I've never broken a bone in my body once. Pretty remarkable for all this shit i've been through. Maybe I'm unbreakable.

You've probably broken fingers and toes but you're such a stud you didn't even realize it.
 
I was faced into the windshield of 1966 Dodge Van when I was 15. Opened a 4-inch swath on the top of my head, like potato skin peeled back. I started to walk home and someone grabbed me and said "your mom would not want to see you like this." 17 stitches and a couple of freaked-out parents. No seat belt and the seat was not secured to the floor. The driver simply drove into a parked car.
 
I have a page full of other stuff like broken bones and operations.

Born 1961

1966. Fell off bike going down hill by bear lake north muskegon and tore up my whole face. First foray to Hackley hospital.
1967-8 testicle operation. Born With A High One !!!! That string attached to my thigh.
Fucking SUCKED for two weeks!!!!!
1969. Broken left arm. Fell from a tree.
1970. Snapped right Femur playing football. Traction 7 weeks, body cast 7 weeks, 3 weeks learn to walk again. Lions lost 5-0 in playoffs at Dallas as I lay in my bodycast sadly :(
1978. Watson and Jones reconstruction of the left ankle (from basketball and steping in a hole ) 1004 inside stiches they said but I think that is bunk but it is a 15ish inch scar. Amazingly this ankle has probably only twisted in just a few times since.
1982ish acromioplasty shoulder surgery lifting weights I think
1984ish Scope of same From lifting paint at sears in back stock room at Frandor Lansing.

Then a period of interlude !!!! Sex, drugs partying ( in moderation lol) the mobile home behind Tom's party store. (Park long since been bulldozed over).

1987 move to vegas.

1995 Back goes out bad first time bend to lift Abbie from bouncy chair. Man it hurt.
1995-2017 (probably 30-50 back injections). I probably glow at night.

2001 broken right toe. (Kicked big steel thing at work cause bosses were assholes.
2001 broken right toe. First surgery didn't work . Put in big screw second times.toe doss not bend.
2001 right thumb nail bed. My late friend :( Gerald kick his door shut as I was grabbing the door jam. Nail was destroyed sticking straight up from the thumb. We we're drunk . Thumb looks like a damn toenail now.
2002 myocarditis heart inflammation, was super sick and I thought I was having a massive heart attack so they gave me a angiogram through the femoral artery in your thigh to make sure I wasn't blocked . Crazy day December 26th 2002. I got a 8 mile helicopter ride that cost 1900.00 dollars. But luckily we're doubke covered with the same insurance from 2 different casinos . Back then we had a great HR at Bally's and I the Manger was so cool as she said . " no f****** way you're going to pay for that I specifically asked them if ambulance ride included helicopters and they said yes" it was nice that she cared so much. The myocarditis I had a fever of 103 to 98 for 5 days in a row. Hot then cold. Hit then cold back and forth. Finally broke in 5 days. Doctor told me to get out if the smokey casino work.
2004 micro lumbar discectomy of the back. Didn't work :(
2004 in hospital for bladder infection. Dumb Asses gave me a spinal tap.
God those suck!!!!!
2004 moved to grand rapids.

Most o' that shit ya really don't have to go to the doctor for.

Most that shit eventually ends up healing on its own.

Except for the drinking and fucking in Vegas.

You might have to go to the urgent care in Vegas to keep that shit in Vegas.

There is no treatment for being a Lions fan.

It is a long, slow, horrible and painful terminal illness.
 
who stabs someone with a pocket knife? did you piss off a boy scout troop?

I dunno, but I'm thankful that's all it was. Also thankful he missed my gut.

There you go! First real reply ...lol


A group of us saw Public Enemy/Anthrax (along with Primus!) in Detroit and some punk punched my buddy in the face, breaking his nose. We went back to A2 after and to the hospital and there was another guy there who'd been punched in the nose by the same guy as our friend, suffering a broken nose as well.

Primus is amazing. Did you know the lead singer is genius level intelligent? Hard to believe with some of those lyrics lol...
 
Nope. Never a broken bone. I've torn some ligaments. That's about it.

I've never broken a bone either.

I thought I broke my finger playing football when I was 12, but the xray didn't show anything and the doctor said i probably had a fracture in the cartilage around the joint. i still had my hand in cast for 6 weeks.

tore my achilles tendon when i was 29. that sucked worse than a broken bone. was in soft cast & crutches for 7 weeks.

maybe I'm also unbreakable... or just more careful.
 
Wow. That's damn lucky.

Definitely. Was at a music venue while living in Vail and went outside at set break. Went to jump up and sit on railing and went over.

A couple friends ran down the stairs but I was already up and standing by the time they caught up to me. Something like, "Holy shit, how are you not dead?!" was said to me

so much for the "more careful" thing

It probably is some sort of minor miracle that I haven't broken a bone. It's probably a minor miracle I'm not dead, though. I've been through a lot of shit. Hell, when I was in the womb, my mom got in a car accident. I was due in 2 weeks. Back then they didn't have any of this technology where they could look at you, so they induced labor just in case something was wrong with me from the accident. Crazy now that ya look back on something like that compared with today's world. I was just fine, of course, if a little small and premature...was born 5lb and 3oz, the smallest of us 3 kids, then I grew to be the largest by a large margin.

I'm not 'more careful,' that's MC.

I've done a lot of stupid things over the years
