Shoulder update (Patreon)

Hey, gang!

Sort of joke: I got good news and bad news about my shoulder. The good news is they can definitely fix it with surgery. 

Heading under the knife on 01 Nov. Long-ish recovery time with my left arm in an immobilizer sling. Will have full use of dominant hand but, unsure how pain management will go. So, I will still be putting my Patreon on pay-hold for the month of November as I can't absolutely guarantee work. Sorry. Spirit willing and all that...

In other news, the doc was amazingly good when I met with him pre-op. He explained EVERYTHING about my injury and how the surgery would be performed (he even drew pictures of how they will anchor the tendon back onto my humerous). Except for the parasitic  American insurance industry, the state of modern medicine is great. FYI for those injured in the USA (and have good insurance): If you've got an injury to a joint, always get a referral to Sports Medicine rather than a standard orthopedic. They always seem to care just a bit more. Not sure why, but they do.
