Hello Everyone!!! This is My First Post
Hello everyone out there in the Steemit world. This is my first post here or anywhere. I've really never been a Facebook fan. But as I am a single dad of 3 wonderful kids, I really never had time to get on there. Don't think I"m really missing anything. But here is a little about me and why I'm making time to get on Steemit.
Like I said earlier, I am a single dad of 3 wonderful kids.. About 8 years ago I had a very bad wreck and I am very lucky to even be alive. Let me see what all happened to me? Ok to start I broke my nose, 3 ribs and had a concussion. My collar bone was sticking out and they had to take cartilage out of my knee to put it back in and hold it in place. I had tore my bicep off and it had to surgically put back in. They didn't quite get it right so now I can flex it and it balls up like a baseball. My kids called me Popeye, and laugh now that I am better. I also had tore everything in my shoulder and have had to have 7 surgeries on it. I fractured my femur. I also fractured my lower back and neck. But the worst thing was I broke my pelvis in 3 places and ripped the cartilage that holds it together, and that is the strongest cartilage in the human body. I had to have part of my hip cut out and inserted in between the two parts of the pelvis. They then put 2 metal plates in and screwed six 3 inch screws into my pelvis. This was called fusing my pelvis. I also separated my hip and had to have a screw put into it to hold it in place. I had to live in an old folk nursing home for 6 months. I tell you I'll never put my mom in one of those after my experience there. I am now on disability and believe me it is so hard to even live on what I get. Thus the reason I am trying this avenue to make just a little bit of extra income. I am not asking for anything. But I would like to be of value to everyone by bringing content that you enjoy. I admit, I do not fully understand this, so be patient with me. Anyway that's a little bit about me and what I am hoping to accomplish on here.
I am attaching a pic of an Xray of my pelvis. Hope it doesn't gross you out...
Well I can't figure out how to attach a pic, so if I can figure it out I'll attach it later.
Thanks everyone and have a great day or night, wherever you are in this crazy world....
