Before and After

Starkey had his surgery yesterday. At his competition in Wisconsin he tore his left biceps tendon attempting a 630 pound deadlift. After much research, we learned that this is a VERY rare injury. The Orthopedic Surgeon, anesthesiologist, and many others were excited for his surgery. They had to get his tendon, which snapped and settled under his biceps, then drill a hole in one of the bones in his forearm, pull the tendon through, and walla! 6 long and painful months of physical therapy he'll move his arm again.
