4 hours later, I emerge from the ER with 10 staples in my head.
Can I have some sympathy? x(

8. softball
a play at the plate. i was out. he made sure of that by diving in front of me, causing me to go flying in the air and land on my head. i have a mild concussion, 10 staples, and the bloodiest clothes i have ever seen.

22. no, they didn't shave my head

23. Did you get some good photos of the bloody clothes?
You in the bloody clothes would be even better. Cut some trading cards and sell them on the DU store. I would collect them all. Just as I would collect the Starbucks Barrista trading cards.

I'm sorry you got hurt, honey, and I hope you feel better immediately.

But please take some pictures.

54. Progmom was up front about the bloody clothes.
There was no need to tiptoe after the initial mention.

I'm just waiting with my 75 cents clutched in my hot little paw for the announcement that the five-packs of trading cards, along with sticks of hard pink bubble-gum, are available for purchase.

It's not bent, is it? It's just a desire to see some images of what progmom herself applied some superlatives to. Why did I know she would take some pictures?

I think, for one image, of that Sally Mann photo of her daughter with the bloody nose. Not to open another can with the mention of Sally Mann, mind you.

57. is that opening a can?
did that really screw up sally's career? gosh it was a while ago. it's hilarious that she took pics. how did you know she'd do that?
i like the idea of trading cards. does anyone still have that gum? i just want to smell some now.

79. I don't think the bloody nose or wet bed pics did any more damage
to Sally Mann's career than did her primary subject matter, which certain shrill voices claimed to be equivalent to, ahem, "kiddie porn."

I wonder how an exhibition of her work would fare under current law.

90. oh yeah i remember that well.
it wsn't that long after brooke sheilds, but sally took a lot of heat for it. i totally blank out as to what ever happened to her.
i think people are more understanding for some reason if you're selling jeans. i've worked with a lot of kid models, it's sad they all want to be J-Lo. little savages, most of them.

with her photographs of them, it would still be sick?

131. hmmm
I'll have to ponder that one, swag. I think being a parent is probably coloring my view. Also I am a very sensitive soul, so seeing something like that would likely upset me.

However, it's none of my bizness what you want to see! ;)

37. I love softball!
I've broken my arm and had other not so serious injuries, but I can't get enough of the game. Line drive to the chest (I pitch)also sent me to the ER. Just because the ball is not as hard as a baseball doesn't mean that injuries can't happen.

I hope you are ok and back on the field in no time. :D :hug: :hug: :loveya:

75. Head wounds bleed like crazy.
I had a friend that was pulled from a mardi gras float one year right on to her head. They stopped the whole parade because of the incident as she laid there on the street with her head bleeding like crazy. Her husband thought she was going to die there was so much blood. They rushed her to the hospital, she had a patch of her head shaved, they stitched her up and she was fine. We gave her a t-shirt that read "World's Largest Parade Throw" and a helmet to use the next time she rode in the parade.

I bet your clothes were pretty bloody. Yuck x(

Please take care of yourself :hug:

I hadn't responded to any of plethora of the shark week threads today. I guess I was saving it for you.

Went upstairs to say goodnight to my son and WTF was my son watching but a darned shark show on the Discovery Channel. I couldn't believe it.

Sounds like you'll be feeling that for a while. Do you have anything for the pain?

I'll quote one of my favorite British signs often seen over low staircases. . ."mind your head."

Feel better soon luv.

36. My dear progmom!
Here's bunches of sympathy for you, my dear! :grouphug: :pals: I'm so sorry this happened to you, and that now you have pain...Any cut in the face or scalp will bleed like a son-of-a-gun; there are many blood vessels there.

I'm sure they gave you advice, but here's just a bit from me: stay away from aspirin for the time being; it coats your platelets which are crucial for clotting and can make you bleed more easily. I suspect your MD already told you which painkillers you can take...

I'm so sorry you had this big shock to your life. Please take care, and not just physically. You need some psychological support too...This is shocking to your spirit as well as your body!

196. My last concussion (the last time I worked in the jail.
Decided I would never do it again) my daughter climbed in bed w/ me and cried. She begged me to never work there again. I was pretty bruised up so she was really upset. It hurts to watch your kid dealing w/ it more than anything.

I've had a few concussions and rest always seems to work. Sounds like you feel better already!

Sorry to hear it. All sympathies to you and your young one. Heck, I can even manage empathy, since I caught a house to the back of the head when I was 8. (Just don't even ask.) Hope you're getting some good sleep as I type this, and that the recovery is rapid and total.

183. I got you something



Didn't know if you could take the tylenol, so I got you this too.


Of course, you can use frozen veggies and after they have thawed, cook the veggies for dinner, making good use of your time and the veggies.

:hi: BTW - It's easy to be nice to nice people :pals:

Take care of yourself. :hug:

127. More sympathy here.
May you emerge even stronger than ever from this home plate collision. You bled cardinal red, but that probably isn't your team.

Did the catcher say anything? Do we have to wait for next season for payback?

177.  the catcher did try to apologize right after the incident

but i was busy trying to figure out where all the blood was coming from and i shooed him away.

141. Staples? Why didn't they just use glue or tape? That's inhumane!

165. Yowza!
For that, I will excuse you from Art Fair duty....:-)

Does the zipper on your head now match the zipper on mine? Or will it once the staples are out? My head was stitched just like a baseball.

And wishing I wasn't....too, too much to do and the Townie Party is going to be beastly hot tonight if we aren't completely carried off by severe thunderstorms.

But, I am glad to be back. LA is not for me....won't ever see me California dreamin'.

174. I hope the guy gets suspended for the next game
Umpire should take care of that for you.

I broke my nose playing softball (ball in the nose at home plate - I was playing catcher.) After two concussions in the past five or six years I am considering playing with a helmet - so should you.

I hope you feel better soon!
