Broke mine a few years ago into 3 pieces. It healed pretty well with just a sling, since I believe it was shown that the firgure 8 sling provided no additional therapeutic benefit to healing and outcome.
I was riding again after 8 weeks, fell on it at a fairly slow pace and caused the whole should to inflame again and become quite painful --> lesson, give a large window of opportunity to heal properly!
Regained strength at the gym using bench press and other shoulder and chest lifts with very minimal weight ~ 5-10% of what I would normally use. I steadily increased the weight until I was back to where I was prior to the break, at least 4 months.
Take your time!
