Damn hospitals

[Apoc]

last monday I was burnt at work by molten zink. Large second and third degree burns on the left leg, pathches, from the knee, calf, multiple spots on the top of foot, heel, and ball of the foot. I tripped on a bolt in the floor (that shouldnt have been there), stumbvled, and one leg went into the 6 inch deep mould, about 600 degrees.

Luckily im a calm person and removed the boot, socks, and tore off the pantleg immediately, or it would have been much, much worse.

I've been in here since monday, had one surgery yesterday to remove the dead skin on the 3rd degree burns, and another tomorrow to graph new skin on them. I cant say im very excited. im here for at least another week, and my motorcycle and golf season are done until at least the end of july. And im off work on compensation until the end of september at the earliest.

I havent spent more than a few hours in a hospital since i was 6 (tonsilectomy SP?), besides 17 days in a detox center, which was much, much different. They had a gym and I could walk.

I may go crazy before this is over, but at least ive got a great team of nurses and doctors looking after me, and they are doing a fantastic job.

Im super happy i live in canada though, as when this is done ill be ridden home in an ambulance and attended by an extra-mural nurse to clean the wounds, and change my dressings, daily and the final cost to me will be 0$, so thats a bonus.

Anyway, just wanted to let you all know what was up, and say hello.

Im on dial up here too, so that isnt helping my sanity any!

Ladies, now would be a good time to pity me and show me your :boobs:

[Rangerscott]

Ya, I'd be stuck with a $200,000 or more bill and a kick in the ass while walking my self out the hospital.

Get to recovering.

[pauldun170]

Sorry to hear bout yer new scars APOC.

Heal up quick.

[Apoc]

Well, i'll agree to disagree. Ive recieved the finest medical care available, immediately and without question.

So how would anyone in they're right mind think they'd be better off with a 200k bill?

I didnt read the thread, but im guessing they are the usual mindless, rebublican sheep.

[Apoc]

Yup, read the thread, none of the comments suprised me considering who they collectively came from..

A couple are fairly thoughtful about it but yes, most are what I would class as "the usual sheep."

That really sucks. It was a floor level mold? Crap. Hope that they didn't have to excise too much :(

[Amber Lamps]

And that's why I don't get "War Room" threads anymore!:lol::lol::lol::lol:

Anyway, I feel for you buddy! When I was injured in the Army, my favorite Uncle Sam flew me to Nuremberg. Where I spent a wonderful 5 1/2 months recuperating! Yippee!!! I'm glad you're okay, and skin grafts suck!!! Try to stay positive, one thing I swear to you is true, you're attitude makes a huge difference in your recovery!!! Good Luck!

Ya, it was a fresh mould of zink that we were just finished tapping into.There was a hole in the floor, and we asked to have it fixed. The mechanic/welder was sent to weld a piece on to it, but the welding machine broke, it was the end of the day, so he bolted it down, with plans to bring up a new welder and finish it in the am.

Early the next morning, we were tapping, and I walked around the mould, not knowing about the bolts, while looking up at the crane (i was lowering the hoist to hook up the mould cover to put it in place on the mould, and tripped on one of the bolts. Left foot went forward and in to the zink.

[HurricaneHeather]

Dude that sucks ass. Glad you have good nurses and docs.

['73 H1 Triple]

Sounds like you have a good mindset and a great medical team to help you.

Good luck on healing and hope all goes well for you. :cheers:

Since I'm a guy, I won't flash you but will post these for your enjoyment :dthumb:

Damn, Apoc!

Glad to hear you are still here. Molten metals are no joke! :tremble:

Heal up quickly!

[Fleck750]

Heal up quickly.

Will have to disagree. Here in the US all your medical bills would have been paid also. We have workmans comp that would cover your medical and financial, being that it happened at work.

[askmrjesus]

You fucking Canadian prick.

I have all kinds of bike parts that need re-plating, but did you even think to call me before you stuck your big ass foot in the zinc tank?

