Welcome back Buddy!!

damasa 06-05-2002 03:55 PM

If my words and tears could describe how thankful I am to all of you.
 
These past few days I have been reading the posts and the private messages and the cards that I P.J. and my family brought me.

I would first like to thank all of you so very much, it has made a great impact on me and my new chance at life. I am grateful to still be here because from what I have been told, I almost wasn't (my heart stopped beating for about 45 seconds when I first arrived at the emergency room).

I have received many letters and cards in the mail and I would also like to thank all of you that sent one. I kind of feel bad that you did, I know they don't cost much, but we are all still broke college students (well most of us are). I would also like to thank all of you that have been thinking of me, praying for me and also sending your kind words my way.

I can't really describe how I feel emotionally right now, but I am kind of at ease. I guess considering everything that I have been through, i thought that this might hurt me more, but I've learned to keep on 'truckin." Physically, I am a wreck (no pun intended). I am in a lot of pain and it's hard to move my chest and right arm (so this is taking quite a while to type). Other small things keep coming up, and I have experienced pain in my right knee these past few days. I'm assuming that it might be my ACL, I may have injured it again since the first time it was injured back in h.s.

I hate being in the hospital and I want to get out of here, but I don't know how long I have to stay. I don't think I'll be getting out anytime soon. They are keeping me under observations for my breathing and other small things, but these are the reasons that I am being kept here. My chest is bruised to no end, and I have cuts and bruises and scrapes all over my body. I'm still sore and aching from the accident and I feel like i'm a seventy-year-old man suffering from arthritis.

I still have a long way to go, but I will get there, and this here laptop will at least allow me to not parish from boredom when I'm actually awake :)

Hey Blaine! I have been keeping up with things and wanted to let you know I was in an accident in January involving a semi. It is horrible. I know you are in a lot of pain, a lot worse than I was because your injuries are worse. You are a strong person and you are going to need that strength for the MONTHS ahead of you. What some people onhere may not realize is that even though you are in the clear and they give you pain medication the ache and weariness of your injuries takes a lot more energy. You will need as much rest as you can get and believe me it is not easy. Your friends and family are there for you though, and your GC family. If ever you need anything, ask. It isn't easy to do, I know that, but ask. You are not going to be everything you could for awhile and until then people will help you. Don't feel bad for asking, either because they want to help you, because you would do the same for them!
Good luck in your recovery, get out of the hospital because it is miserable there and take care of yourself!!!
