Worst Injury / Traumatic Event In your Life

[ssjbardock]

What is the wort injury you've had.

Doesn't have to be all physical, if it was a traumatizing paper-cut that works.
--------------
When i was 4 i had autoimmune hemolytic anemia (all my white blood cells kill all my red blood cells), and in order to get a marrow sample i was held down without painkillers and they drilled into my side and into my bones. COMPLETELY AWAKE. Still have nightmares.

I was on the front of a bike and got my foot stuck in the wheel which then shot me over the handlebars, snapping my leg and smashing my face on the pavement in the process. All in all, I had a broken leg, fractured arm, broken nose and 2 missing teeth (thankfully this was when I was 4, so the teeth grew back).

I was about 12-13?

I got pushed over and I landed on my wrist and split the bone through the middle.

From a simple push over, it fucking hurt.

A broken ankle that was supposed to keep me home for a month, but didn't. Cast and walking boot were enough to keep me going to school and whatnot.

Yeah, I don't get serious physical injuries. OK, they might be a tad serious when it comes to broken stuff, but I didn't even see a doctor this summer when I broke my thumb playing b-ball. Too much expense for something that would heal naturally.

A car I was in got in an accident and I didn't have a belt on. It was going pretty fast since I got thrown against the side of the car. Long story short I got hurt really badly.

 

[Super Six One]

While playing TAG rugby in reaaaaaly wet grass with crappy trainers on, i got slide tackled like you would in football, which invovled me flying about 10 feet thru the air and landing on my face and sholder.

The Result, muscle damage in my neck, cuts all the way down my face and body, slight fracture in my jaw bone, sholder fractured and slightly dislocated.

and i was totally covered in mud, haha

Both fractures where minimal, the dislocation was popped back in almost instantly and little damage as a result (apart from the cracking when i move it, thats really horrible when i let people hear it)



And i'll be honest, i never even went to hospital just stayed of school for a day so it really isn't that bad. Just sounds kinda bad.

Similar one here, I fell off a foot-high Croatian playground thingymajiggy when I was 9, and broke both bones in my forearm clean in half.
I still have the scar from when the old-skool Croatian doctors cut me open with a massive knife.
(I was asleep, derp.)

Had a heart attack at age thirty. Though the people around me were far more scared than I was...although I realized that there are still a few things left for me to do before I can honestly say I could die in peace.

Found religion, went back to school, making plans to move back home to Boston where I belong, looking for someone to settle down and have kids with, all those things that in my twenties I kept putting off thinking I would live forever.

 

[SnipErlite]

Ehh nothing major for either category. Bent the bone in my forearm years ago, broke my finger a couple of days ago.

As for trauma..nothing really. I've been lucky.

 

[Pielikey]

Almost getting whisked out to sea during a vacation, the ocean was rough and I was around 7 years old at the time...


Now I'm 15. I still NEVER SWIM in beaches, or large pools. Infact it's rare for me to swim in small pools, either.
Probably one of the most scarring incidents in my life.

No, I didn't get injured besides emotional scarring but this is pretty much all I got when it comes to traumatic events in my life.

EDIT: Oh except there was this one time I fell off my bike in a stupid way and stabbed myself in the stomach with the handlebars! They were rusty and the rubber grips had worn off them just enough so that it cut my stomach.

but that's about it.

 

[someguyfromhell666]

So far, no really bad injuries have struck me. The (dis)advantages of being a total shut-in.
Probably the worst thing that happened to me was when I hit my head while I was ice skating. My mom was stupid enough to think that my jacket's hood could be a substitute for a helmet.

My parents getting a divorce

I've never been the same

Getting mugged in a rough part of london, I didn't get hurt or anything and the two guys didn't even realise I had money so I got off fine, but I was about 11 and it was just me and a friend so it was pretty traumatising.

It's either that or being stuck out quite far from the shore one day at the beach on a red flag day (when a storm is happening and you are not meant to go swimming). I remember thinking I was gonna die each time a wave crashed over me and submerged me..

When I had swam back to the shore, I pretty much had a new lease on life and couldn't stop thinking about what could have happened..

Was that the kind of the thing you meant?

exactly...
the real point of this thread is to help people get traumatic events off their chests.
tell us your problems, let it all out
so... no jokes or fakes

Worst Injury? Got hit by a car while on my scooter, the impact of which fractured my left femur.

Most traumatic event? Bumping into this large Jellyfish as a kid whilst out swimming at the beach... never did enter the water again after that little encounter.

 

[Tsaba]

fell out the back of the truck and sprained my ankle hard, went into shock and couldn't feel from knee down, was alone for several minutes until someone stumbled onto me.

 

[lacktheknack]

Erm... probably watching my Grandma starve to death. That was pretty bad.

 

[ssjbardock]

oh last thing... if the poster doesn't mind questions are fine.
just no making jokes at there expense. its hard to talk about these things

Why did that happen?
