Great work by an outstanding sports medicine guy. Many bad things could have happened and none did.

I appreciate the kind wishes, Ken.
The pic is not quite what I imagined it might be, but.... keep on healing. In the meantime --and maybe as time moves on-- may I consider you as 'Mechanical Mike'? Or do you prefer 'Bionic Mike'? Choice is yours, of course.

Metal in your body. I know the feeling. May you have many more vertical feet left in you. vz

"Old Fudd with Good Metal" is probably closer to the truth, Jim.

Have fun on the slopes Mike. Last Friday I slipped on ice. I spent today at the Orthopedics office. No break on the x ray. He thinks I tore the calf muscle off the bone or tore a tendon. I'm being sent for an MRI next. Today was day 2 out of work. First time in 34 years. I'm already tearing the hair out of my head!! Gary

Great news on the relatively fast recovery. Very interesting pictures, but artistically not your best work.

These are the shots that got my orthopedic surgeon to say that I could return to the slopes on the 3 month anniversary of the crash (March 10).
Mike, looks like a lot of metal holding it together. Be careful if you go back to the slopes. The photos of your xrays are awesome.
I am very happy for you being told by your Dr that it is safe to go back.
