My driveway is step and I go down it fast, at 25 mph, I'm guessing because I make a left turn to immediately go up a hill. The asphalt was damp and my ElliptiGO slid right out from under me. I landed on my left shoulder and side. I slid a long way and then just laid there. My neighbor across the street drove up after 10 minutes, drove me up to my house and rolled my ElliptiGO back up.

What you broke your funny bone? Oh, no, you broke your humerus bone (there is no 'o'). It is certainly not funny. Hopefully the surgery all goes well. And no pictures of the actual surgery, please.

Wow...what a bummer. So sorry this happened to you, but glad your neighbor and Kyle came to the rescue! Hope the healing goes quickly.

Perhaps, Bill was thinking of the femur / thighbone area, rather than the humerus / shoulder area.

Are they keeping you in the hospital or did they send you home? Sounds like a big mess.
