Norcal Spotted and BS Thread

I watched an officer shoot at a car that backed into his cruiser on a stop. The dude tried to run but TA'd a few miles up the road. The following day, of the rounds fired, most were high and hit buildings according to the news.

 

Shooting weak hand is pretty damn easy too; just need to do it often and it becomes close to second nature.

 

Already sold my old 33s already. Sorry.

Happy Father's Day to all you gentlemen. Hope the kids are giving you a back massage and the wife is making a nice dinner.

Unfortunately due to severe back pain I'm spending my Father's Day in the hospital. I dont post much here but im on TW everyday lurking, reading and liking comments. I think all you gentlemen are a great group.

I have pretty much been stuck in bed for 3 weeks and now and it is definitely taking a toll mentally. Just reaching out for some much needed support and positive feedback. Thanks gentlemen and enjoy your Father's Day.

 

prayers going out!! Happy Father’s Day!

 

Hang in there man!!!! Sending positive vibes your way!!! Happy fathers day!!!

 

Stay strong brother. I know what its like and trust me, it takes a toll on you mentally. I woke up hurting today but have had a pile of logs sitting by the pool so i decided to split them since my little guy was still sleeping. Fuck ryobi splitters. Lol. Ended up having to swing the mallet...... Now I really hurt

Stay positive my friend. Maybe a cortisone or tordal (spelling?) Shot .. Those help me

 

Thank you a lot gentlemen. The positive words go a long way. I actually tried to jump in my Tacoma and drive it to the ER last night and I haven't been able to drive it for so long that the battery was dead lol. Had to take the "mom mobile". Anyways I thank you again for the kind words and hope everyone is enjoying their Sunday.

 

Damnit Dean!
I'm camped in feather falls for a few months so if you need help with anything I won't be far. Just has to be late afternoon or evening. I try to pop off the hill at least one night a week.
Hang in there man. Just stay positive and relax as best you can.

 

Thanks John. I'm doing ok just need to figure out whats going on with my back so I can start a treatment plan to get better. The offer is much appreciated.

 

Man, that’s hard. Hospitals aren’t much fun. I hope you get a solution soon.

 

Thank you. Ya not much fun at all and I can imagine this will be an expensive visit. Dr says i have a slipped disc in my back that will most likely require surgery in the future. Hopefully i can treat it with Physical Therapy and other non surgical treatments first. Hopefully I'll be going home today.

 

Ugh. Be good to yourself and put off the surgery as long as you're able-maybe something better will come in the future.

 

Ya the thought of surgery scares me. Hear a lot of stories that surgery helped people only short term or that the surgery has caused more pain. Definitely don't want that.

 

I had spinal fusion surgery on L4/L5 and L5/S1 in 2010. It was successful and made me feel 20 again. But now 11 years later above and below the fusion is going bad because it has to compensate.

 

That’s also true. My thought has always been to allow, as much you’re able, you to let the pain guide you. By doing that, you may get a better or longer lasting solution.

 

Whatever treatment path you choose be patient and share and celebrate your victories as you recover.

Maybe not all of them. She didn’t say so but I think my mom thought it was a little odd when I told her I could finally wipe my own ass for the 1st time in a long time.

Well said.

 

Ya thats what they told me after my CT scans and MRI. The L5/S1 disc has shifted significantly. Scared that the surgery option would be short term however feedback from someone like yourself that has actually went through it is exactly what I need. Thank you for sharing.

Ya I'm hoping that the pain will decrease enough that I can at least be on my feet long enough for physical therapy and other possible treatments if they are productive.

Will definitely share progress. Was able to walk to the bathroom today. Haven't been able to be on my feet for 2 days. Although they have me medicated right now at the hospital so that took some of the pain away but not all. Hoping to be able to go back home tomorrow.

 

Dont do it if you dont have too. It hurt more after
