With 5 fractures in one leg, strong painkillers have been my friend. In T2K where painkillers (aside from alcohol) could be very scarce, I reckon recovering from serious injury would be a thoroughly miserable experience. I can definitely imagine scenarios where wounded soldiers would seriously consider suicide. I think the pain and suffering involved in a drawn out recovery could inflict significant mental trauma all by itself.

Sorry to hear about your woes my friend...make sure you document all your calls or emails. Dates/times/numbers and such...lawyers can really screw people with the simple stuff.

Anyone see this on the news yesterday
No protective gear, no helmet and only got a bruised shoulder. The fates certainly smiled on him.

Oh man I am sorry to hear about your wreck!
As someone who has been in 4 different accidents, had 6 surgery's, been in a cast for 4 of the last 6 years I appreciate your dilemma and pain. My old motto used to be "don't look back, trouble may be gaining on you." I think a more appropriate one is "better living through modern pharmaceuticals."
Take care. Enjoy Valium.Comment

Yeah man, she smashed me good. I do consider myself pretty lucky to have suffered as few injuries as I did. Armoured jacket, armoured boots, armoured gloves, good quality full-face helmet. Those items saved me from an early grave or a much longer stay in hospital.sigpic "It is better to be feared than loved" - Nicolo MachiavelliComment
