Well someone asked for an update on the old one. I took him to his doctor for a checkup after 3 weeks and boy was the doctor upset when Max asked if he could ride the 4 wheel bike as he had been a little, in the doctors words he asked Max if he had a death wish, this comment soon straightened Max up for a few days. Max's comment when we got home was at least I now know I can't drive ( the physio told him this when he left hospital but this wasn't good enough for him). Max managed not to drive for the next 4 weeks and the next checkup with the doctor all went well and everything is healing great, so far, still a while to go before he can do very much with that arm but at least he can drive again (thank goodness for that). As for the donar bone no it didn't come from one of our sheep or cows but from another human, (that's all we know).
The doctor seems to think he won't have to have it done again so long as he behaves (if he does damage it again I don't think he'll be game enough to back to the same doctor again).
Lynn your wife hits the nail on the head with her comments.
Thanks for your interest in the old man and I think he might survive me now that hopefully the worst is over.
