They claim this really, really happened. 

BELIEVE IT OR NOT  

OK all you medics......Top this one  

 

 

 

 

 

 This is an actual emergency room photo of a fisherman who lost control of his high-speed bass boat in West Virginia  Warden's believe that he was traveling at a speed of approximately 75 mph at the time of the accident. He was unable to negotiate a curve in the narrow waterway. Unfortunately for him, upon striking the shoreline and being ejected from the boat, he landed back end first on an old fence post.

You can probably picture what happened next, but the attached picture really says it all. The good news is that after about 6 months,this man made a full recovery after suffering a shattered hip, broken leg, several broken ribs, internal injuries and soft tissue damage. Doctors credited his recovery to the fact that the post lodged itself so tightly that there was little or no blood loss.

Now that's got to hurt!!!

She may be tiny but her spirit and beauty are HUGE. Megan and her family are truly an inspiration to us all.

Backlash? If you ever run into any static from anyone at all, bring them to my attention. I'm retired Air Mobile, but I still pack a hefty punch, by the moons! 2old2play is family. Blood. Don't you go worrying about trivialities and whatnot. It's Megan who's important and not some 2 stroke to the squirt with a closed mind. As ever, may the good Lord shield your family and you.

it looks real--considering the lack of blood flow in his left leg. My only problem is the chick in the back ground.....and the lack of people. Hmmmmmm.

What a cutie!!! Don't apologize Jolly; she is a precious angel and seeing that picture I just want to scoop her up and hug her. I see a 'normal' child, and certainly nothing to be ashamed about! I wish she wasn't having to go through these struggles, that none of your family had to. Hang in there!
