Hi All. Kevin here from Grand Marais. Good to chat this morning with others who know what it is like.
My experience is chainsaw/tree related. I am told that a branch bounced up and hit me. I remember starting to cut the branch, then woke up 6 hrs. later in a HCMC. Thankfully I was not home when it happened as I'm 2 hrs. from the nearest trauma center. Both bones in my left forearm and both jaws broken in addition to the TBI. Why is a 66 year old guy running a chainsaw? Because I can. I finally bought a replacement last week, It got wrecked too.
I feel fortunate because even though "full" recovery is still a long way off, I can do most anything I want to do. I went roller blading about a month ago and I have bought my season pass for Lutsen Ski Area. I can't do anything as fast as I used to, But I can do it!
Hopefully you all will too.
