2.5 liters of blood in your abdomen, and you weren't feeling woozy or light-headed? That, on average, is half the amount of blood in the human body!

Oh, I was feeling woozy alright, but with half of my blood gone, I was not really thinking coherently

. Kind of like being extremely drunk, but telling everyone you are fine, good to go. Fortunately, my dad was thinking a lot clearer and knew that involuntarily curling up in the fetal position of death every few minutes wasn't normal and made the decision to stop

What was really interesting was about this time 4 years ago, I was awake and coherent enough to kind of know what was going on...and I knew something was NOT right Think hippity-hop!

Turns out all of that blood in my torso had to go somewhere, and the boys were the lowest point it could drain too...

And the nurse wanted me to get up and walk. That was an interesting sight I'm sure.

Did they touch the water when you sat on the toilet?

Steve · 01-13-2013, 07:41 PM

I couldn't get to a toilet for almost a week!

I will say it was real disorienting to wake up, under the influence of morphine and other pain meds, and wonder why someone put a cantaloupe between my legs!

Cantaloupes go on the chest

Glad you are around to fish, smoke and enjoy family and friends.

Glad to see you're still kicking, Brother!

STEVE S · 01-15-2013, 01:54 PM

That was a crazy story, had you made a full recovery.

RevSmoke · 01-15-2013, 02:26 PM

I seem to remember that story.

Praise the Lord that you are still here.

Peace of the Lord be with you.
