I was pretty chill during my car wreck. Even though my leg was bent up near my head and I had to be cut out of the car. Even then I was cracking jokes with the firemen who were trying to keep me calm/awake. Which was no easy task. Which is probably why the memory of it all is a tad bit hazy. Fun stuff, though.
1. Winky caught in zipper......
2. Have my pinky finger and my knuckle reset back into place back doctor.(Loved the adrenaline pumping though...I so wanted to go Dragonball Z on everyone)
3. Waking up from surgery for removal of my wisdom teeth and the drugs were worn off just about and coughing up blood that i swallow during it.
I got hit with cricket ball in the nuts twice in a row, first time it hit me by accident and I fell to my knee's, then as I was getting up someone was like 'I bet I'll miss', threw the ball close range and I got hit again and fell to my knee's and he was all like 'Oh shit I'm sorry!' I think the worste woulda been when I got hit in the nuts with football but it was so cold I didn't feel anything, if I hadn't been numb...I woulda been dead
what i really want is for ppl to describe the sensation of the type of pain they were under at the time..
i know pain is one of those things we cant remember precisely and its just a faded memory but at the time when it does happen while screaming or whatever we could feel and describe the pain in our own mind. so use those memories to help describe what it was like.
i remember when i was having my jaw worked on,, they cut it open and started chipping drilling and scraping it away.. i was under but i wasnt dreaming i wasnt completely unconscious where ppl say they didnt even know who they were that everything was dark and had no self awareness..
i actually could hear the drill the scraping and even the movement of my head as they pressed hard back and fourth causing my head to slide... i could feel the vibrations but i couldnt feel pain just pressure... i could also feel a tear rolling down my eye..
this is what i really wanted to talk about the horror surgery moments..
Well, I'm ex-military. I was 11B (Light Infantryman Airborne) in the U.S. Army. While on patrol in a run down village in Iraq, we began a fire fight with hostile locals. I was lightly grazed by a bullet, but the impact was so strong that it almost rotated my head 180 degrees. My lieutenant began to administer first aid, and put his fingers INSIDE the wound to see if the jugular was severed. Thankfully, it was not.
My only thoughts were of my life. I mean, people always say that you life will flash before your eyes when in a death situation. They're right. I saw my family, my friends, school, and lots of other things.
Then I blacked out from the pain. It was just too much.
I was transported in a Blackhawk back to camp, and I woke up about three days later in the hospital at Rammstein Air Force Base in Germany. I was given a a light morphine drip for the pain. It was excruciating. The doctors told me how lucky I was that I lived.
was it searing pain? sharp, pulsating raw..was it on fire, did it feel wet? etc etc..

worse pain that i have felt was getting coagulant shuffed into my vein/artery by the doctor with a Q tip.. felt my veins light on fire and travel into my body as it rushed from the veins through the rest of my body.. it felt like my blood had bn forced toward opposite direction full stop and reverse...after it happen felt a giant relieve almost at piece..
second time was when i was having my face cleaned the raw meat exposed and the antiseptic and scrubbing b4 they started closing me up..
that felt like a wire brush on wet raw sensitive meat, feeling was how it feels when someone pours peroxide, salt and lemon on an open wound.. also a cold breeze hitting the area whcih kinda sooths it but once its gone it picks up again...i wanted to cry my eyes teared up..
