    Anybody else having pre-Friday 13th bad luck?

    Two weeks ago I got a sever case of the flu.

    Last week I had to have surgery to remove growth on my neck. (so far no news and no news in this case is usually good news)

    Night before last. I broke my leg. My femur! That's right. My freakin' femur. The biggest strongest bone in your body. I dragged myself into the house and didn't go to the hospital til yesterday. the doc told me that he didn't know how I dealt with the pain for waiting so long to come to the ER. The problem is, I didn't deal with the pain. I felt like passing out or throwing up for the entire time!!

    If I have to drag myself anywhere, I'm going to the hospital.

    Believe it or not, I did it doing something I've done a million times throughout my entire life. I was in the bed of my 4X4 and tossing a couple things out. Instead of climbing down the back using the bumper, I just hopped on over the side. Somehow I came down just right that it shattered my femur at the knee joint. My knee is swollen to about 3 times or more of it's normal size and I can't bend it a millimeter without feeling like I'm going to pass out it hurts so bad.

    Howdy, one thing I've learned is that you never ask that question, Because yes, yes it can.

    The only reason I didn't go to the hospital right away is because it just happened and I figured it was just severely sprained (I mean, who shatters there bone by jumping out the back of a 4X4?) and then went to bed to rest it off. It wasn't until i woke up and couldn't move around without dragging myself around with a 2x4 that i realized just how bad it was. Maybe i just have a higher pain threshold then you? Everyone is different you know. So, I spent the whole day in the hospital because of it and i have to go back tomorrow for the orthopedics to asses whether I'll need surgery. Pretty sure i have it covered when it's time to go to the hospital.
