Hi Guys....

Firstly, thanks to all of you who conveyed good wishes......

So, a week since my op and there's good news and bad news....

The good news is that the damage to my rotator cuff and bicep is much less than they thought that it would be judging by the MRI scan.....

The bad news is that most of the pain is being caused by arthritis which they didn't pick up on the MRI....

It's early days yet but the doc is of the opinion that I may have played my last bum note.....

Physiotherapy begins this coming Monday and I've been told to bring a bass with me so that the therapist can try to figure a way to get me playing again without too much pain.....

Fingers very firmly crossed that all works out ok.....

Hope that all of you guys with gigs this weekend knock it out of the ballpark....:thumbsup:

Cheers!

We can't even get rid of you with surgery...I mean, it's good to hear you are doing good post-op. One question though. Won't it be hard to play bass with your fingers crossed?

What I meant to say is: Welcome back. We missed you.
I don't know how those other words got typed. It must be like when you are thinking one thing and saying something completely different. Example: One morning my wife and I were having breakfast and I was thinking, "Honey, would you please pass the salt?" What came out was, "You've ruined my life, you fat, ugly cow."
