Out of no where
« on: January 05, 2016, 03:44:48 AM »
I was helping my neighbors twin grand daughters put the bridle on one my Saddle bred geldings. He had some fungus in his ears and had always been sensitive with them. I always turn his head to the side to put on the bridle he lifted up and at the same time stepping forward got me off my feet and to the ground. I knew when I hit the ground I had really hurt myself this time! There was a small rock in the frozen ground and I hit it with dead center accuracy :bash:It had broken my femur bone just below the ball and socket. This has been by far the most painful things I have done in my life. I am thankful I didn't damage the ball & socket.
Happy New year.

I hope for speedy recovery for you. Did they use pins ? Or just set it.
Two years ago I had my inguinal hernia fixed. Was asking dr for two years before that, what that pAin is in my left side.  But nothing like a broken bone pain. Best wishes.

Hoping for a speedy recovery for you, and that your mental status stays good. I had a Fuel Truck accident 10 years ago and have had 5 neck surgeries and still not out of pain. Wishing you the best.

Ouch, I got lucky there, after getting rear ended, physical therapy for the most part has taken enough of the pain away that surgery won’t be required. Wouldn’t let em anyways as both an orthopedist and a neurosurgeon was taking about fusing vertebrae.

ijon, I know it doesn’t seem like it, but it could be worse, my uncle fell last year and literally broke his ass. Landed right on his tailbone in such a way to break it. Can’t be set, just had to live with it till it healed.
