Share your scars

[Killer Bees]

Trevor, I'm very happy to hear that your sense of self worth is improving.  It's quite liberating when you realise that you don't have to be what some rotten SOB says you are.  You can be who or whatever you want, good or bad.  Life is all a choice.  And if someone says you are a wonderful person it's because you are.  No proof required.

For what it's worth, I am very proud of you for keeping body and soul together and for soldiering on in spite of all the rotten things you've been through.  It just goes to show you that you are a wonderful man with much to offer the world.  You've certainly kept me going over the years when I was having a hard time in my life.  Even if I never said anything.  This website is a great community of hilarious conversations, crazy posters and eye opening information.

How do I know all these things?  I'm a woman and we know everything.  Just ask anyone.

My sense of self worth is improving but my undies are deteriorating. Rapidly.  

For what it's worth, I am very proud of you for keeping body and soul together and for soldiering on in spite of all the rotten things you've been through.  It just goes to show you that you are a wonderful man with much to offer the world.  You've certainly kept me going over the years when I was having a hard time in my life.  

Awwww........ *HUG*  

If you want a laugh, read my reviews of City of The Living Dead and The Protector: I had fun writing those. 

This website is a great community of hilarious conversations, crazy posters and eye opening information.

This is more than a website community: this is a family.

Aaaaannnnnnnnddddd........... another hug for you.  

How do I know all these things?  I'm a woman and we know everything.  Just ask anyone.              

Amen, sister!

I don't have many visible scars, and my emotional/psychological ones are hardly worth mentioning in present company.

I do have changes to my bones.  I was not even aware of most of it (as in I did not know how much damage I had done at the time, since no out-and-out fractures were involved): then I had x-rays done of my shoulders (for another condition) and the orthopaedic surgeon who looked at the films began 'reading' my history of injuries to me...   I've had my share of falls, wrenches and bumps.  (I break and train horses for a living).  As long as everything continues to work just fine, I don't want to know what tales the rest of me tell!

As far as bones go, I have quite a bit of metal in my right ankle from the break I mentioned previously. A long plate, a lot of screws and maybe a pin or two. I still have copies of the xrays stashed somewhere, showing the whole thing. You can just faintly make out the Phillips heads on the screws.

I can't share my scars.
It would make me easier to identify after the murders start.


What?

What? What indeed. What? Your not serious,I pray.  

I say this because I have a brother in law (Leroy-who shot a guy with a 12 gauge-killed him) who is in prison for murder-and my step brother is (as yet uncaught) a serial killer. Its not something I am proud of. But it is a fact. I shouldnt even be talking about this-Dad and his wife wont even talk to me now because I had the idiocy to state it on Facebook when I was drunk...but it is true. Me and my brothers and my sister...and my Dad know it....but I advertisted it on Facebook...but my brothers stand by me....and so does my sister...but I succsedded in alienating Dad from me...again. Dam. But fact is-I love you guys-I feel like you are family. When Tara was dying-you were there. I can tell you guys anything. And I have. And I will. You love me-and I love you. I can talk to you. You dont judge me too harshly. I didnt ask for this life....Im just trying to understand why. And you guys help. More then you know.

Oh, s**t.
I'm so sorry.
It was just a morbid joke, I didn't want to offend anybody.
Especially not you.
I'm sorry, again.

Let's just say we're both sorry.
You're a good guy too!

When I was a little boy, I got lost at a museum on a family trip. I made my way to the front office to let them know I was lost, when I suddenly felt this sharp pain shooting down my left arm. It turns out, it was my father, dragging me away & cursing me out in his favorite drunken guttural tone.

I've been having pain in my left arm ever since.

When I was 21, I fell off my motorbike. I only remember hitting my head on the right side, so I'm not sure how my left shoulder got dinged up, but I've still got the scar from the road rash. And, of course, pain in my left arm.

Years of working in factories at a frenetic pace that athletes, bodybuilders & even ex marines couldn't handle, left me with many pulled muscles & worn out joint, particularly in my left arm.

Every time a doctor puts a blood pressure sleeve on me, all the bad memories come back, & the they tell me my blood pressure's way too high.

Last January, doctors told me I had a heart attack, but I'm pretty confident it was just a stomach bug. So Anyway, I'm told I need to worry about my heart now.

Nowadays, whenever I get any pain in my left arm, I just can't be 100% sure just what it might be.
