Once again the back injury strikes again. I awoke at 1am on Monday morning to find I could not move my legs, my back or any part of my body. It took 45 minutes to arise from the bed before my husband rushed me to hospital. I get there to find out I have an inflamed tendon, suspected as a result of my previous injury. I now am on some prescription drugs with nauseating side effects. I walk like I am 100 years old and cannot stand, sit or lay for anymore than 15 minute intervals. My nights are sleepless with constant interruptions from the pain. Never cold or hot compresses ease the pain and the medication is constant.
It has now been more than 14 months since my accident and after thinking I was free and clear of any long term effects, I must think again. I continue to see the elderly driving around my town who should not be driving, making mistakes, taking chances. How long before our system does something about the unjust they cause to innocent victims like me? I'm 36 going on 100.
