[paintballnsc112]

[tripnotemple]

yeah, how the hell did you manage that? Jeez, I'm glad I'm not you..... um, no offense or anything.

[SaVaC]

2 years ago a 30 lb rock fell 3 stories and hit my right shoulder, damaging the nerves leaving the spine going to the shoulder. the shoulder muscles never would hold the arm bone in place, so now the arm, collarbone, and shoulderblade are all screwed together through a plate. i had that surgery jan 29th '03, and have to wear a brace that holds the entire right arm/shoulder in place until the 3 bones grow together. probably 3 months 24-7. spongebaths only. i get to sleep sitting up or in a chair. from the shoulder to the elbow it will be immobile, but from the elbow to the hand it will move. 50% of sensation in the whole arm and hand is gone forever. but hey - im alive. here is the brace- the staples run across the top and almost to the neck, 30 in all.

Ouch, that sucks. By the way how were you in a situation for a rock to fall on your shoulder.

[BOB_IS_COOL]

sorry to hear that. well obviosly you can still use a computer so invest in games like RA2 and YR. and get counter strike. all cools games.

[smg60user]

i was working on a construction site. it fell off of scaffolding. i can only use the 1 hand for another 2 months. then i might get some good games.

[Natural Newbie]

Man, so why is there rocks on scaffolding?

[smg60user]

they were being installed on the exterior of the building, and i guess 1 fell off or was dropped.

[E r y k]

man i feel so sorry for you.. thats really got to suck... how do you get around nowadays?

[canadianpber]

so why could nt u play when the brace gets taken off?

[smg60user]

i might try. but if i were to fall on my right side for whatever reason, it might break screws out of the bone. but i might still try in about a year.

[Lil_Wick]

counter-strike jwns u all!:eek: :D

[Grim_Reaper999]

it looks like aliens warped u up and conducted experiments on u......i bet that tickled.....

[Sc0tTy]

**** man, that sucks...get that game digital paintball! good game... mayby you can be the first cyborg!!:laugh: j/k

[Chris Devers]

Get a remote and a pod pack. Get a lighter marker and play back. No reason anything can stop your passions.

[BOB_IS_COOL]

you could use a strap that would alow you to put the rest of the weigh on your good shoulder.

[smg60user]

if i get authorized by the doc to play, play i will. the time will be 2 years already plus however much longer. its just been so long.

[tippycustom]

that sucks. i would hate to have that happen to me. but what has passed, passed so you need to move on and become the first majorly disabled widely know pb player. you could design a gun that works good under your circumstances and still play.
