Wrist drop/radial nerve palsy

Posting via a cell phone, and with one hand. 
Nothing can stop a determined man.

Yeah i support phone with left hand, and type with both thumbs. using  r hand to move phone so L thumb  can type. got the moto x working but have to go to verizon to activate free sim card. they supply. i didnt want to go because of their aggressiv2 sales ppl. but i must. ive dropped this phone 8 times. this is 3rd time ive had to rewrite this reply.. cant use pc keyboard on pc unless i angle it at 45 deg.  i may have to save funds And get a wifi hub and a program called "dragon naturally speakin" while at church temple, i was asked to take part in a ritual. during which id sit in this chair.  and brace myself against armrest, the girl sat in front of me during ceremonyji placed hands on top of her head.. ( cqnnot elaborate on ritual sorry) after 1which i fell getting down from chair.  a guy there made a less than respectful comment wondering if i was on drugs. my bishop saod "yes he is. its pain medication. he fell because he broke his leg here.. later on in temple courtyard ,  i went to take a picture with the youth from our church. i fell. ( fall number 6) after that, i went to group to pose for picture.( almost had fall number 7.) bishop held me up. ( actually fell 8 times) fall 7 was on way to car. fall 8 was into tub at house while using bathroom. anyhoo, lol
tomorrow i see ortho. he moved 3 others to make room for me. i saind when making appt, is that nec2ssary,? i can wait, Nurse said NO you CANNOT AND NO YOU WONT. dr reat  said its urgent you come then.  this terrifies me. i want to see the damage. ill post it in legs thread. ill get xopies of films. and post better pics here sunday from my office at church. heck what did i do there?
Everyones calling me.. unless i passed out from pain idk. i dont recall doing that. ride home was fun. i kept sliding out from seat. even whild belted in . . with this leg/ankle fracture, i cant stay in seat. leg wont support me. inless i lean forwards. anyhoo. i may end up getting that electric wheelchair. the KD company wont sell theirs on insurance. my insurance covers those.. but i wont get the jet 3. or hoveround. because my father   drivds a small car. it wont fit. the KD smart chair folds up and weighs close to the rental chair. but its almost 2 grand. my "armstrong" propulsion system, it took a hit when my hand lost strength. i still can use it on chair though. if im going to have to be in a chair lobg term, i want electric. so i can get around tthis area. anyhoo dinners done cooking. will be back later on tonight. take care my friends.

Yup. an older amd dual at  2.6 4gb ddr2 1gb ddr5 GPU i want to save up and get a 1tb HDD AS A SECONDARY HDD. eventually a phenom quad at 3.2 but as it is my pc will run it.
Aaron.  4he second Hdd is needed, because i can hear the hammers clatttering on my secondary. it came out of quadzilla.
Aaron

The OS is Windows 7 64 bit
BTW i mentioned Quadzilla
It had same OS
BUT, i went from a dual core CPU
TO   an AWESOME   AMD CPU
TO AN Amd phenom X4  940 black edition. those things were PRICY IN THE DAY. almost 400. i grabbed one at 59 on ebay put a BTF90 cooler ( shaped like a butterfly hence the BTF.) I POWERED it up and postwhored here a bit. but my comp showed only 2 cores.. so i had to flash the bios. if it was unsuccesful id ruin a computer so i postwhored a bit more, announced my intentions, then signed off and ran the bios flash. powered it back up......  SUCCESS !.
Showed 4 cores @  3.0 the black ed. phenom allowed me to OC. soooooo, i did. i ran a test on temps. 39c  on temps. i removed the BTF,  and polished the CPU. PUT a dab of arctic silver on it, re mounted the BTF, AND POWERED it up. underclocked the ram, ( 4gb) then OCed the CPU) WENT FROM 3.0 x4 to 3.9 x4. it wasnt happy beyond that.
anyhoo, then temp tested that. temps went to 45c. still within the good range. i had 5 120mm fans. it was LOUD.  LOL. IT WAS NAMED either HOOVER ( sounded like a vaccuum. or quadzilla.) ANYHOOOOOOOOO, back to thread subject. i cant get comfy. if i lean back into chair, i lose grip on this phone. so im hunched over. hey it works lol.
in a few hours ( 10am) i find the wrath of ortho. and maybe the wrath of beuro. err neuro. hell ive got to get on a better phone. lol. i am terrified though . there was some significant damage done, because i cannot support my own weight for long. anyhoo thats it for now. 
Tomorrow i finish the final instructions.  err a will of sorts. if i pass away after or during spinal  surgery next week, i am writing down my final post. on paper and sealing in envelope. i will post before surgery. if a james croy posts on this thread it means i didnt make it. he will post my message on my account, sign his name, then probably err WILL
PM buddha  who will lock my account. BUT this i feel wont happen. only a very small adverse side effect chance. after i leve hosp next thursday, i will retrieve that envelope and will burn it. im looking fwd to postwhoring alot during that surgeries recovery. tomorrow i find out the verdict on the enkles. err ankles. i rolled right oneso may have to re do the ORiF. i may get the Ti plate. it would be replaced. id use old plate as a UNIQUE keychain. lol. the next few weeks will SUCK. ANYHOLL time for bed
Aaron

