Surgery was a success! Defective hardware is now scrap metal. A special diamond headed cutting tool and cobalt tool were ordered and used. The plate had to be cut out. Screws had to be burrowed out. Artificial bone was used to fill in the holes. The surgeon and his assistants had to wear protective gear and helmets from flying metal. This was my last and final surgery. I am now at non-weight bearing status again but this time it will only be for a couple of weeks. Staples will come out in 10 days. This Saturday will mark the one year anniversary since injuring myself at the Loopkicks battle. By the end of summer I should be okay.

Tomorrow I am going into surgery to remove the hardware for the 2nd time! Last time there were complications. Wish me Luck!
