Jessica 0 #1 November 30, 2003 My pelvis and tailbone are both broken. Last Saturday my canopy collapsed and dropped me 10 feet (right into a fire ant bed, how's that for insult to injury!). I spent five days in the hospital and now I'm home with my parents. Sorry I've been AWOL, but this is the first time in over a week I've been able to sit upright for more than three minutes. I'll post in the Incidents forum as soon as I'm up to it, so you incidents nazis chill for the time being. I'll be fine! I made them take my gear off before the paramedics got there so everything is in great shape except me. I'll be back in the air in a couple of months.Skydiving is for cool people only Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jessica 0 #12 November 30, 2003 QuoteMaybe you can fine a nice man-servant to help you out! He'll be here tomorrow. Thanks for all the kind thoughts. I'm in a lot of pain, but it's nothing compared to last Saturday when I was freshly broken and the hospital technicians were indelicately shoving me into the CAT scan machine and such. I'm happy to be home with my family and my pain pills. It gets a little better every day, and I just have to be patient and resist the temptation to rot in bed.Skydiving is for cool people only Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
