okay i am doing this to clear up any questions or rumors people have and to keep people informed....last Saturday i was playing softball at the early bird tournaments in Covington Va. i was pitching and was hit by a line drive ball on my face above my left brow. i was then taken by ambulance to Alleghany Hospital. i then had a CT and was shipped off by ambulance to UVA and spent hours into the night there to get yet another CT and to be told that i have two fractures..one being a frontal sinus cavity fracture and the other being an orbital fracture by the sinus cavity. i was then stitched up with 10 stitches and talked to about surgery....
the middle of this emblem is where the ball hit and the five pieces just scattered almost like a bowling ball being dropped on a floor of tile and the tile going everywhere. |
So everyone asks can you see did it affect your vision? no i have perfect vision just like i had before it happend..also people ask does it hurt? no because it damaged a major nerve and i have no feeling from bottom of eye socket to 3 inches in my hair line on left side. which right now is a blessing in disguise. All i really can say is it couldve been a lot worse.
