Four years ago today, I suffered my one and only (so far!) upper body injury when I separated my shoulder playing hockey.
Even now, if I sleep too long on my left side, I feel the pain. I've accepted long ago that this is perma-pain, and I just live with it. When I feel the dull ache setting in, I just switch sides and it subsides. I suppose there are worse pains to live with...
Following the injury, the pain was so intense I was popping percocets like candy. That made for a very interesting visit to Chuck E. Cheese for my son's 7th birthday.
Memories...
