"Survivor"
Friday 'evening at 19:45, going to friend's house for a surprise dinner for my roommate who leaves us best beaches to go to Germany, I had a minor motorcycle accident.
The clash is not 'was, fortunately, large-scale, and so' I'm here I can write with my hands and sitting at a table and not lying in a bed.
I was lucky.
have fallen, 'but I did not tipped over the car and did not end up thrown in yards and yards away ... However, the contact with the ground 'was close, hard, cold, sudden, my chin, my lips, my finger, my whole body back and thank you.
For the first time and I 'happened to be helped by people in the street, they crowded around me in many, fast, immediate, not I feel almost that he was not even a minute on the road. They asked me how I was looking the best they could to make sure of my condition, I was advised to sit still and were concerned at my every move, scared. Probably I was a bit 'impression, I had a cut inside lip did you lose that much blood from his mouth.
Not a pretty sight ... no no no.
But in fact, 'I immediately could see that was still moving everything from hands to feet. Then the teeth were still in place and also moved well back.
Then I calmed down, and I tried to address the situation in a rational way, even though I've never had reason to lose control, except perhaps in time of flight in which, although in a few seconds, a thousand thoughts run to the head. After a few minutes and
'the ambulance arrived.
It took matters in hand, they started to tell me not to move and so on. But then he 'had trouble' to move and put on a stretcher, well, believe me, I have never felt so 'unstable. But anyhow ': I did not fall. So even if not extremely stable was certainly stable enough:)
And then the streets of Pisa by ambulance. I felt a bit 'like in the movies, with pulp in those scenes where we see firsthand the roof of the ambulance and you can hear the voices of nurses and doctors who speak near you (Ah, but not' like in the movies where about you, but my talking of cabbages them ... except for one who was worried about me and continued to hold my head up)
Then I have downloaded in the emergency room. Li 'quick investigation after they realized that was not life threatening, and I parked on the one hand waiting. Two nurses have been taken care of me, I put the throttle in his arm and then gave me a hand to check that my camera was still alive (It '! I had a bag on my side to Upon impact with up to three lenses, and everything and 'Saved! as well as the iphone!). After a moment I have also found a place on the stretcher a little 'less in the middle of the hustle and bustle of the people. After a 45 min
pero ' I have left due to shift change (
So I started looking around.
to observe people.
To hear the voices.
It 's been so long'
Before a woman who witnessed a man near the east I do not speak Italian, we offered to give me a piece of wet cloth to wipe my face with blood.
They are nice people everywhere:)
Time passed, my neighbor and stretcher 'and changed and' received a girl, she fell from the scooter (moped) and so ... 'I had someone to chat.
Finally at one point and 'my moment arrived.
I have taken and taken to a room, when something was about to happen .... Stop! changing and so 'parked again. Skip
a little 'time, now I no longer had' no one to talk, except that at one point the police arrive to take my statement for the record, and at one point another room and finally free I finish in front of a doctor! finally.
Now they are ': the doctor looks at me a bit', check my status, I squeeze the belly, buttons and controls the back legs, then checks the neck and takes my collar and eventually sent me to do x-rays and ultrasound, while the nurses I have shaved his beard on his chin, so that 'I am ready to be sewn. Other
waiting, first out X-ray room, then out of the U.S. ... and did this again parked
I look around again, and I see new people, but 'returned the gentleman of the East, I see in the distance ...
By now I feel better, start to move a bit 'on the stretcher ... now the supine position and' very uncomfortable. Skip
as 'half an hour but maybe more' and finally back to the doctor tells me that the tests are fine:) nothing broken and no internal veramento, just have to wait for an open room and I sew and let me go.
Then a friend finally managed to break through the blocks and enter the emergency room, is there 'and see me: I am safe, and I see him' lightened by a weight. I'm happy for him and I am also happy that friends have come to check my status even though I told him not to worry and that I would feel I did then. Leave me alone when the nurses come to take for sutures. And now 'almost done. Two points here, the three 'and is' made. I am giving new
my clothes, make me stand up and deliver my report, x-rays ... the doctor gives me the advice to get over and I start leaving.
I turn and I see the girl who was next to me waiting. She is not 'yet final, it was not bad enough ... I wish you good luck and go out.
are
0:48 's just more' time to rest and wait to wake up the next day, sore but still in one piece.
Thanks to everyone who came in first aid, and that gave me a hand with the bike, and feel an apology to those who have been ruined an evening of celebration ...
