Went to work Friday morning. Slipped on the ice and slammed the back of my head on the parking lot. Went to the hospital to see if I had a concussion. They took 10 X rays. Was in a neck brace for 4 hours. My neck and shoulders still hurt pretty bad. My head seem’s ok. I see the doc tomorrow and will see what he has to say. Kim.
 
Holy **** Kim. That is a vicious injury. I know a man whose life changed forever due to the same event. Be careful. I hope you have the right people looking after you.
 
Shoulda bought a lottery ticket while your luck held.....
Hoping for a full recovery.
 
hope you recover quickly, reading that hurt me because I know what a sweetie you are and you didn't need that.

Keep us posted on your progress to feeling better.
 
Wow....hope you're ok Kim! There's been quite a few slips and falls here lately. My friend fell off a step ladder in his machine shop and hit his big lathe on the way down. Broke 3 ribs and a shoulder bone! Hope you get well soon.
 
Sorry to learn of this. Be SURE to get a thorough checkout and followup. Don't need a slow bleed to cause an unforeseen issue.
 
Sorry to read Kim, get checked out thoroughly! I slipped and went arse send up like you, last year on a set of flagstone steps. No head crack thankfully, just a cut on arm and embarrassment lol.
Be well.
 
I sure do not miss slipping on the Ohio ice.

I'm getting painfully aware of the increase in healing time as I get older.

Ladders and men over 50 not a good combination
 
Any updates?
I just ran across this thread today.
I'm sorry to hear about your injury, Kim.
Hope you have a speedy and full recovery...
 
Having been through a couple falls on ice and one really bad one from an extension ladder, I can truly relate. Hope you are doing well and listen to the doctors.
 
Dan man. I missed this somehow. Hope you recover quickly.
 
man , sorry to hear about your fall and injury , well that's one way to get to go home sick with the bosses wishing to get better . hope you get to feeling better soon . pm
 
I worked for 7 weeks with my right leg in a brace and on crutches :lol: Told my boss he had to guarantee me 40 hrs/week to beat the SDI $ :lol: Good thing I wasn't takin' the pain killers prescribed for me, could have led to a lot of messed up loads of asphalt :rofl:
