Sorry to hear that Mike. As Bob said though, "It's better than the alternative."
I suppose you might also be kind of glad when it's not you getting called out at 2 a.m. in the middle of winter to climb a pole in a muddy field!
But I do understand the frustration of not being able to do what you enjoy the most. I was restricted in my activities after surgery for just a few weeks, and it wasn't easy to just sit around.
