I heard a rumor that some serious jugging is good therapy. Hope you get better soon Ben cause you are the "spark" that keeps things going!!

[BIGDAVE]

Yep thats not a good thing. Debbi had it done a few years back. You need anything give me a shout.

[reedlv]

Mr. Ben I do not think dialing a phone will aggravate it. Give me a call from time to time. Maybe I can get some time away from work in the next couple of months to do some jugging. I will give you a call and see if you would like to go.

hope ya get better soon, we'll keep ya in our prayers

Use your toes Ben. We need you.

No wait. I just pictured that. DON'T use your toes. We can wait on you to recoup.

Second thought is to try my technique and type with only one finger.

Keep reading and hurry back to posting.

[Gentleben]

You are the CO piper don't let me down!!

[Steve]

Hope you get better real, real quick Ben. From what I've heard that's no fun at all to go through. I'd sure take Saundecw up on his suggestion though, it couldn't hurt =)

Steve

PS, if Piper's the CO then I'm in deep doo-doo, huh?

Mr. Ben,

[reedlv]

Mr. Ben,
Is that hand injury from typing to much or is it possible? It could be long term effects of falling out of to many boats and into the water in numerous ways over the years? Curious minds want to know? (HA-HA)

[Gentleben]

Well I don't know my wife would like to say it is from the 4623 posts on this site and hundreds others on other sites.She wants to use that so i will back of fthe comp and then she got me all kinds of stuff so that I could stil type.

If I'd I knew I was gonna live this long I'd taken better care of myself :silly:

[Gentleben]

[tylerdan]

Vernon, we are happy for you to put this info on the site if that doctor can make Ben's typing good enough for me to understand what he is saying!

I will second Dr. Horn. He wrist back together when I shattered it. I was playing coed softball for a youth fund raiser. I discovered I could have wrote them a check for $1000 and came out cheaper. Would have also had a lot less pain.

[Gentleben]

Hope that surgery goes well Ben! I suffered from the "Instrument Fitters Disease" for years before getting the surgery. The results will be good, I think they use less invasive techniques now. Good luck!
