Good luck to you!

I recall when Yogi Barra was catching for the Yanks, when he took a pitch to
the head.  They took him to the hospital for x-rays.  According to the radio
announcer, "The x-rays found nothing."

Hey Guys!
 
Well, now I know what a concussion feels like ­ it hurts!       Monday
evening I fell in the house on our ceramic tile (hard stuff).    My husband
called 911 and they transported
us to the hospital.    I had passed out before I fell, so had nothing to
brace the fall.   Eddy was just a few steps behind me but couldn¹t get to me
in time to stop the fall.   Anyway,
I fell right on my face ­ huge bump immediately.            The ER gave me
an IV to put in meds for pain (!!!) and nausea.    That helped quite a bit.
Then they did a cat scan and found
I had no broken bones.   Doc¹s were shocked, but pleased.   I really do have
a hard head!    They then sent us back home and I have been very quiet ever
since.   Doc¹s think I may have
had vertigo.
 
I look a lot like a raccoon  -  eyes really black and purple and forehead
and bridge of nose really swollen.   I am a mess, but relatively little pain
for having such a concussion.   Each day
we are checking out the changes in shape and color in my face.
 
Just thought I would keep you guys up with my adventures.
