Skiing...Concussion.... care to expand on these.
Mid-January, 20 of us from our high school when skiing and snowboarding to Mt. Tremblant in Quebec, Canada. Two days of amazing skiing went by..until the third.. The weather conditions were extremely severe. It had rained earlier so there were a LOT of ice patches. There was so much fog that you could not see 5 feet in front of you..and lots of runs were closed.. I was going fast down a black hill because later it divides into two runs.. a green and blue.. I figured that I would go down the green since the weather wasnt that great. The beginning of the green hill is flat so that's why I was gaining up speed. 10 feet before entering the green run, I noticed that they had closed it off and it was chained and roped closed. I tried to turn a sharp right but I hit a massive patch of ice and I went flying out of control into a wooden post.. (according to my friend..I dont remember anything..) It was scary...I woke up to a paramedic talking to me saying "everything is going to be alright" I thought that I was dreaming for the first 10 minutes until I realized that it was real because I couldnt remember anything. Thank God that my friend was skiing behind me... He saw me wipe out into the wooden sign and he got ski patrol. I was unconscious for 1 minute but I had about a 10 minute memory loss. Going down the hill, they pulled me on a gurney from a snowmobile. Then I was rushed to the hospital. They took x-rays of my neck to ensure it was not broke and it wasnt...thankfully...And my goggles saved my eye.. I went head-first into the post. If i was not wearing goggles then I probably would have lost and eye and broken my nose. I got 4 stitches under my left eye. The cut was so close to my eye that the doctor stopped using stitches and just glued it shut. And thats how I got my concussion..
My lovely friends took pictures of me while I was in the hospital and posted them on facebook.. They're on my facebook page if you have me added as a friend..
