I wholeheartedly agree after that p o s 's further comments... Craig ......
No worries. Unfortunately, the admins didn't think it warranted a ban. Stay focused on your recovery and ignore negative c***s like him.

While there are always 3 sides to every story, hopefully certain people can realize that this discussion is no place for police/politics/agendas.
Kinda thought Craig's responses would've squashed it, but apparently not, as it popped up again.
@mobileparts
Craig - I don't know you, but I know your name from here due to the parts-sales gig you have. As you are one of our brethren here - prayers for a good recovery!
IMO - if you are planning a lawsuit, consider to remove your explanation of the event from FCBO and anywhere else you've put it. Defense attorneys might cherrypick from it to use in their case. But if you already have an attorney, show them your posts and get their advice first. While nothing ever 100% disappears from the internet, if they don't know something existed, they won't know to look for it.

For all those MEN wishing me well, sending prayers, etc., etc. ---- here is an update...
It is mind boggling to think about how --- YOU --- don't have to THINK about standing up.... You put on your socks and sneakers / shoes --- and stand up ... It is that easy....
No thought or thought process......
Until something like this happens,...
And, while I could still lift a 50 - 70 pound milk crate from my van to my tables at a show, before this happened, I must confess, I haven't been working out these last 40 years , such that my arms and legs are not strong enough to lift up my body by themselves.....
And for years, I used to say that I am 6 - 3 , 280.... Thankfully, by eating somewhat correctly these last couple of years, I am at 225 lbs, --- many have commented that I have lost weight, and I have had to change belt buckle position twice !!! And, thank goodness, now, because it will be easier to lift 225 pounds , as opposed to 280 ish .....
I have O.T. (Occupational Therapy) and P.T. (Physical Therapy) every day....
Arm and Hand Exercises, Leg Execrcises, strengthening every part of my body, learning to stand up again, transferring from the bed to the walker and to the wheelchair --- it is an excruciating long and hard process to return to " NORMAL "....
However, I am staying at it... Not only every day, but also in bed, after they are gone for the day , to speed up the process.... I am trying to gain 1 1/4 days of progress every day....
I am not going to be Hulk Hogan overnight.... I am not going to be a 23 year old ever again....
But, I am going to be more toned and "buff" than I have been in over 40 years --- as I must confess, I thought that my ability to lift 60 and 70 pound milk crates was "enough"..... But .... Not presently .....
I have to get rolling now --- but I wanted to update everyone who has monitored my progress --- and thank everyone who has sent along well wishes and more...once more, presently....
I can't wait to tell everyone when I am up and walking again, and I promise you, when that is possible --- I am
Outta here !!!!
With Love and MOPARS, Yours, Craig.....
P.S. I will keep you all abreast of the financial side of what is going on, but, so far, It is still a case in progress....
P.P.S. If anyone Has any questions or comments, feel free to ask me anything... I mean anything.... I will answer any thoughts or queries you may have.... Thank GOD that all my mental faculties are still razor sharp !!! Whew !!!

Right on, Craig! Keep at it sir. We're all pulling for you here. I found this video that I thought might give you some pointers and inspiration on your strength training.

Glad you are doing better, you never realize things about your health until you lose it.
On a side note, the stitches came out of my fingers, I can make a fist with 3 of the 4 fingers. Therapy for me is progressing. Keep up the rehab.

Craig,
Matt was doing a great job keeping us up to date with your situation, but it is so much better to hear it from you. I'll be praying for you.

When a guy named 'live4theking' says prayer, you know it's not just a casual reference!
Craig -
You are likely 'struggling' because you are now needing core muscle that the milk-crate activity doesn't use as much.
I'm like you - I don't exercise per se, but I am able to physically lift/do almost anything I need single-handedly - but sometimes an afternoon of wielding a 10-lb leafblower gives a next-day reminder of the difference.
Hang in there (and prayers, too)!
