Guest guest Posted April 12, 2006 Report Share Posted April 12, 2006 Ken, I hope, with all my heart, that are feeling well soon. I just started with this site and it has done a world of good for me. I never have a problem remembering my age. I'm 34 but feel 80 all the time, so I understand wanting to act a little nuts when you feel good. Don't beat yourself up over this, the pain will do it for you. lol. Hugs and smiles hun, and feel better soon. Janet kenneth samuelsen <squarehead52@...> wrote: Greetings! This is ken....

Guest guest Posted April 12, 2006 Report Share Posted April 12, 2006 Oh, Ken, I am so, so sorry that you have had this accident. Don't be hard on yourself, we all do silly things like that. It's hard to accept that we have grown older and have problems, and it's fun to do things that other people are doing. I am so sorry that you had to pay for this bit of fun with so much pain. I will be praying that the doctor's will be able to operate on your leg and repair the fracture, and that they will then be able to take care of your knee injuries. Giant cyber hugs and prayers for you, my friend, keep positive! Kathe in CA > --------------------------------- > How low will we go?

Guest guest Posted April 13, 2006 Report Share Posted April 13, 2006 How awful Ken. I'm so sorry your attempts to have some fun ended up so bad. When I tried riding a REAL bicycle after being on a stationary one for years, I wound up breaking my leg. Yes, I had to get pins and plates put in because the bone wouldn't set. I hope you are luckier and don't have to have surgery, but I have to say it was nice to get the rotten cast off. I broke mine right above the knee. I feel your pain. Take care of yourself and don't call yourself stupid! Sometimes we just want to feel and do normal things. You are always in my prayers. a On Apr 12, 2006, at 8:18 AM, kenneth samuelsen wrote: > Greetings! This is ken....

Guest guest Posted April 14, 2006 Report Share Posted April 14, 2006 Ken, I am so sorry that this has happened to you. I'm also very sorry that I am just now writing, but I just now read your e-mail. I hurt so much, I dont write or go thru my emails very often. I have already said a prayer for you. That is the best thing there is faith and prayer. Trust me I know. My 14 year old son got a very rare disease in July of 2003. The docs didn't think he would live, but there was a lot of praying going on, and to make a long story short, on tuesday the docs thought he was going to die, that was in the morning, he got saved that afternoon and friday morning we went home.!!! He got baptised that sunday!!! So you see I know for a fact that prayers work, and miracles happen, so keep the faith and keep praying. I will too.
