MaSnaka John you bending over the car fender and hood is the best rehab for that sore hammie. I do believe that more time is spent under the car than on top.

I dislocated my Left hip playing soft ball and never missed a day.

Getting in and out of the car was a *****.

The worst part was the car was a 4 spd TA. Getting in was a killer. They told me 6-8 weeks on your back, I said vicodens once a day in the morning.

I don't play ball any more and still need 2 hip replacements. The good thing is I can tell what the weather is going to be like about 30 hours before the fun starts.


I do miss softball still after 7 years of without. I am hope that when I turn 70, they will have all the new meds to rebuild joints. Arm has not fallen out of the socket yet, the brakes don't work as well,(due to a 40 pound weight increase) from not enough running around every year. Fighting between the brain and heart is still going on. Brain still wins, walking is better than hip replacement.

Hope you feel better Rick L. Ps got time sent a number to reach you at again.
