My Doctor Took My Beautiful TL Away From Me!!!!....

...I completely tore the ligament attaching my bicep to my elbow and it had to be surgically repaired yesterday. Recovery is going to be six weeks and my doctor was pretty emphatic that I'm not to drive that entire time!!!

ARGHHHHHHHH

I'm really gonna miss my TL....I never realized how much I loved this car!!!!

Good luck with a speedy recovery. Sorry to hear.

Do you want to tell us how that happened, or are we better off not knowing?

My neice adopted a baby and my wife and I were buying her a stroller. As I was lifting the big-assed box into the car I felt something literally rip in my left bicep and I knew I had done something bad. A few x-rays and MRI's later I realized I had completely torn the bicep ligament away from the bone. Off to the Hospital for Special Surgery for me (amazing place BTW if you ever need this kind of work done!).

Now all I can do is look longingly at my beautiful TL.

Damn sorry to hear that, I had a gall bladder removed in September and the 1 week of no driving was hell! Can't imagine 6 weeks. Get well quick.

I clicked on this thread thinking that your doctor literally took your TL & was driving it somehow as a form of payment LMAO.

LOL! Now a days doctors would take away a FLEET of TLs away given the high cost of healthcare.
