So today was her rotator cuff repair surgery... everything went well and shes passed out recovering now. Once we can take the dressings off I'll post some post-op pictures.

put her back on the bike as soon as possible-even if its around the neighborhood as to shorten the time to get over 'the fear'. hope she gets better with the quickness.
