Am I the only one who has to laugh at the sexual frustration he's gonna have? Unless he gets like a hot nurse or something.

I thought about that, but then I figured that it's HH, and he'll find a way to resolve this little problem.

Don't ask me how, I'm not a guy.

Great way to find out if you have telepathic powers.



But honestly, that sucks. I assume he got someone to post the thread for someone. I would turn crazy if I wasn't able to use my arms for awhile...

...then I probably would start typing with my toes. Some people even do that.

I thought I wasn't going to be on for a while after my ex-girlfriend threw me out, but I made it through anyway, and I'm back to living with my mom (temporarily)...


If Hyperhacker could, I'm sure he would wipe the tears from his eyes for you.
If Hyperhacker could CRY that is!

Win.

And I'm so sorry man =\ I broke just one arm back in 2nd grade (my writing arm) playing tag (....), I know how much just that sucks. But two? Get better as soon as you can man, rest well and don't worry about this place, seriously. You have more pressing things to worry about ;x

That's the reaction to reading that post.

That sounds like it fucking hurts. I would not be able to stand it without arms. Only games I could play would be dancing games, but even then with two arms in severe pain it would hurt more than be fun.

Ouch. That has to fucking suck. Get well soon, HH. We will miss you for the time being.

Well it's still a long time before I fully recover but I can at least type now, albeit slowly & inaccurately. I doubt I'll be on AIM anytime soon but I can at least visit forums & scratch my nose again.
Posted by Xkeeper
that fucking sucks.
YES. It's not so bad now that I've healed a bit but at first between the injuries and being doped up on painkillers I couldn't so much as get in/out of a chair/bed without help. It was just today I was able to move them enough to remove my own pants to be able to pee on my own. Still can't wipe. Thank God my dad is here to help. Hell I'd have starved to death otherwise, being unable to prepare food nor even get it to my mouth.

What happened was I got stupid. Let adrenaline get the best of me. Tried to take a turn at ~50km/h, rolled the machine over on top of me. Lucky to be alive. Also lucky I went into shock, so there's a gap in my memory; I remember approaching the turn, then waking up in the hospital. Hence, I don't remember the pain.

Recovery sucks. I spent ~5 days in the hospital (memory's fuzzy from painkillers) which was severely understaffed & in need of new equipment. I never want to so much as hear the word catheter again. Damn thing had some sort of air-lock problem, so every hour or so, I had to get the nurses to come do whatever the hell they did to fix it. They said it usually doesn't hurt coming out but holy fuck. If there's one thing I'm glad of it's not being conscious when it went in. Also, one night they couldn't get an IV into my foot (and obviously couldn't try the arms). My veins were doing something weird, as they described it. So they had to try about 8 times before finally giving up. And let me tell you, a failed IV insertion hurts!

A few nerves are damaged, though the doctor assured me they'll eventually recover. It limits my hands' mobility; the wrists & fingers just won't move past a certain point. The left wrist just flops straight down. I have to wear these very uncomfortable braces to hold them in a good position so I can use my hands, and so the joints don't stiffen up. My elbows already have since the arms were held in a certain position for weeks. I can't fully extend my arms, the tendons have actually shortened. Again, they'll eventually recover or so I hear, but in the meantime it's a massive pain in the ass.

The worst part of it all is the timing. I was scheduled to take a trip to Ontario a few days later to visit my mom and go to Animé North. Before I moved to Alberta a girl I knew from school had, how to say, shown an interest in me. (Nothing perverted. ) She ended up moving to another town shortly afterward which killed any possibility of a relationship but we maintained contact through MSN Messnger. Long story short we had made plans to meet at the con. I should mention too that I'd give damn near anything for us to be together... anyway being unable to type, I had no way to tell her I couldn't make it. (I phoned, but couldn't get through.) I don't know what happened to her but as the hotel room was booked in my name, if she did show up, she'd have no place to spend the night, and since I had the confirmation sheet, she wouldn't even be able to get into the con. I've been signed into MSN for the past few days and she hasn't come online, so I fear the worst. Does she hate me now? Did she even make it home? I'm quite paranoid, you see.

There was one good thing that came of this. My dad bought me an Xbox 360 and a copy of Chromehounds (great game, but hard ) to help exercise my hands. (Hence how I've been signed into MSN. It's the same network.) Gamertag is rekcaHrepyH since of course my usual name was taken by some n00b (and just adding a number is no fun). I suck at the game so far though.

Oh yeah, I also managed to break the right collarbone, which meant for a week or so afterward, moving my right arm = HOLY FUCK THAT HURTS.

Emo emo emo... tl;dr: Xk hit the nail on the head so hard he drove the hammer through the board. Now, onto the other posts.

So did you type this with your nose or something?
Left middle finger. Picture the needle of a turntable. Rotate my chair using my feet, poke. Rotate, poke. (MouseKeys ftw.) Shift was especially difficult.


Worst I've dealt with, as far as my arms go, was fracturing one in a fight. Wasn't a full break, just a somewhat deep crack. Hurt like hell, but I could still play SNES once I got my arm in a sling, so I didn't care.
I found Super Mario RPG a great game to recover with. You can take your time pressing the buttons but jumping and magic require ever-increasing precision, so there's incentive to improve.

Then again, my father's friend Milt ended up dying from an ATV accident a few years ago, so...

Really, I try not to ride them anymore (not that it matters, we don't have any here
Another guy who was out with us (there were a lot of us) crashed into something and broke his neck about an hour later. He survived though, I haven't heard any more about him. I didn't know him, so...

I'd still ride one again, but a hell of a lot more carefully and much slower.

Yeah, there's that too. I try to look at the upside. You've heard "absence makes the heart grow fonder"? Same thing applies here. Seriously, go a few days without fapping and see how much better it is.
But I don't know how much longer I can hold out here...

Trust me, dancing is out of the question. I could barely walk at first.

Damn, long post, especially for having written it with 2 fingers...

I see what you did there.
I'm glad to have you back and I hope everything heals like it should.
I also broke my collarbone when I was younger and the doctors didn't set it right. Luckily I don't have any pain from it at all. It just looks funny.
Here's to hoping you get a hot girl to help you with your fapping problem.

I have nothing to say, other than what was said by the others.
So, I wish you a good recovery, and hope your next summer will not be in a cast.

Good luck HH.

Aww, I missed this thread when it first happened ... It's good to see that you have recovered a bit HH. Congrats on your 360, even if you got it very painfully

Best of luck in recovering - I'm sure you'll be ok after a while!

So, I, uh, guess you won't be riding ATVs anymore?

(or trying to corner at 50 KMH on one, at least)
