into the medical field. I got urpy just looking at them! Hope you're doing better, and best wishes on a speedy recovery.

Momaru · September 8th, 2009, 08:49 AM

Goodness Becky! Like Noche, just looking at those pictures makes me ache. Glad you've got a fuzzy buddy to keep you company though. Keep up the good spirits, you're half way there!

Custom Seat Creations · September 9th, 2009, 08:27 AM

Yet another update....the insurance company won't pay the entire amount owed on the bike...yippy. Yet another chat with the lawyer to see how to progress....sigh...

kkim · September 9th, 2009, 10:09 AM

your insurance company should be going after the other party to cover the difference.

Here's to a speedy recovery, Becky. You are indeed lucky to be alive. Greet every day forward with your new found perspective and perhaps it might help manage the pain you must endure during the healing process.... the cat must really help, too.

noche_caliente · September 9th, 2009, 02:59 PM

Becky, I know that I remember several folks on KF having that problem last year, but in the end they were able to sort it out - I'll see if I can find some of the threads for you a little later

I hurt just looking at those, but the guys are right, you're going to be a walking weather woman! And I don't know about you, but my kitties just make everything better when they sit with me and start the purr factory __________________________________________________ Progrip tank pad, blue rim stripes, blue Pazzos, Roaring Toyz lowering kit, Puig DB in dark smoke, Cortech sport tail, super mini tank, and saddlebags, OES swingarm spools and Intuitive frame sliders

Those x rays are amazing. It's a wonder what they can do theses days. Hope it all works out as soon as possible. Take Care

Wow that is a lot of hardware. Hope you feel better soon. Just be glad you got everything fixed right. Keep your spirits up (like you seem to be doing), and I'm sure you will make a full recovery. Isn't it amazing how your cat knows just when you need them the most

Looking at those x-rays reminded me why I could never have gone into the medical field. I got urpy just looking at them! Hope you're doing better, and best wishes on a speedy recovery.

kkim Join Date: Nov 2008 Posts: Too much.	your insurance company should be going after the other party to cover the difference. Here's to a speedy recovery, Becky. You are indeed lucky to be alive. Greet every day forward with your new found perspective and perhaps it might help manage the pain you must endure during the healing process.... the cat must really help, too.

Becky, I know that I remember several folks on KF having that problem last year, but in the end they were able to sort it out - I'll see if I can find some of the threads for you a little later http://www.kawiforums.com/1332257-post28.html and here's the really good one: http://www.kawiforums.com/two-wheele...ml#post1276794 and a follow-up on it: http://www.kawiforums.com/two-wheele...ml#post1284503 __________________________________________________ Progrip tank pad, blue rim stripes, blue Pazzos, Roaring Toyz lowering kit, Puig DB in dark smoke, Cortech sport tail, super mini tank, and saddlebags, OES swingarm spools and Intuitive frame sliders Last futzed with by noche_caliente; September 9th, 2009 at 04:35 PM.
