Morgoth Posted February 21, 2010 Posted February 21, 2010 Today I learned that my dear brother in law felt from 6 meter height down with his back on a rock. Now he's in hospital, fighting for his life. My sis and his 2 year old son are emotionally destroyed, like the rest of the family. You never know what **** can happen to you, but it always happens when it is least expected. This sucks. Rain makes everything better.
jaguars4ever Posted February 21, 2010 Posted February 21, 2010 You have my sympathies, Morgy. Sometimes life has us stuck between a rock and a hard place. It's almost like one can't catch a break. You think everything's arlight, and then *BAM* life hits you stone-cold in the face.

Blarghagh Posted February 21, 2010 Posted February 21, 2010 Oh man, that is just a whole bundle of suck. My sympathies go out to him and his family. I hope he makes it through without permanent damage.
RPGmasterBoo Posted February 21, 2010 Posted February 21, 2010 (edited) You have my sympathies as well. Have faith, it might yet turn out well. Edited February 21, 2010 by RPGmasterBoo Imperium Thought for the Day: Even a man who has nothing can still offer his life
Morgoth Posted February 21, 2010 Author Posted February 21, 2010 Okay, so his spine is broken, and he also got a hematoma on his lungs. But his condition now is stable (phew). I'll pray for him, even if I'm not the religious type. Rain makes everything better.
Kaftan Barlast Posted February 21, 2010 Posted February 21, 2010 Atleast he's not dead. DISCLAIMER: Do not take what I write seriously unless it is clearly and in no uncertain terms, declared by me to be meant in a serious and non-humoristic manner. If there is no clear indication, asume the post is written in jest. This notification is meant very seriously and its purpouse is to avoid misunderstandings and the consequences thereof. Furthermore; I can not be held accountable for anything I write on these forums since the idea of taking serious responsability for my unserious actions, is an oxymoron in itself. Important: as the following sentence contains many naughty words I warn you not to read it under any circumstances; botty, knickers, wee, erogenous zone, psychiatrist, clitoris, stockings, bosom, poetry reading, dentist, fellatio and the department of agriculture.

Hurlshort Posted February 21, 2010 Posted February 21, 2010 Glad to hear he is stable. My thoughts are with you.
Gorgon Posted February 21, 2010 Posted February 21, 2010 An enormous icicle dropped right near me yesterday and would have impaled me but for luck. The line between life and death is flimsy indeed. Rotten luck about your brother in law. Na na na na na na ... greg358 from Darksouls 3 PVP is a CHEATER. That is all.
Purkake Posted February 21, 2010 Posted February 21, 2010 An enormous icicle dropped right near me yesterday and would have impaled me but for luck. The line between life and death is flimsy indeed. Rotten luck about your brother in law. A couple of people have actually been hit by icicles around here this winter.
Syraxis Posted February 21, 2010 Posted February 21, 2010 You have my sympathies, I hope your brother in law has a speedy recovery.
Morgoth Posted February 21, 2010 Author Posted February 21, 2010 Thanks for all the condolences. He's now sleeping like a baby (under morphine). Rain makes everything better.
Oerwinde Posted February 21, 2010 Posted February 21, 2010 Any idea if he'll be able to walk? The area between the balls and the butt is a hotbed of terrorist activity.
Walsingham Posted February 21, 2010 Posted February 21, 2010 I kind of sympathise. I mean, you must be feeling terrible. However, I would tentaively suggest that life in general does not suck. Life in its natural form ****ing rocks. I say that despite all the crap which has happened to me recently, and the fact that I'm sitting here having just washed out of training after busting my back quite badly and my life plan being shot to ****. I say this mainly because I was out on ptrol last night, freezing my nuts of, hurting all over from being beasted about the place. it was -5 degrees C, and we were sleeping in the open. Then it began to rain, and I got soaked. But i looked up at the stars and I thought 'My God, I ****ing love being alive.' "It wasn't lies. It was just... bull****"." -Elwood Blues tarna's dead; processing... complete. Disappointed by Universe. RIP Hades/Sand/etc. Here's hoping your next alt has a harp.
Dragon Lord Jones Posted February 21, 2010 Posted February 21, 2010 i feel for ya ... best of luck to your B-in-law . I lost my sister the day after thanksgiving to cancer one of my brothers suffered a major heart-attack just before x-mas (doing better but still high risk after surgery) and another brother almost died just after new years ... kidneys started shutting down, high fever, fell broke several ribs , just a bunch of different problems (doing better now) and most recent yet another brother of mine was just in the hospital for pneumonia and found he has several spots on his lymph nodes (probably cancer) more test are being done it's been a horrible time for my whole family
Krookie Posted February 22, 2010 Posted February 22, 2010 best of luck to your family. update us on his condition whenever you can!
Orogun01 Posted February 22, 2010 Posted February 22, 2010 I wish him a fast recovery and hope for the best. Don't lose hope. I'd say the answer to that question is kind of like the answer to "who's the sucker in this poker game?"* *If you can't tell, it's you.
Raithe Posted February 22, 2010 Posted February 22, 2010 To go with my favourite quote when life feels rather crappy.. "You know, I used to think it was awful that life was so unfair. Then I thought, wouldn't it be so much worse if life *were* fair, and all the terrible things that happen to us come because we actually deserve them? So, now I take great comfort in the general hostility and unfairness of the universe." "Cuius testiculos habeas, habeas cardia et cerebellum."
vault_overseer Posted February 22, 2010 Posted February 22, 2010 Sending him mega rays of healing: pew-pew ==============================>>>>>>>>
~Di Posted February 23, 2010 Posted February 23, 2010 OMG, I'm so very, very sorry that this has happened to your family. My best wishes for his full recovery from this terrible accident.
Shryke Posted February 25, 2010 Posted February 25, 2010 in the past 6 months or so, i know 2 people that have broken their backs considering the grave nature of the injury i'm astounded that they have both pulled through remarkably well, with no major permanent problems i can only hope your brother in law brings that up to 3 lucky souls when your mind works against you - fight back with substance abuse!
Morgoth Posted February 25, 2010 Author Posted February 25, 2010 Okay, I was maybe dramatizing a bit too much. His spine wasn't completely broken, and now he's wearing one of those funny supporting belts around his back. He's doing just fine and recovering fast. Good, because I need him help me dragging some furniture for me. Rain makes everything better.
jaguars4ever Posted February 25, 2010 Posted February 25, 2010 He's doing just fine and recovering fast. Your brother-in-law is clearly Batman.
Blarghagh Posted February 25, 2010 Posted February 25, 2010 And the rock he fell on shall henceforth be known as Bane, the rock who broke Batman's back!
~Di Posted February 26, 2010 Posted February 26, 2010 Okay, I was maybe dramatizing a bit too much. His spine wasn't completely broken, and now he's wearing one of those funny supporting belts around his back. He's doing just fine and recovering fast. Good, because I need him help me dragging some furniture for me. Woot! I'm so glad to hear that he's doing well and will recover!
