Have been in hell Reply #5 – July 17, 2006, 10:43:28 AM I was heading down a gravel road with some of my guys to start construction of a 400ft tower for a cell phone company in northern Alberta...the road has a long curve to it going to my left, as we came around the bend some dumbass was doing about 140kph towards us around the bend right in the middle of the road. when we seen each other he couldnt get out of the way in time and plowed into my side just before the drivers door. All i remember is airbags and thats about it! At least my guys were ok as i am firm with the seatbelt use in my company vehicles. Poopy thing is i just bought the 06 chev 3/4 tonne 5 days earlier and she was wrote off. His insurance is on the hook for that one thank god. Quote Selected

Have been in hell Reply #8 – July 17, 2006, 11:45:17 AM Ya when i searched for myself i seen the nice drawn pics and etc then i scroled down to the real life photos... when i seen that i had to turn my head away as it was waaaay to yucky for me. I can look at other peoples boo-boos but that turned me off like right now! The part that sucks is i only have 1 limb that is working right now. I have been told i will be as good as new...around Christmas. Lots of T3 and perkasets though! Quote Selected

Have been in hell Reply #12 – July 17, 2006, 07:33:43 PM Ouch! Thank goodness for air bags. Get better soon, and good luck with physical therapy. I thought my knee surgery was bad ... but it definitely got worse once they started bending it. Quote Selected
