From Ultimate Classic Rock--Jeff Giles Rolling Stone reports that five hours of surgery were required to mend Bono’s injuries, sustained in what doctors are calling a “high energy bike accident” that occurred when the singer swerved to avoid hitting another cyclist in New York’s Central Park on Nov. 16. Bono’s list of ailments included a facial fracture involving the orbit of his eye, three separate fractures of his left shoulder blade and a fracture of his left humerus bone in his upper arm. The fracture shattered the bone “in six different places … tearing through his skin.” Three metal plates and 18 screws later, Bono’s back on the mend, but the report cautions that he’ll need to undergo “intensive and progressive therapy” before he’s completely back in shape. Our best wishes go out to Bono for a quick recovery.