Hmmmmm, i thought this over from a modbposition as well as from a security standpoint. and realised that this would be a security issue. so theress a change. i will set up an account in his name. if IT  happens,bhe will log into HIS account and post the message i will ask him to post followed by whatever he chooses to post. so if james croy posts in this thread, yall will know IT happened.  some say im thinking badly or thinking negatively. so im hoping he EOESNT post here Eh?. now moving back to thread. im doing this because gstwin is part of my life and i OWE yall this. as wladziu said " your body is a wreck" that i NOW agree. i pretty much thqt ive got 2 surgeries in the VERY NEAR future. the left and possibly right ankle. as well as the SCS implant surgery. both of wheich in a weeks time. THAT  TERRIFIES me.K   d   IDK if my body N    can handl it.
Aaron        e

Well, no surgery yet. ive been diagnosed with weakened bone structure, aka charcot foot...   so NO weight bearilg. ( ecept ( bathroom and kitchen) fracture was an impact type. with a weakened bone structure, fractures will be easy  to come by . soooooo, surgery wise tye SCS is still on f
w   for wed  of next week.. this will be fun. going to try to rig up pc to broadcast to the old glass TV.
aaron

GOT bqack from doc. no surgery. but found out i do have a soft/brittle bone disease, and a charcot foot. im stuck with this for life. so he casted it in ferrari red.  i go back in 3 weeks. idk how i broke it. when we jwalk in we do so reverently. when jwe talk, we do  likewise. yet somehow i had qa high impact fracture. the hand is a wait and see. if it repairs itsf e it will do so in maybe 2 mos.. if not i get fist that curls under arm and surgery is tried. success is not great. but no strength in left hand now. will someone shoot me? this sucks.
Aaron

If you have brittle bones and that plate in there..   even though it provides support for heal up. .. would the screws in the bone also put tension on that area as well as make 'holes' ?

And a genuine question! .. (not having a go). .. what's a reverent walk like? ... slow? Wedding march step? Glide like a monk/ nun? Just quietly? ... heard reverent tone before but not walk!?

Reverent tone/walk = HIGHLY respectful. walking quietly, speaking in hushed tones. i was walking slowly and quietly. and i fall repeatedly i collect myself, stand up and proceed. stifling yelps of pain. which is raging now. heh someone shoot me .   i cant use my left hand. had a dra1ing i needed to finish.  i used left hand for the details. i CANT EVEN HOLD A PENCIL !  am working on writing a hymn which i am plann7ng on  a christmas program debut. im handling the lyrics, bishop is working on the musical side of it.. more to come
Aaron

But you'll go next time in the wheelchair eh?! .. someone to push you in etc? .. there's a good chap!

Walk info makes sense.. just hadn't heard term used like that... 

Usually if I walk slow and quiet I'm sneaking up on someone to scare a yell out of them

The whole building is marble. tbh i didnt notice any ramps. this scares me my friend. a bunch. i think the wrong way ill break somrthing :/ idk how much longer i can deal with this trivial BS. I SEE MY CARDIOLOGIST monday, tuesday ive got nothing. i begin fast at midnight. then report to hosp wed at 11am. ill get first epidural anaeshesia an hour later then at 1pm it begins.
Aaron

Good luck with your procedure. I hope everything goes well. Pity you can't get a full body transplant while you're at it, but maybe next year.   

LOL indeed
Aaron

Barry Barry Barry! ..  this is the digital age man! .. body transplants are so passé.... it's all transfer of awareness and mind to a fresh chassis! ..  a brain transplant if you will!

I am asking our bishop if i can  give the invocation ( opening prayer)  or the closing orayer this sunday or , jumping protocol, a short sermon. the way the lds church works is we dont have a paid clergy. we have  3 weeks out of month 4 people who are chosen to give a talk on  subjeccts chosen by  church HQ in salt lake city. the rest is done by person giving the talks/sermons. 4TH  week is fast and testimony subday. we fast for 2 meal periods, and subject matter of talks is up to us. reason i asked to talk early is this months fast/testimony sunday happens 4 days following my surgery 4 days after.ive just got the urging to speak THIS sunday. IF something happens, i wish that i was able to speak before my talk on sunday. not after. by proxy. if GOD forbid something happens, I love yall. and this site as a family.
Aaron

We're all here wishing you the best.
The Tard Farm regulars.
The least we can do is keep you entertained thru all this. 

Yes indeed! .. not that luck is required... reckon Yama just too ornery to drop off the twig yet eh!?
