    I normally skip over these threads, but this one caught my eye. Breaking your hip is pretty rough. I wish him the best.

    He got out of surgery today at 1PM and did great, and is now recovering. Steel rod down there on the hip with a plate and screws... Thanks again for the prayers and support, it's been a long day for me and my family.
