Bad news! Reminds me of the quote:
"When I read about the evils of drinking, it shocked me so much I had to give up reading..."
A haiku to start you off...
Doc says "do not shoot"
Your Phoenix will sit idle
Send it to me, then!
Take it slow and let it heal - the Phoenix will be there waiting for you when you can shoot it.
(Now off sick as well - right lung not working)

Three Months..you gotta be kidding me !!!!! geez I am off to see about my elbow in a few hours so I shall see what I am told 
Steve you have my deepest sympathies I do not know how I would cope with out anything archery .... I can at least coach at the club, I have my Association Web site and the test site I am working on as well, plus my normal haunts.... I have a National executive meeting on the 9th in Brisbane and then in mid march, the National Tittles which if I can't shoot at least I can assist in the running and help in way they require, at least I have that.
I am guessing the you shall be on the computer lots searching around following your pet subjects  I would also suggest that Kathy's geisha outfit will be on hold till you can resume your modeling duties  and I am sure the Phoenix will turn up in the next week to allow you the maximum time to look at with out shooting it.
Now one important piece of advice Bro is that you better do as your told or you might have to wait six months till you can shoot , so make sure you do it right or that sick ward will be on

I promise to listen to all my medical advisers, especially here.
Captain Beaky, a better one is this by Matsuo Basho:
Teeth sensitive to the sand
in salad greens--
I'm getting old.

Gutted for you Steve
If the worst does come though there are ways of shooting with one arm, not that it will come to that I'm sure, rest up for now and reap the rewards later
