Since none of you would take the time.

This man was riding a motor cycle and was clipped/sideswiped while exiting a freeway. He lost control since it was his front fork that seems to have been clipped. The off ramp took was a bend, while he continued straight trying to grab his bars. He was thrown 250+ ft and mauled beyond comprehension. He woke up, and had to yell for help with 90% of the meat around his knee missing, bones exposed. Fingers hanging on by tendons, those that were still attached. His arm was missing most of its meat down to the bone.

He was picked up and was in a coma for some time. 17 surgeries costing what he says 1.3 million, later he is "lucky" to be alive. As you can imagine though that kind of thing will not only mess you up, but also your finances. Basically, he could see no joy in life as bill collectors hounded him, and social security and welfare wanted him to sign papers with the hands he didnt have. He wished he had simply died on the road side instead of having to put up with the imense physical and emotional pain that must be involved with being ground like hamburger, and having everything you enjoy in life removed from you.


READ THE FUCKING THING.
He paints a much more vivid picture.
