See, the ankle they want to operate on does hurt, ever, yet the one that does ache all the time doesn't "need" surgery.. Yes, my left ankle is always numb, but it doesn't hurt. Right ankle hurts, Doc don't care.
Interesting you say that about pain making you feel alive
I've been telling my son "pain reminds us that we're alive" whenever he has a good biff. A very old and dear friend gave me that lesson after I broke my back and was strapped to a hospital bed.
That's like the reason JB brought in a guy like Gagner. To give the kids someone to beat out of a spot, internal competition and maybe a bit of vet leadership (but I'm totally not buying that line about Gagner).
Yeah sure, it was thought he'd be a big help to our miserable powerplay, but wasn't at all.
I want Gaudette to force JB's hand in a waive or trade on a guy like Gagner. JB wants his hand forced. I doubt he actually likes Gagner out there.
Hope they can cure arthritis for you (and me) chon.
My doctor is trying to force an ankle surgery on me "before it goes arthritic".
I was cooperative about the knee surgeries because, well, they were both &^@#ed. Locked up, ached, gave out, popped loudly
both surgeries went well and they're like 250% better than pre surgery. But what freaks me about the ankle job is it's a year of rehab. A whole freaking year... &^@# that
