GWSmith Posted March 10, 2005 Report Share Posted March 10, 2005 Before....and how i would like to remember her as... After and the way she is now....... This used to be "Baby"...I dont think the photo's do her injuries justice...... In order I worried about three things while my shoulder was laying in snow and slushy water: 1. Did I mess my pants.(no) 2. Is my wife going to be mad at me. (i figured that I could not do anything about that now if she was...and she was not) 3. I hope i can still shoot a bow. (Basically because my left arm was going numb and felt really bad. The doctor at the hospital said that laying in the snow and ice...it probably kept the swelling down and kept it from hurting as bad) I feel better this evening and see more range of motion in my shoulder and arm. The pain in my hips is gone and the pain in my stomach is gone. I'll tell you all one thing....when I finally came to rest: The roses that i was taking home to my wife landed on my face.....I figured that I had other problems than getting them home to her so I moved them.... Right in front of my face 8 inches away layed the cell phone that previously was attached to my waist....my brother had just bought me and sent to my house recently out of the blue sky....I kinda took that as a sign to call for help ...I was being taken care of and I was relatively peaceful after that....I knew everything was going to be OK.
