Almost a week ago, I tripped on uneven sidewalk running downhill and spent the holiday weekend dealing with this:
(fyi- this is not my x-ray)

What are the odds? A broken right collarbone that I had to get surgery on....a metal plate and some screws...that I'll have to re-operate on at the end of summer and get it removed....with 2 kids and a move coming up. Thank goodness for a doting husband, angellic friends and a loving mother who is literally taking over for my hands the next 2 weeks. I supposedly can't lift teddy (what I'm basing my healing process around) for 3-4 weeks. Atleast I'll become quite creative and talented with my left arm in the mean time. So sorry for my lack of posts for the next while.

aaahhhhhhh ... I still can't believe it. you're such a trooper and have such a great attitude. keep it up and don't hesitate to call whenever you need help.
Oh man... that really sucks. I literally can't imagine not using your right arm. I broke my collarbone years ago so I can sympathize with the pain... not fun! So sorry and best of luck with all that you have going on!
I am SO sorry. I cannot imagine how much of a trooper you must be. Didn't you break your arm and have a plate and screws put in it years ago as well? Maybe better luck in the future in the broken bones department. :(
You must have been running super fast to do that! When I run, I go so slow when I trip I am never able to actually get enough momentum to face plant?! Get well soon!
we heard about the injury! sorry, that sucks (and i hate that word, but what better describes the situation??)...so bad. get well soon and get out here!
So sorry about your collarbone...not cool! xoxo annette
