Re: Pops 72 cheyenne dropmember build
I was in the emregency room late last night with my son he may have broke his leg. He was running down the hall and caught his leg on the door jam to another room. X rays were negative but it is hard to tell with a child because of the size of the growth plates. He still can not stand on it so we are going back today for a second opinion. He is only 3. So I did not work on the truck last night. I will get some more stuff done tonight if my little guy does not need me. I will keep you guys posted. Later Eric

Re: Pops 72 cheyenne dropmember build

Re: Pops 72 cheyenne dropmember build
Thats the truth, we just got back from the Dr and he has a severe sprainof the ankle so atleast he is not in a cast. Although sprains can be worse than breaks. Anyway I will get back on the truck later tonight, the cab is going to marios to have the fire wall shaved and I will order all the interior tomorrow. I am going with all stock cheyenne red dash will be satin red as will the head liner and the small stock headliner will go in on the top, all of the steering column will be red too. Should be different then what you see out there. Any ways thanks guys for checking out my build.

Re: Pops 72 cheyenne dropmember build
Wel got a little done last night. It was very time consuming on the lines because of all the bends and the drilling and tapping of the frame. http://i1005.photobucket.com/albums/...mefront013.jpg

Re: Pops 72 cheyenne dropmember build
My son is super sore and he still can't stand on his right leg. If he is not standing on it by friday he wil be going to an orthopedic surgeon for a 3rd consult. He is just really not doing that great. If you touch his shin he screams. Just does not seem like a sprain to me.

Re: Pops 72 cheyenne dropmember build
So sorry to hear about your son. I broke my leg when I was 4, and I can remember having to deal not moving around and being sore (well, at least from what I can remember). I'll definitely keep y'all in my prayers and pray for a very quick recovery and no permanent damage.

Re: Pops 72 cheyenne dropmember build
I just read through all your builds and all I can say is WOW! Speed and quality tend to be mutually exclusive. And with a dental practice. And with a wife. And with kids. Holy crap man! That's a lot of 5 hr energy, redbull, monster, mt. dew, whatever. Why, I got tired just reading the builds. :lol:
As for your little guy, I pray he is doing better. If it is a sprain, I would recommend following the acronym R.I.C.E. Rest - bed rest with foot elevated above heart, aids in drainback Ice - 20 minutes of ice every 2 hours Compress - compression bandage to minimize swelling and aid in drainback Elevate - elevate foot above heart If his shin is extremely painful, it could be a high ankle sprain. Thankfully for me mine have all been low ankle sprains (basketball, volleyball, tall man sports) and by following the acronym above, I've bounced back within a week and a half. Since he's young he should come back even quicker. Additionally, I personally took 400mg of Ibuprofen every 4 hours with food, as presribed on the back of the bottle. I am unsure about kids under 12 yrs of age though. Check with the dr as I know that Ibuprofen can be hard on your stomach. However, nothing takes down inflammation faster than nSAIDs. Lastly, the more protein you can get in him, the quicker he will heal. Protein will rebuild the damaged cells in his leg. Hope this helps! |

Re: Pops 72 cheyenne dropmember build
Nice work as always Dr. Superfly! I'm digging the lines and hold downs. Super clean.
I know how those sprains go, I have two that are involved in sports. Hope he has a Speedy recovery. |
Re: Pops 72 cheyenne dropmember build
Thanks guys for all the kind words for my son. I have iced elevated it and rapted it. He still can not bare wait. Talk to ortho a couple of days ago and if he can not bare weight by Friday it could be a green stick fracture which can not be sen on and dray. This is were the bone breaks vertical. At any rate he is a youth little guy. He try to stand on it every morning even though it scares the hell out of him because he knows it is going to hurt. Any way I thanknall you guys I know he will be fine.
