If you go to your User Control Panel and fill out Location in your Profile it will be visible for everyone on the right under your name/picture.

Injury Description, Date, extent, surgical intervention etc: RTBPI - injured during a right cervical rib resection on 12/3/2008 for thoracic outlet syndrome. The doctor completely transected the lateral cord at C5-C6 Erb's pointe and the suprascapular nerve. Had a nerve repair done on 12/12/2008 to reattach the nerves. Did two years of OT. I have some issues with overuse issues with my left shoulder and also have come to find that my joints are hypermobile so I have instability in the joints which causes a lot of problems such as pressure and pain.

I'm from Alabama, obviously shown over to the right of my post. I know Marieke said it, but I find it ironic that people havent just added that little tidbit to their profile so that it shows each and every time they post. I just added the little avatar photo, my city, and a signature cause thats what I wanted to be shown every time. Marieke, thanks for your suggestion of where to turn a photo into an avatar.

Incidentally, I've been through Mansfield often to the racetrack there Candy. I've also been to one in Wisconsin in the Sheboygan / Elkart Lake area.
Robert - LTBPI/34/AL - Yamaha meets Ford Expedition....not good.
