Just wanted to say Hi to everyone!! I have been out of pocket for almost 2 years.

 

On January 8 2004 I (am told) ran a red light and was T boned by a half ton truck. I understand the jaws of life had to cut me out of the top of my truck.

 

I was in ICU for 23 days and had surgery twice in four days. My injuries included: FX left and right hip; FX right pelvis: Shattered left pelvis; Collapsed left lung; 7 Broken ribs left side; FX clavicle; Closed head injury.

After leaving the hospital, I was in a Skilled (HAHAHAHAHAHA) Nursing Facility for nearly 6 months.

 

In October of last year I moved back into an apartment of my own and a week later I had a Total left Hip.  Even with 4 plates, 25 screws and a total hip I can walk again.  Sadly to say I can't dance wurth a durn anymore, but Oh well!!!

 

I have really recuperated well and would love to come to the April reunion but I will be there in spirit only. Everyone have a great time!!

 

Sad to see the misfortunes of other classmates and their families.
