A little accident,


I am still in one piece.
with some bumps and bruises...here and there...

I had a little accident with my bike,
Bumped my head on the sidewalk,
Scraped the skin off my right hand,

have some very beautiful black, bleu, purple, yellow and green bruises
on my body...

Have a consusscion, too...
A big bump on my head.... Pffff, sighs....

Yeah, Yeah, i know what happened, i know the sequences of this accident.

And, now there is finally some real good sunshine!
I am sitting in my house, with the curtains closed
wearing sunglasses when i need to go out, do some shopping..

I take good care of myself, i use homeopathic gel on my black and bleu skin.
Arnica gel.
i take some homeopathic medicine, to release the trauma on the body.
Take naps!
When i feel, this was too much, i have to lie down...

Cant clean my house, cant work in my garden, cant read anything
just sit and lie and wait till this is over...

My friends, being very caring, telling me, you háve to go to the doctor!

I tell them, i know what i need to do, with a concussion.
I know how to take care of my body...
So finally, just to stop them, worring,
I call the doctor.

You know what the doctor told me?

Dont go into the sunshine, stay indoors, use sunglases,
dont stay too long outside, when you have to go outside!
Keep your rooms dark, drink alot.....
and take naps...

DUH!
That was what i was saying! All along...

So reading on this screen is a bit tiring for my eyes.....

stay safe, healty and enjoy yourself.
I ll be back!

This is my third concussion in my life.

This is a minor one, had some real big ones before....
I told people, when they asked me, how i was coping...
I said; i am made from hard wood,

(but even hardwood, has a soft centre.....)

Damn rosa...

Take care of yourself...
Because I have never had a concussion.
And 3 seems like a lot to me...

I have had a concussion 3 times. Not always fun, especially the last one. Take it easy.

perhaps a helmet is in order. I wouldn't want you to become brain damaged.
As far as bruises go. Gently rub them with a fine bristled hair brush. do this several times per day. This will breakup the blood clots into smaller particles and speed up recovery. Trust me it will be much better than to leave them on their own. Wear some leather gloves. Even the ones with the fingers cut out offer some protection. The first thing that hits the ground is going to be your hands or your head. It's always like that.
I hope you weren't doing a wheelie. Every time I get into trouble it's from riding on one wheel...I guess it's easier to ride on one wheel on a motorcycle.
Anyway..Watch yourself. Your head isn't that hard.
Rick

always, Rick,

Do you know, how ugly those helmets are?
You wont find me dead, with such thing, on my head! sorry....

Gloves are a good idea, although i love it, when it is finally warm enough to have no gloves on.....decisions! ?
I massage my bruises every day, several times a day.

Hahaha, No wheelie!
Ooh, a wheelie on a motorbike! WOW impressive!

Just distracted..... and my bag got in the way, between my wheel and frame,
so that was that, BAM!!

I think, every thing is still in one piece, inclusive my brain...
Thanks for your concern.

lance,

It has been a week, now
I am doing fine.
I was shouting real loud, when my head hit the sidewalk!
So, i dont care of people saw me, i needed help!

There were 3 very nice women who helped me.
The wounds are healing very fast, so that is great.
The bruises are getting smaller and smaller, allready.

So, i take it easy, for just one more week, and see how it goes.
