I decided to create this blog to share my experience of recovering from a serious gliding accident and, in particular, to chart my relationship with the Ilizarov Fixation Device which now envelops my lower left leg

Latest Leg Photos
These photos were taken 5-6 days after the breaking and removal of the foot ring and the leg is still pretty swollen and brusied. The incision used to break the leg is really tiny but the one used to find the leaking artery is rather larger. It's nice to see the foot again without the foot ring but it needs a good wash. Just waiting for the pin sites to heal up before it gets a good lathering.
My name is Martin Harbour and I live in Stockport (UK).
I am 52 years old and, whilst being a bit overweight, have generally kept myself active in the local Peak District National Park.
My main hobby for several years has been gliding and I am a member of the Derbyshire & Lancashire Gliding Club at Camphill. I hold an Assistant Category Instructors rating and enjoy teaching the next generation of pilots.
That, as they say, is the start of this story..........
