I fell on Black ice this morning!
This morning when I was getting ready to leave to run to the farm to see to my other pets, I fell on some “stinkin black ice“ left over from the sleet we had yesterday afternoon and last night, I thought it was fairly dry there by my car I was wrong; I landed hard down on both knees and thankfully I Had just opened up the back door otherwise I would’ve landed on my face but the car door being opened really helped me out even though I jammed up my left shoulder area/arm this is also my injured side of course via my neck, but Oh My God did that ever hurt not only because I landed on my poor knees but I could just feel the jarring of every bone in my body scraping up against bone upon bone, its a really horrible experience and the sad thing is, Winter is just starting you know?
And why is it that when we fall like that another thought that runs through our minds is, Get up….GET UP before someone see’s you! My brain is screaming in pain but yet there is always that voice too of GET UP…GET UP!!! So I very ungracefully struggle to “GET UP”, and I’m cussing out loud I’m in so much pain and I get into my car wait a few minutes to compose myself and head out to the farm, see to my pets there tell my Dad what I did , I use his phone to call my chiropractor here in town and head over there and I tell you having him work on me is great most days but when you have the type of injuries I have anyway 24/7, then to have fallen like I did this morning, I’m already in so much pain from my knees and shoulder being all wrenched out of whack I tell you I just could not hardly stand it and try as I might I had tears welling up in my eyes and I’m just “asking him” to just stop just STOP!! I couldn’t take it any more;
There is this gadget contraption he uses on some of my problem area’s of my ribs to me it looks like something we used to use on the farm when giving shots to the bigger livestock you know there is no needle on this “gadget” but on the base tip of it is nothing but steel and it kinda pounds you shot like into those bones/ribs on your breastplate and shoulder area that is where I just could not stand him “banging” that thing on me anymore I’d rather just suffer than have that thing jab me again and again and again!
He wants me back in there on Saturday which is fine, I will need my back and neck popped again but I dread him using that blasted thing on me it always bruises me so badly…none of my other doctors I go too uses this thing, I know each doctor, each chiropractor are all taught different techniques to use but I HATE THAT THING!
So most of today has been spent with me knocked out on pain killer’s and muscle relaxer’s I took a really nice long nap and I’m sitting here fighting off closing my eyes again, so with that I’m gonna leave it there, be careful guys, winter weather is a fickle thing!!!
