I still wonder if there was any active substance in the IV...................My roommate at the hospital’s name was John Dillinger, from West Virginia. Guy had the exact same birth date as my Dad. Other than that he kept soiling himself and kept me up all night with a cadre of nursing staff cleaning him up.......

Thought you would enjoy swapping war stories!
Pain wasn't too bad as I biked the 4.5 miles home but after showering I tried getting into bed and that's when the fireworks went off. Got that upset stomach wanting to puke but just got dressed and into car.

2011 when bicycle crash resulted in a minor broken neck and collar bone they put me in a room with a stroke guy and same with him keeping things smelly 24/7!!

Thinking I'm just skipping the month of APRIL from now on since neck crash, cancer diagnosis, scapula crash all in April.

Been up about 2 hours having been AWAKENED BY a knife in my back. YUP, STILL HAVE PAIN reminding me AND the ironic thing is I don't even care for bacon.
