Re: Woman Impaled on Spiked Fence.
Meant to say "he had very little bloody loss".. When I was typing that ... I should have been in bed. Also, doctors told him inch to the left, would have got the artery in the shoulder.. slightly different angle, would have caught the carotid.. and inch in further he would have gotten his trachea. lucky guy eh? They kept him overnight for observation.. they were afraid he injected air into the wound.. He was running from his older brother and his oldest brother (Me..) when he fell and got impaled.. Of course I felt like a dick about it all for some time to come.. When he was younger back then....poor guy was at the hospital like once a month for stitches for something or another.. aptly earned the nickname "bruiser".. |
