Bad Bike Accident Smashes My Face
I had a terrible bike accident that tuned into a major ordeal. I was coming down the hill way to fast on my bike when I fell off the trail in a patch of soft dirt and went flying over the handlebars. I was clipped into my pedals and did not come out in time to catch my self. I ended up taking the entire crash in the face (I am not sure what I did with my hands).
What happened after was worst then the accident itself. I was treated in two regional hospitals that almost killed me. The my life was saved at a third hospital. Sadly I found you can not trust our modern medical establishment. What I learned after is every nurse and doctor should know the ABC’s of keeping someone alive – airway, breathing and circulation. What is scary is two of the hospitals I visited almost killed me by ignore this basic principal. If you don’t mind gory pictures, there are more details and some pictures after the jump.
