hmmm broken pelvis.
Well. I have a broken pelvis in 6 places. 4 in front and 2 in the back. At least that is what they tell me but I've never seen it and all I know is that it has been the worst pain I have ever felt. After the accident was probably the worst because I was facing the unknown of what the hell was I going to do about school and you know walking again. It's better now that I'm on the rehabilitation floor but I don't want to be here that long. I don't ever want to have to be in a hospital longer than a couple hours after this experience. I really don't. I hate that I have to relearn everything that came so naturally before like putting on socks and taking a shower standing up. I have to trouble shoot things like when I drop the soap or anything really because I can't bend down like I used to. I hate it. hate it hate it hate it. Hate being here. I hate being 21 away from my boyfriend, school, friends, family and doing normal things. I progress a little everyday but it is still hard to know that hopefully in a month I'll be able to walk without a cane or walker. Hopefully. My summer will be filled with physical therapy instead of other crap I wish I were doing. And if I don't finish school by the end of the semester I'll be doing school work too. I guess what I really hate is that a stupid bullshit decision that you make everyday without thinking about put me here. I really hate right now that I won't have a normal life for the upcoming months.
But then I put things into perspective when I see the man on my floor who has one leg. I'm all here, just broken. My spine is fine, my neck is fine, and technically I'm fine, just with a broken pelvis. I could be dead and that is the truth and I'm glad I'm not. So I just have to work hard everyday getting back to normal. And let me tell you this friends, if you're going to break any bone in your body, DO NOT break the pelvis. I "hear" it is the most painful break you can have...
Be safe, drive safe, and don't make me worry about you. I love you all.
