I get it. Interfaced with a car at 21mph one morning on the way to work. Coller bone OK but Humorous broken, Shoulder blade fracture as well as a rib, significant trauma to the soft tissue on the forearm, road rash and permanent damage to my left eye. Plate with 7 screws on the Humorous and in line for a cataract procedure on the left eye as a result of another procedure to fix the Macula.
Anyway, I wish you well. I had a broken collar bone, but it was in kindergarten and nit bike related.
