Always wear your helmet
I spent the better part of yesterday in the Riddle Memorial Hospital Emergency Room. Yesterday morning, while going for my daily bike ride, I managed to crash my bike, scrape up the right side of my body, and hit my head against something. The hit was so hard it broke my bike helmet.
Now, I don't actually remember any of this happening. I'm still trying to figure out how I got home. The last thing I remember, I was on Michigan Ave. in Swarthmore. Then, I kinda remember walking my bike up Martroy Lane behind my house. So, I took this path but I have no memory of it. It really freaks me out, actually.
So, I got home, called my mom, and went to my doctor (who sent me to Riddle ER). I have a concussion (and a horrible headache), and lots of "road rashes". The ER doctor who took care of me was also an avid cyclist. He told me that my injury would have been a lot worse without the helmet.
