M00N Posted December 13, 2006 Report Share Posted December 13, 2006 Re: Strangest injury?? Hmm I have had a lot of injuries growing up. Lets see... 1. I was really young I think 5 or 6 and I was jumpig on the bed, and not listening to mom, I drug the wooden chair onto the bed with me to bounce around and make it bounce with me on the bed. Then I fell and smacked the back of my head against the pointy leg of the chair and cut a hole in the back my head. I didn't know at first I did cut my head then I stuck my finger in the hole in the back my head and turned to my mom and said look a booboo and mom about passed out. I got a bunch of stitches at the doctors and while he was stitching my head up he had part the string dangling infront my face so I kept yanking on it and he kept telling me to stop it. lol 2. I near severed both my ankles when a dog tied to one those steel wire cables ran past me chasing a squirrel and the wire basically did a rope burn effect to my ankles cutting them right to the bone. Again I was young and poked my fingers in the wound and made my mom want to pass out again. Took me months to heal from those wounds. I still have trouble with circulation in my feet and no feeling on the tops of my feet near the ankles. 3. I was trying to offroad with a bike that wasn't meant to go off road and fell. My thigh got impaled on the chainring. I on instinct yanked it back out of my leg and started bleeding all over the place. Didn't get stitches but had my thigh wrapped for a good whole week and took about a month to fully heal the wounds. 4. Got startled and fell off a top bunk in a camper. My arm got wedged in the rail of the bunk and my body kept going to the floor. Dislocated my arm. I then popped it back in by myself and had to go to the hospital. Took me 2 weeks to get to the point where I could use that hand again to write. I had to write left handed during that time. Then it took me nearly 5 years to get strength back in that arm again in order to be able to pull a 35# bow. Still working on this arm in order to get pulling 40# to go deer hunting this coming season. 5. In high school teacher sat me next to this girl that was part of one of the gangs. She kept staring at me and calling me not so nice names. I ignored her and payed her no attention trying to get her to just turn back around and leave me alone. She turned around and stabbed her pencil through my hand then smiled at me and reached for her pen next. I'm not a person who was ever the fighting kind, but when injured seriously like that I do react of course to protect myself. Out of defense I grabbed my other hand around her neck and picked her up and pinned her to the chaulk board until the teacher could get her under control and take away her weapons (she also had a pen she wanted to stab me with). She got suspended from school and I got apologized to for the teacher not being present in the classroom like he should of been. Then I got sent home to go get a tetnus shot and my wound cleaned out at the hospital. Was a tough wound to heal up in a bad spot, kept bumping it open on things. I had more minor injuries I just don't honestly remember them. These were the 5 that stuck out most in my head. I was a very accident prone little girl. I was a rough tough tomboy that always hung out with all the guys. Still am today, but just got a bit more common sense. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turkeygirl Posted December 13, 2006 Report Share Posted December 13, 2006 Re: Strangest injury?? Wow Moon..... I forgot to menton a few years back our one dog got off his chain and went to the neighbor's house (the neighbors who are jerks). Anyway went to get him and our other neighbor up the road who is out vet, his dog followed me. Well the bad neighbor's dogs (3) ran out and started attacking her. I was screaming and yelling bloody murder at them and throwing stones. The one dog I didn't see leave and he came up behind me and bit me in the upper right side of my butt! Ran home in tears with a nice little puncture in my butt...nothing too serious praise the Lord. I still cringe today if a dog barks at starts even walking towards me.

JUST KIDDING...............but you'd better explain this one. LOL [/ QUOTE ] Oooooook Condensed version. When I was about 14 years old my brother decided to play a practical joke on me and propped up a pencil in a chair. He thought I saw him put it there but I didn't and I sat on it.

Washi Posted December 13, 2006 Report Share Posted December 13, 2006 Re: Strangest injury?? When I was about four or five my little brother hit me on top of my head with a hammer. I bled a lot. When I was in high school me and a friend were in art class together. For some reason I picked up a canvas stretcher (looks like a pair of pliers with big jaws). I smiled at her and opened and shut them clicking the jaws together. All of a sudden she kicks my hand and the stretchers fly up and hit me in the eye. I went to look in the mirror and had a nice cut just at the bottom edge of my eyebrow. Took like twelve stitches if I remember right.
