    Dang..... you need to be careful at your advanced age. Praying for quick recovery and for Kim.... she's gonna need it.

    You should probably get a motorized scissor lift.

    I was just in Jamaica for a few days and all of those people on the beach around me must have fallen off of ladders, too.

    Seriously, I'm sorry to hear this. Relax, heal up, listen to the doctors. Wishing a speedy and full recovery for you

    Just saw this this morning. Take it easy bro and do as the Dr’s say, back injuries are not a playing matter.

  9. Wow! I just noted this report a moment ago. You certainly have my best wishes for rapid recovery. You are an asset and a mainstay of this HAMB community. Simply leaving a message of encouragement seems like a small step. Too small. I'll be watching how things go with you and looking for opportunities to lighten your load in more tangible ways if I can.
    God bless you, my friend.

    My Mom used to call this kind of unplanned aerial excursion, "Doing a Peter Pan".
    I've been there. It's all great fun, 'till the landing.
    Get better !

  13. Wow, sorry to hear. While you're healing I bet your building your next project in your head.

    Ladders are my biggest fear when moving stuff around in the shop. Listen to the docs and the nurse's, let your body heal up before pushing yourself. Not sure how old you are but for me at 67 I'm having a tough time remembering that.
    Sending positive wishes

  19. Praying for you Chris! No doubt hard to keep a guy like you down without going stir crazy. Time to sit back, relax and work through all your plans....but double check your conclusions after the meds wear off just in case you dreamed up something wacky. LOL

    Just Damn! I've had my own run ins with broken fiberglass but that was my fault and I faired better than the '77 Vette I totaled. Hang in there and we will all be checking on your progress.

    Hi Chris,
    Thanks for chiming in with your reply, and keeping up your sense of humor.
    We [me and Kerry] were really worried about what could've been a spinal injury.

    Please don't be like Kerry, who I describe as an "Impatient patient", and take whatever time is needed to heal properly.
    Kerry said he is forever grateful for the help you gave him on the HAMB

    Hope it doesn't hurt you to laugh.

    It wasn't a Hoffman Group MII ( or ladder!) was it?
