Recovery
Hey guys,
It's really sad that I had to go and get hurt before I could find the time to sit and make a post but anyway. I got hurt at work today kinda bad, if you want to read the story it's behind the cut, otherwise, you can keep going and just know that I am still alive (yeah LOL) and the injury is not permanent or to terrible.
So I went to work at my usual time and was just settling into another long day, about an hour and a half into the day 3:30am i was lifting something the wrong way, which I did not know until I went to stand up and....RRRIIIPPPP.... goes the lower left muscle in my back, down I go onto the icy cold ground. Now I am a pretty strong guy and can put up with ALOT of pain, but this hurt so bad I was actually screamin in agony. It took me about 25-30 minutes to crawl over to my truck and get in to get my phone to call for help. The first supervisor shows up and says he is not about to try and get me out of the truck. At this point I am gripping the steering wheel so hard I can't let go. He calls an ambulance to have the paramedics get me out.
About 10 minutes later the ambulance shows up, then seconds later my boss shows up, I'm told later that my boss's knees almost gave out as he listened to me scream getting out of the truck, you see the paramedics could do nothing to get me out of the truck, I just had to dig deep and step out myself. Let me tell ya that took an incredible amount of will power. Thankfully once I got onto the stretcher the nice nice men put me in the ambulance and SHOT ME FULL or morphine. That shit was great, they kept me full of morphine for the next 6 hours. Once I was released from the hospital they sent me hone with some Percocet, which I took when I walked in the door and then politley passed out. I just woke up and feel one helluvalot better. But I am off for the next 3 days.
Not sure what i'm gonna do for 3 days, but, I guess I needed the rest anyway. So that's my story.
Thank you in advance for your well wishing
