Just this week my brother was at work and just walking up a flight of stairs when he heard a POP in his knee that was as loud as firecracker.
Dropped him.All done. |

Jeez forgot to mention in '99 I literally shattered both knee caps in another car accident but at that point I was used to the idea of pain that
it didn't seem as bad as it was.
Another honorable mention would be when I was 11 we took a family vacay and I closed the locked door right across the palm of my left hand.Every animal at Benson's Wild Animal Farm heard me that day!
Those meningitis induced headaches weren't much fun either.

Spence's Pain
would be seeing someone wear white before Memmorial Day or after Labor Day. What a lament.
I have been very lucky compared to you guys. Hitting the bridge of my nose with a 28 oz. framing hammer taking batter boards off of an interior 2nd floor wall hurt like a mother you know what. Going to my knees next to an unprotected second floor stairwell open all the way to the cellar floor as a result scared the beejesus out of me.

Skatboarding I must been 15-16. I skated for a shop up on the east side (thayer) we're shooting some footage of us doing tricks for a shop video. I'm jumping from one parking level to one below it doing a 360 kickflip. Ran through it once no problem. Didnt get it on tape. I run through it again, half way through it, Im in the air board is flipping hit the bushes in between parking levels ( I was jumping from the top to the lower level) so the board hit bush and it stops, it pokes straight up and I take it on the nuts. There were parking meters in the bushes that had the meters chopped off. The board hit the meter, pointed straight up whacked me good, and I slid down the rest of the parking meter pole cartoon style... You want to talk about pain

There is pain then there is THAT.
Don't have to hit them; just graze them...
How long before you could breathe again? |

Beyond comprehension.
I can't even imagine that.
"Sorry for your loss" just don't cut it.
That just kind of took the wind out of the whole thread for me. |

Your right SOK
All the injuries and pain become distant memories, but not the one about Mom. |
