So sorry to hear about your accident. Too bad you had to be building a deck instead of something safer ............. Like PACKING FOR A TRIP THIS COMING WEEKEND. Sometime those twistie, snappie, joint crack, fractures can be hard to treat. They might have to make a complete break to be sure it's all in proper alignment. or............. I think they can do it with that mobile traction setup but not to worry. You may only be in an upper-half-body cast with a few rods sticking out at different angles with pulleys at the ends. Mr. Lixy may even want to take you along on the next fishing trip. It won't be on long and you'll be like new by the time you have to take the pool down and the 5 month of snow shoveling therapy will work out just about right.
