longboarding accident. put my hand into a concrete curb at ~30mph. shattered my thumb tip and the head of the radius in my right arm, and caused a Stener lesion, which is where you tear the ligament that makes your thumb functional. that's where the metal is, holding that ligament together now.

still have scars on my palms and lost portions of tattoos on both my knee caps from the road rash. that's why i wear full gear every time i'm on my motorcycles too lol road rash sucks more than broken bones.

I had road rash from my left knee to my left shoulder. 99.9% of it has healed over. It's been 40 years since that happened. I got run off the road on a bike.

for sure, that accident ended my skating days. i've broken my ankle and tailbone several times on a regular deck both street skating and at parks, but this was the last straw. decided i was too old for the shit and simply can't afford to have only one functional hand/arm for months on end since i kinda need both to type.

I've broken my shoulder. That is a kind of pain that you feel nowhere else on the body. I still rode with it though.

@BionicKroniK I have never grown an auto....almost did once and even bought a seed but never got around to it and gave it to a friend. blackberry auto I think. My friend liked it though and said I missed out. I have always worried that autos were too low in quality but then I go and grow a landrace that tastes like timothy hay.

oof i bet the recovery on that was fun. moving somewhere cold would be even more fun.

i have a piece of metal holding my right thumb together. temperature shifts are always a fun experience.

Yeah...Was NO fun time, that's for sure, I could't use my left leg for 3 MONTHS, THEN came the PT, basically learning how to walk again and do your normal every day activities like sitting on the toilet and standing from the toilet! 😵 Ikr, the kind of stuff we take for granted until we lose the function of our limbs, etc., like being able to stand long enough to brush your teeth or wash dishes, laundry, cleaning...OMG! Talk about OCD with anxiety overload AND PTSD on top of that now...I was a HOT MESS! 🤣 @ComfortablyNumb who told me, "There's no such thing as a "Hot Mess"...But that was ME, I didn't even have a frickin' knee and I had a "cankle" instead...🤦‍♀️🙃😄

In the hospital for about 2 1/2 wks., then in a rehab facility for another 2 wks. or so (2nd and 3rd pics)...

yup.... will never again take for granted being about to put on a shirt, or pants, or socks, or even toothpaste on a toothbrush.. the little things you don't realize are really fuckin easy because you have two limbs, but when one is non-functional, they're damn near impossible.

bet those scars are awesome though haha scare kids with em and whatnot

We call it "hitch hiking", whether you're doing it by skateboard, bike, roller-blades/skates, or on foot in the middle of winter (says @ComfortablyNumb 🙃😅)... 🤷‍♀️ 😂
