Stop in for a cup of coffee

The first time I separated my shoulder I also broke my shoulder blade. Bad bicycle wreck. I had my then six year old daughter sit next to me in the truck and shift gears for me. She got a new pair of inline skates for her trouble.
The second time separated it I was deployed. Doc said he couldn't tell how bad it was due to a lack of mri etc.. Offered to fly be back to Germany for treatment and I passed. I wore a sling for a month or so and it healed up over time. The last time I did it I had walked through wet grass and up a wooden car ramp. I slipped, put my arm out to break my fall, and with the angle of the ramp and my previous separations it went again. I never had surgery on any of them. The last one though, the ortho doctor warned me to be careful because he didn't think I could do it again and not have surgery. Oh really, here hold my beer...haha!! No seriously for anyone who's never separated a shoulder it is really painful. I hope to never do it again.
