Stick a fork in me! It just keeps getting better and better

[abcdefu]

Heading home from PT this morning, I was rear ended by a van this morning. I am now in the ER with horrible back and legs pain. My feet are numb and I'm just so upset.

I feel so defeated. I know I don't deserve any of this, but I just don't understand why this shit keeps happening to me. Please keep me in your thoughts. I am really hoping there aren't any setbacks bc I think I am going to have a nervous breakdown. I feel like I pissed someone off in a past life and I'm paying for it now.

Stick a fork in me; I'm done!

[quietmind]

Oh no:( I'm so sorry. I hope you are ok.

No really. What the actual fuck. I'm so sorry and will send you good thoughts. You are right you didn't deserve this. I just keep thinking life is sending you all the crappy shit at once and then in the future it will be cake. I hope everything is okay and sending tons of get well soon vibes your way.

I am so sorry, sending lots of positive and healing thoughts your way.

Thank you ladies. I seriously don't know what to do anymore. All I want to is live a normal life, you know, wake up go to work come home and pay bills, but for some reason life is handing shit sandwich after shit sandwich. I can't even believe this is my real life anymore.

Honestly I just want to move far away and start over but I know that won't do snytjing.

I was just informed that I am being transferred to a city university hospital where my neurosurgeon is bc this hospital doesn't have advanced technology for my conditions.

The ER doctor is sure that I have torn ligaments in my ankle from slamming on the brake to prevent a domino effect after I was hit and my thumb from jamming it on the steering wheel.

Thanks again for thoughts and prayers. All of this is happening for a reason I believe, I just not sure what the reason is. I will keep on truckin' though!

[MauMau]

I am so sorry. wow. Thinking of you.

[jigsy]

Maybe you'll meet a hot, single doctor

Sorry that life is beating you up right now. Good thoughts are coming your way.

[idahome]

I'm so sorry. ((Hugs))

[winecat]

Holy fuck! I am so sorry.

[katieido]

I'm so sorry. That's just rotten luck. I really hope it doesn't make things worse for you

[poptart84]

So sorry to hear! That is terrible! Hope all turns out well

[glitzyglow]

Big, huge hugs to you abcdefu.

Thanks again ladies! There is some good news in all of this; my amazing neurosurgeon called the ER doctor and told him to cancel the transfer because he knows my back issues the most and as long as I was able to move my legs, I didn't need to be transferred.

I have to see a hand specialist sometime this week, hopefully tomorrow, for the torn ligament in my hand. The hospital casted it and of course it's my dominant hand. I also have my foot in an aircast.

The other good news is that there isn't much damage to my car.

I took off work until Monday so I can relax and take care of myself. Thank you again for all the support and well wishes! They are very much appreciated!

Things have to start getting better, right?

Is it wrong that I'd LOVE to be a fly on your sister's wall if this were to happen?

I'm so sorry that this shit keeps happening to you.

[Deleted]

Oh no. ((abcdefu)). I'm so sorry. Did they keep you? How are you feeling?

[Saint Monica]

((hugs))

[abcdefu]

LOL jigsy! I hope!

@blueyes623 - I'm doing okay. I have a rupture of my ulnar collateral ligament in my thumb. I'm trying to get into a hand specialist, but it's hard because a lot of doctors don't want car accident claims.

It just sucks that i was starting to get my independence back and now I can't wheel myself or even bathe myself.

I hope the insurance for the person who hit you pays for all of this.

Can you go to a teaching hospital? I know it doesn't sound fabulous, but you may be able to get in quickly. (pm me, I can ask the guys at work if they know anyone out your way).

[cam13]

Sending you hugs and love.

Hope you're feeling ok today!

Also, I wanted to tell you that I met a couple through church. Their (now 5 week old) son was diagnosed with Spina Bifida, his doctors performed surgery while he was still in utero. She was so worried because she didn't know anything about it until his diagnosis. I told her about you, how even though you've had some setbacks and problems you're living independently, have a good job, friends, and are working to increase awareness of spina bifida--not just in kids but adults. It brought her so much comfort--she wasn't worried about caring for him, but she was worried what kind of life he would have as an adult. Hearing that there are adults out there, living on their own, with good jobs and lives really helped.
