I am not dead

 I am in ICU and intubated since last Friday. No idea if I can go back to work. Third party hit me in a car accident. I have a broken wrist, several leg and rib fractures. The usual cuts and lacerations.

Never saw it coming. 

Who knows when I can continue posting on a regular basis  

Will update when I can

  1. Really sorry about your terrible accident. Certainly hope the healing is better than expected. Always lurk around here wondering why everything in Canada is abandoned. Rest well and God bless.

  2. I'm just a random sometimes stopper-inner but of course I had to respond when I saw this post! I'm so sorry this happened, what a surprise. Granted, you may be able to post more than you can do much of anything else over these next few days and weeks.... Godspeed on your healing.

  3. That sucks!

    I had something similar happen in April, 2022. I have lots of family who helped me get back home and recover.

    I will be praying for you, buddy. Broken ribs HURT and I am still working to recover the strength in my left leg.

  4. I am very sorry to read of your accident. I enjoy your posts even though I am from the southern US and have not been to Alberta or Saskatchewan in many years. Driving is becoming like Russian roulette. Get well soon.

  19. That’s all just small stuff BW. Fella like you can probly walk that off! You’re probably just milking it to escape chores and house work! 😉👍

    How’s your back and neck? And the joints? That is where the seriously bad stuff can happen.

    Be nice to the doctors and don’t perv out on the nurses.
