Crash on the greeneway.
Was riding my bike early. I went under the new underpass at the north end of the Greene way. They had not cleared out all of the sandbags yet and I cought my back wheel on one and was thrown over the handlebars. (I was on the Fixie). Anyway, I dislocated my right hand ring finger.
I tired to straighten it out. No luck. I had to call Larry to come help me.. And even had Larry try and pull it out, but it wouldn’t go back in.
Had to go (have Larry take me) to the Emergency room. I HATE medical facilities because so far they are a complete ripoff. But, alas, I was stuck. (hopefully you are reading this in the future where we have legitimate medical care.. that would be nice, and to no thanks of “conservatives” I am sure.)
Here is the before Xray.
And after a shot of lidocane and a bill that would eventually be almost 3000$, Here is the result. It’s sorta fixed.
No real thanks to the PA.. he was lost.. I don’t think he has ever done this before. Than goodness there were no complications because I am sure they would have missed them. I would have Happily paid a couple hundred for the X-ray, and a shot of lidocane, and done the rest myself.
Not Joking.
