Back to square 1 after my accident recently

Well, I sit here in the ICU on my 8th day here. I wrecked my dirt bike and suffered 6 fractured ribs, collapsed lung, liver laceration, kidney trauma, fractured scapula and other bumps and bruises. Worst pain of my life. I’ll be down and out for awhile, I had 7 titanium brackets put on my ribs to help fix them. Back to the basics, like I think I’ll start with walking and stretching , lol. Fml
Very sorry to hear about your accident bro. Stay strong and i wish you a very successful and speedy recovery.
I realize it probably won't be speedy but let's hope so.

Thanks, so far I can’t complain. I’m back in the gym training light, my lung is good again and I can get the plastic ball, suck in tube thingy, maxed out.

ribs healing faster since they were plated back together, fucking liver tear hurts like a bitch though!! Top rt abdominal area always hurting, I thought it was an ab muscle but it’s my liver from the grade 4 tear. Probably my handlebars did this. Scapula fracture not that bad, still full rom with my rt arm and I was actually able to train delts, traps and back with it, obviously light weights.

Thanks to the gym over the years I’m still alive, surgeons said if I didn’t have the muscle mass to protect me I might not be here. Hail to the iron, I’m coming back!!!
 
Also, nothing but TRT for probably the next 6 months since the liver tear and kidney injury, I’m just thankful I still have all my organs
 
I have learned, that two people can get the same excitment/adrenaline rush. One can have sensory overload from something like the sunset, while another person it takes skydiving to get that same fixation, as it did for the other to just watch the sunset.

each person experiences the same feeling, just from different external sources.
I agree that for us people, the sources of emotions are very different. This is probably the whole meaning of life, in the difference in the perception and knowledge of life
 
overcoming fear is living to me. Dealing with fear is getting stronger to me. The most alive I've ever felt was repelling down a gorge for the first time. The first time I had ever repelled there were too may people on "the beginner wall" so my friend asked me if I wanted to work in on a line with someone or go do our own thing. When I said "do our own thing" I had no idea what I was in for. That was frightening but I wanted to do it again!

The main thing in my opinion is that fear does not stop and does not frighten. And it makes you act and go forward. I think fear in this case is not an enemy, but an ally.
