I was installing a shade on our front porch Sunday afternoon. When I reached over to drill the last hole, the step stool threw me shattering the tibia and fibula at the knee.

The doctor reviewed the X-rays and installed the cage to stabilize the pieces. This afternoon I was transferred to a rehab facility. I return to Piedmont Tuesday morning for reconstructive surgery.

Thanks for all the prayers and good wishes.

BTW the scar in the photos was from five surgeries in the early 1980s to repair my femur that was shattered in a car wreck.
