cod4 server Update on Thundercat

[vyder]

Hey guys, I thought that I would update you all on what I heard from TC's wife via xfire. A few hours ago TC came on the server and we were playing some maps. He was complaining about his arm because he had just been to the range. Eventually, he said that he couldn't feel his arm and that's when we said he should go to the hospital immediately. After a few mins he informed us that he was going to the hospital and that his son or daughter would be taking over. I must say that TC and his wife are doing a great job of raising their daughter as far as I can tell because she is more mature than quite a few players we see.

 

His wife informed me that he is undergoing surgery at the moment because he has a torn rotator cup and there is nerve damage. She hopes that he will be out of surgery in about an hour and that this won't set him back. The clan has had a positive impact on him and I hope that we can see him here again soon. I just wanted to put this message out there to show TC that we are rooting for him and a speedy recovery. Just post your well wishes and hopefully our collective digital well-wishes can impact his real life recovery!

 

Get well TC and I hope to see you back on the server ASAP!

[Thundercats]

good morning all!!!! Thanks of the support. A special thanks to Vyder speaking to the wife last night and making this post. this is truly a F|Amily. Okay turns out I had a Type II Labral tear and should not require rotator cuff surgery. Dr thought it would be best to go in right way and take care of it since he thought there might be some nerve issues. So I am home and I am enjoying my drugs. I will try in get in game when i can use my right arm again. Couple of the kiddies will get a chance to play. They know the rules and I will be around watching them to make sure there are no issues 

 

Type II Labral Tears:

A type II labral tear is when the labrum actually detaches from the bone. In this case, an arthroscopy is usually recommended to repair the labrum. During arthroscopy, anchors are placed into the bone, and stitches attached to the anchors are passed through the labrum. When these stitches are tied, the labrum is pulled back down against the bone so it can heal in the proper location.

After a labral repair, the labrum must be able to heal in place. While it is important to move the shoulder to prevent scar tissue, or a frozen shoulder, from developing, there should only be passive motion of the shoulder. Passive motion is when a physical therapist moves the shoulder for the patient – the patient should not make any active effort to move the shoulder by himself. Usually, these passive motion only restrictions apply for four weeks.

Arthroscopy:

Shoulder arthroscopy is generally an outpatient procedure in which the patient goes home the day of surgery. Small incisions (approximately 1cm in length) are made in the shoulder, through which a fiber optic camera and other instruments are inserted to perform the surgery. The shoulder is visually examined, including the cartilage, tendons and bursa of the shoulder. Any necessary procedures, such as a labral repair, are then performed as described above.