No, you did not, you selfish bastard.

Some friend you are.

But just to show that I forgive you, here's some big-ass nun boobage:

Get well soon my son, (seriously, we could get three normal sized people in that bed).

JC

[CrazyKell]

Wow dude! Get well soon!

[Ninjakel]

Heal up quick, Apoc!!!!

[Apoc]

kel and kell, didnt you two hear me when I asked for boobie pics?????

[Apoc]

Ya, well, here we have medicare, on top of workmans comp, and it would be paid no matter where it happened, home or work.

that nun has some seriously nice titties!

I dont think fumed zink is what y9ou want to plate your parts in :td: When we speperate it, its no exactly pure, full of dross and arsenic. If not for that, I really could probably dip them for you and noone would give a shit because its worthless and useless.

I want to dip my old exhaust in silver, but it'd probably melt, and i'd get shot when they saw me on one of the 80 cameras... :didntdo:

[cbrchick]

Clary!! What the hell? Ya' just had to go and hurt yourself in NB, not NS... Well, I would have attended to you personally had you been here. As for the :boobs: pics... I'd send you some but this whole pregnancy thing has gotten them a little porn like. I wouldn't want you to have chest pains as well as leg pains.

I hope you heal up quickly.... Don't go picking at your grafts when things get itchy :) Don't want any funky infections to go with your new skin.

Glad you didn't loose any appendages....

XOXOXO

K, sweetheart, you know your my favourite nurse in the world! I'd much rather have you here with me than anyone else!

But, they are doing a fine job, and there are some cute nurses here who have one thing going for them that you dont, they are single! Hehe. I met one yesterday, she's supposed to come visit me after my sugery. Cute, young, and french, and just out of university. Yum . Only thing is she has a mans name (pascale), but one thing for sure, she is not a man!!

Ladies, now would be a good time to pity me and show me your :boobs:
I am sorry you were burned and I hope you have fast recovery.
But just a fact here in the states that would that would be covered under the wores compensation act and costs their would be no cost to the individual.

[Amorok]

Damn dude, that sucks. Feel better and keep your head up. Hey, if you're all bandaged up does that mean the hot nurse has to be on top?

[cbrchick]

I am sorry you were burned and I hope you have fast recovery.

Same here in this country. Thing is, you manage to hurt yourself like this in any situation, work or not, and everything in hospital is covered.

And you don't have to go bankrupt. And there's no waiting for treatment :)

[Amber Lamps]

Hahaha come on, can't you guys give it a rest?

That's what I'm talking about! Hey, I got laid in the hospital with a cast from my ankle to my ass! Where there's a will there's a way!!!:lol:

[Amber Lamps]

by the way, when someone says "Drop Acid" I don't think they mean it LITERALLY...

[wildchild]

[Apoc]

by the way, when someone says "Drop Acid" I don't think they mean it LITERALLY...

Holy crap, dude. I somehow missed this thread. Hope you heal up quick.

[Rangerscott]

Yup, read the thread, none of the comments suprised me considering who they collectively came from..


I'm guessing that's pointed at me for being Texan and all texans are republicans?

I'm not into political retardedness so I'm off the hook there.


Also I said "I", not "everyone in america." Its a joke as in all you hear about is free medical help in canada.

Tarmac = 1
Me = 1

since the tarmac got my bike but I went un-scratched.

[101lifts2]

Just saw this..WTH did you go and do now....I first thought you crashed and rashed yourself..but a work injury. Lucky you had boots on or may not have a leg left to stand on. Ouch...

OTOH..if you were in America, you would get all your medical paid and you could sue and get millions!:lol

[Flexin]

How is the leg healing?

James

[Particle Man]

[Apoc]

Meh... The skin is all fucked up. It blisters and breaks very easily. Still not back to work because of it. See a surgeon again on the 21st of this month.

Had my summer ruined running back and forth to a workmans comp center. Wasnt much fun.
