Be careful you don't "re break" them just when you think they are getting better. It sucks and I feel for ya man. I recall crushed toes and that was a whole lotta fun too...

OUCH! ...sorry to hear.

One bright spot, you get to look forward to your left hand 'telling you', ahead of time, that the weather is about to change...

I'm just worried I'm going to be useless while we're trying to work on MY truck. But I'll do all I can.

Don't worry about that...you'll be the supervisor, but try to keep the yelling down...too difficult getting work done when you're being yelled at!

I feel for ya and am praying for a quick recovery. I had both hands broke at the same time in my twenties. It was no fun at all and I felt completely useless. Do what the doc says and get better so you can wrench on your truck.

That is one of those breaks that constantly reminds you that it's broken by sending a pain blasting up your arm.

Ouch! Man, that's gotta hurt. But I like the color. Do they make it in a urethane? JK. Prayers for a speedy recovery.
