Hi, Tom. Welcome to the club.

That’s a story you have there (and thanks for sharing the videos).

I suffered a Type 6 TPF, along with a major knee dislocation and a tibia shaft vertical fracture, on a May 13 motorcycle crash.

I had 2 plates and 14 screws placed into my leg, and I am still NWB, although I hope in 2 weeks that will change when I see my doc next.

I am happy to say that with physical therapy I now have just about all of my ROM back. I think that is important. When talking to your doc make sure you cover this topic.

For me, the hardest part of this whole mess has been the emotional/mental piece. I was very active and losing my hiking, bicycling, swimming, and everything else that has been a struggle. Find things to fill this void as you heal. This web site is good for support and validation.

Good luck to ya!
