    Not to be a b*st*rd, I feel your pain, but think of the people at the Boston Marathon, when the cowardly f*ckers used a bomb filled with nails, BB's, and shards of shrapnel to maximize the damage.

    3 people died. DOZENS lost limbs.

    No matter how bad things get, they could always get worse. You can run a marathon in the future, if you heal properly. It's just like a pitcher in the big leagues, after ten years of throwing, they destroy their ulnar collateral ligament and have to replace it with Tommy John Surgery, it takes them 6 months to start throwing lightly again, and a year to make a recovery.

    There's no reason to think that you can't do the same. Doctors are people too, a lot of the times, they get it wrong. Take it easy, follow the rules of injury management. Rule #1, positive thinking does more good than any other remedy.

    Be strong. Overcome this challenge. Think of what you've overcome before, and how you conquered your adversaries.
