Mine was somewhat different-I tipped over backwards, legs flew over my head, 
nothing I could do.

About an hour later one of my Foster guys came home and found me and wanted to 
know if this was the new game-he's a little slow.  LOL

He brought me a phone and I called my son and asked him where he was, of course 
it was 25 miles away.  He said OK, I will be there in a while.  I then told him 
I was upside down, and luckily he made it a very short while.

I'm guessing we all have similar, multiple stories. I keep telling myself that 
this time will be the last time, whether because I'll be more careful or the 
results won't be positive, but, like you said, it's part of quadlife…

When my son was two, he and I were out tooling around in the neighbors 
backyard. It was about 90°. We were going at a pretty good clip when all of a 
sudden my front wheel found a pothole hiding beneath the grass. Like you my 
head was thrown between my knees. I could not get up nor yell. It scared my 
little son to death. It was a heck of a situation. Finally, he ran to the back 
door crying. My wife finally heard him and came looking for me. I was rescued 
at the last second. To be that hot, breathless, and helpless is something I 
never want to repeat again. Just another one of the hellish attributes of 
quadom. Thank God for my young son.

Whew, that was a close one, Greg!  Let's not do that again, ok? The heat and AD 
together could have made for a very bad outcome.

I was going out the back door and fell forward. Into my lap. Joystick jammed my 
shoulder, but kept me from going further forward. Outside, 100 degrees, record 
humidity. Hard to breath, overheated, etc. Pouring sweat from A.D. It was bad. 
I thought it was hours, but it was just over 1 hour. I had to dump cold water 
on my head, put ice packs on. No one could hear me. It was no fun. The thoughts 
that go though your head. Between the pain, overheating, breathing, etc. No 
more going without chest strap. Greg
