1. Nerve transplants from calf to left shoulder to rebuild torn brachial plexus.

2. Nerve transplants from shoulder blade area (left) and left side of rib cage as well as neural decompression from #1 to prepare for #3.

#3. Transplant of left grisilis muscle (inside of thigh) to my left forearm to regain some hand use.

Total of ~16-17 hours under anesthesia

All (motor)cycling related. My last ride ended rather poorly.

I "win" most scar competitions. (For those of you who have seen "Jaws.")

edit: I guess I could add wisdom teeth removal when I was 18. Did require full anesthesia.
