Even with your injuries, you still lucked out. Hopefully you heal quickly and well.

I've had shoulder surgeries so when you get closer, I can let you in on all the "fun" you'll have going thru the rehab after having a tendon reattached. You'll be sleeping in a recliner for about 6 weeks ( not supposed to move when sleeping / recovering ). We have a Berkliner brand sofa that reclines with extending footrest. That worked well for me.

Hoping the shoulder surgery won't be so bad--supposed to be just stitching up the torn tendon. Its only partially torn and not pulled off the bone. Arthroscopic is what they are saying now, but still 6 weeks in a sling.

I completely tore mine off the bone. Yours should be a quicker heal but follow EXACTLY what the surgeon and physical therapists tell you to do.

Best of luck

So glad You were not hurt any more than what You were. Hope how soon the pain leaves. Been through the Rotator Cuff surgery. Physical Therapy was rough on an old man. Hope every thing heals nicely and thanks for sharing your story. I know I get in a hurry and take too many chances. After reading your story, I will be more careful. Have a great day.
Bob

Seems like Easter weekend can be a bad day for anyone working on the Cub Cadets. I was installing the sharpened blades on the mower deck when my wrench slipped and the back of thumb hit the blade. Six stitches at the Urgent Care..... That's nothing compared to you, Sawdust. Again, haste makes waste. If I had my thinking cap on, oh well! I hope you mend well.

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.

MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
