    Glad you're OK. Hit by a semi could have been a lot worse. Heal up and get well soon.

    Get well soon. We will start a GoFundMe for a package of new underwear...I'm betting you will need them after that!

    Glad to hear you are OK. 3 years ago, I broke my collar bone in a cycling accident. It sucks... and takes a while to recover.

    A slow process but coming along. I had a plate put in last Wednesday. There are a few muscles that are completely locked up by evening and really painful. Dr. told me that everyone experiences numbness where the plate is and I can confirm that is true. He said it will gradually get better over 2 years but never completely go away.

    Hang in there... Broke my clavicle in a 3 wheeler accident 20 years. Starting to now have tendons locking up around it. Not fun at all

    Yes it sucks. Here was my x-ray before surgery.

    Yikes, that looks ugly. Hopefully you will be better sooner, rather than later.

    Didn't Aaron Rogers break both his (not at the same time)? Funny how when a football player breaks a collar bone we say "it's not too serious of an injury" but when us normal guys bust it, we realize it's not so minor after all. I'm not a fan of opiates, as I have seen many lives destroyed, but boy - taken responsibly - they sure do help get through things like this.

    Too bad about the car, but that can be replaced... you cannot...
    Praying for a speedy and complete recovery
