I have to ask this; does it feel funny walking? How's your balance. Man, I sure don't wish that upon anybody.

 

dude i hope you heal fast !!

geex my foot feels funny after seein that ... ouch ..

i remember when i used to cut grass alot i was pulling the mower up a hill - BAD MOVE i slipped on the fresh cut grass and almost went under the mower... gained a new respect for the ting - thinfully i was not hurt...

TOY - i wish you a speedy recovery !!

 

Thanks for the kind words people. Things are going pretty well so far. My injury insurence finally paidme out . They paid out $220 and called it a minor fracture. I am like WTH?

UI is paying less than half normal wages. Kinda hard to pay a mortgage on $150 a week. Man I wish I was back to work.

I have so many projects on the go as of late.

get the race car going, put lift in Toyota, Fix heater core in Tempo, Finish kitchen reno`s, finish bathroom reno`s, MOW THE GRASS, I dont think it will ever stop?

Terrible summer for comps around here. Just no time to go or don`t hear about them. I want to get to work on my new install, but I need the amp to come in. I am still waiting for it.

I have to sit around the house and wait for the home care nurse to come change the dressings, man she taks forever.

You know the best thing about all this?
I dont neccesarily have to wave my finger at people anymore, if I step in dog doo , it doesnt squish in between my toes and I have a sudden urge to hit half off sales.

 

thats messed.. i say you go in and talk to your broker, take off your shoes, socks and ask if it still looks minor..

 

A good friend of mine just settled for $400,000. He had his foot ran over by a lawn mover when he was really young. If I were you I wouldn't settle until I had to. Hire a lawyer and get every penny you can. My company insurance pays 100,000 per toe. $250 is like a sick joke.

 

Stupid question, but did it hurt? I ask because I had a buddy that did something similar with his hand and a bandsaw and said he didn't feel a thing. I called bull****

 

It didnt hurt untill recently.

Once I fell I pushed the mower off, got up and then noticed my foot. No top to my shoe and 4 white things stickin out. Not very much blood at all. I threw the mower and walked into the house, grabbed my keys and drove my truck to the hospital.

Walked to the doors and a male cop opened the doors and asked if that hurt, I said nope. The lady cop was trying real hard to hold her donuts down.

I sat there for 6 hours with a saline covered towel on my foot. They wheeled me off for Xrays.Then sat another 3 hours and off to surgery. Recovered after an hour, was given 2 292 pain killers and sent home.

That was it.

The real pain was when the wife or the dog rolled over on it at bedtime.
