head injury
ken posted,
I was talking to a friend yesterday who I hadn't seen in a
few months. Turns out, he just got out of the hospital
after falling off his skateboard. He landed on his head and
he ended up in the hospital for 8 weeks. For two weeks,
he forgot how to speak. He spent over a month relearning
how to walk. His skull is still fractured and it's going to be
several more months before he is healed and can even
think about skateboarding again.
Bottom line: If you wear a helmet, you're a pussy. This guy
healed up just fine.
