I'm heading into week 10 of being non-weight bearing and mostly bedbound because of a broken leg.  Got hit by a truck while riding my bike in the middle of May.

I've managed to stay in good spirits, but I'm definitely getting antsy to be able to start up physical therapy and relearn to walk.

Before the accident, I'd declared this was going to be my Summer of Hermit Adventures.  Buying the bike was part of it - sweet cruiser-style bike with an electric pedal-assist motor on it.

But it turns out I'm still having a Summer of Hermit Adventures.

It just happens to have included discovering /Farcaster and all the wondrous possibilities on web3.

Cyclist here. Sorry to hear about that. What were the circumstances surrounding the truck hitting you?

Yeah.  The paramedics who showed up told me they were expecting it to be a LOT worse than it was.  No head injuries, had a mild scrape on my elbow where it hit the ground.  Followed by a 12-day hospital stay where I had to have an external fixator installed - pins in femur and tibia with bars between to stabilize the leg long enough for the bone to heal, then a week later, that got removed and they put in plates and screws.  The top of my tibia that makes up part of the knee joint is basically now encased in a titanium cage.

Yikes! You're quite lucky, I lost an old timer biker friend in a similar accident. A tall, semi FedEx truck was turning right at an intersection and didn't see buddy on his recumbent bicycle next to him in a biker lane and that was that.

Truck driver stopped at a stop sign, I had the right-of-way and went, and then the driver wasn't paying enough attention and went while I was right in front of him.  He wasn't going very fast, but it was enough to knock me over and cause a shattered tibial plateau that took two surgeries to fix.  Thankfully, no other injuries, and the bike made it through unscathed, so I will be able to ride again!
