Couldn't open the link AP but i do remember reading something about an accident with a home built helicopter i think .

Anyway AP you are a very lucky man just like Aus Kiwi said , indeed your are blessed man and your time was not up yet .

Maybe a lesson to be learned by everyone here i guess.

Good luck AP and hope everything is going really well for you .

Cheers Pat.

We all can only do what we can do. No more no less. In pain or ecstasy. Been to the other side, didn't like it, not my time, as you Paul.

I was up an 10.5m power pole that fell to the ground . It was the electrical shocks that gave me grief . Plus the system saying it was my fault . It gets to you mentally when you where doing the right thing for the community!! AP your family loves you ( why lucky man) and depend on you MORE than you realise., Find aches and pains are best treated with light exercise. If I rest too much its way worse . Another thing !! A HOBBY !! Woman dont often realise this . Men need a hobby to keep there mind on things . Ok when younger when your running around the bedroom . Could be fixing a push bike ?

That would have not been nice AK. Sorting van, nearly done, and the latest hobby of drones that I am now playing with keep the grey matter roaming around AK.

Hi Paul

I can feel just a small part of what you are going through

I was involved in an industrial accident, through no fault of my own, when a plant exploded

Received burns to 40% of my body, just on ten years ago, October 2008

We can get flashbacks, at any place, and any time, and sometimes, it will get us down

As Aussie Kiwi has already said, our families appreciate us, for who we are, and sometimes we own it to them, to keep our chin up

Hope to meet you one day, and say hello

Dear Aussie Paul

I can't begin to imagine what you've been through. It must have been agony, both physically and mentally. Such a horrific accident would change a persons life forever so it's no wonder that you are still deeply affected.

Thankfully you have family to support you so hold on to them and don't let that black dog win.

With all the very best thoughts

Anne
