Hey guys, I can not stay long, my wife brought over the extra laptop we have for travel. I am laid up in bed as I had a fall in the bathtub about a month or so ago and hit my head and neck on the tub wall. The plate and pins ripped out of my cervical and basically broke my neck where the plates where. I went into emergency surgery, and I am laid up for about 4-5 months without able to do anything.
I was sooo scared as I went numb and could not hardly move when it happened. My wife was at the store when it happened and I laid there unconscious until I woke up in the emergency room. Apparently my wife came home and found me, and called 911. As you all know I had surgery on my cervical in 2 areas and had the vertebrae fused together at the C3-C4 and the C6-C7. After the fall, the vertebrae where crushed And the screws and plates ripped out and they had to go in and insert bone matter in all the areas and then apply more plates and screws to repair. Not to mention I lost two back teeth from the impact of the fall. Except this time I had to remain stationary for 6 weeks and my wife has been tending to me hand and feet for all this time. Luckily my time away from work has been covered along with the wifes.
I am in so much distress that it is hard just to move left or right in bed. I have to have gel walls placed on both sides of me so that it prohibits me from any movement at all. Just in the last week and a half, I have had the walls removed off the bed and I am at a 45 degree upright position and able to watch TV. My wife bitches at me for bitching at the situation.
Bare with me as it may be a while before I get back to you on here. I will try and check in on you all from time to time.
Miss you all and the chats. Talk soon,
