Well I'm getting back on my feet a little bit at a time. I have neglecting my plants since Friday last week.
Last Friday I went out to the farmer's house to start getting the garden around for the outside grow there was 3 or 4 of us. We were to cut down a few tree branches that were about 25 feet up and about 30ft long.. There was like 3 or 4 of them.
So I'm out raking in the garden and I noticed that one guy had went up the ladder to do about 20 feet up. The latter was wobbling pretty good. so I went over to hold the ladder. I'm out of the falls zone. so I thought. He's cutting away at the last branch with a electric chainsaw on a pole. The another guy's out at the end of the tree branch on the ground on a hill. He says it's starting to come down. so I yell up to the guy on a ladder tell him to slow down on your cut. so it drifts down slowly.
So I looked down at my feet to see where they were at so I could move them quickly. cuz I have a big size 14 ft feeet and I want to make sure that I'm able to move my foot quickly and not trip.
I know more than glanced at my feet and the next thing I know I'm laying on the ground looking at leaves and blood. Trying to figure out what was in front of my vision. As I didn't even feel the branch hit me. Not at all.
I couldn't feel my hands and my arms. The guy that was out on the end of the tree branch he came running over and rolled me over put a sweatshirt on my head told me not to move.
It Seemed like it took forever to get to the hospital. the ambulance came and drugged me off with my head split wide open.
I get to the hospital they check me in I got a neck stabilizer on head stabilizer whatever. Still on a gurney and they shoved me in the hallway and put me alongside the wall. Near the reception area of the emergency desk and the beginning of a long hallway. Where there was a lot of traffic all the time. There I laid for 5 hours. With the occasional person stopping by asked me if I needed anything or if I had to go to the bathroom. At which point anytime I ask for anything I didn't get nothing and going to the bathroom? well the nurse made me wait for almost 2 hours to do that.
So the accident happened around 1 in the afternoon it's now 7 pm. And they're just getting to me. It just seems like a slow train wreck. They roll me down to the CT scan. They scanned me. Luckily my neck wasn't broken. I was severely relieved over that.
Then they rolled me back to my spot in the hallway... Where I did wait for another hour and a half. When they finally decided to sew my head up. It took five bottles a saline solution to wash my cut out and get the monster size blood clot that was in there out. it was stupid the clot shouldn't have never been there. If they would've took care of me when they should have. Apparently it was pretty bad because it took surgeon people to sew my head up. As the one Dr. wasn't skilled enough. So they used me for a training doll.
So after patchy hair cutt on my head. Worst haircut I've ever had
. I finally check out its 11 at night going on 11:30.
I am very glad to be alive. The experience in the hospital was worth staying alive.
It seems that the experience of the hospital was as traumatic as the branch hitting me in the head. Luckily I live in a city where I have a choice of a couple big hospitals. Next time I'm going to choose the other one.
I hope there's not a next time.. but just saying... LOL... oh boy...
