Answered prayer, thank you Lord!!! 

Nice to hear you're back home now.  Just take it easy and heal up.

dang man, here’s hoping you make a full recovery

Glad to see you here Clayton! I'm glad you are progressing!

Any guy who took on an F150 and is still kicking, is a pretty tough guy. Get better soon.

And stubborn lol. I guess I kept trying to rip out my lung tube that was keeping me alive and all the hoses taped to me along with a catheter I almost ripped it all out or off but it took a bunch of nurses to hold me down I guess. I don’t remember any of it other than once I was up trying to lose the neck brace. But yeah took a 99 F150 on the side of 390s @50mph which sent me 60yards down the road. 

Welcome back, dude. Glad to hear you're on recovery road.

 

May it be a speedy journey.

good to hear you are getting better. hopefully recovery will be speedy.

@clayton86, thanks for sharing your story and we’re all glad you’re on the road to a full recovery. The fish will be there waiting for you to take them on, and I look forward to those photos. Godspeed 

Glad to hear your getting better ! Praying for a full recovery. 

So glad to hear that you are doing better now. We were all very concerned for you. Keep us updated on your progress and hopefully you can be back out on the water after ice out.

Thats my goal i think I’ll be good to go my recovery so fars been ahead of schedule other than walking they want me to keep weight off my legs/hips/pelvis while all the plates and screws are setting in my pelvis. Supposed to go January 22nd to see when I can try walking and being more active. 

Awesome to see you back on here and hear how much better you're doing. You have a lot of therapy ahead of you but my money is on you being back in the kayak this season. 

Awesome...keep getting better.  Remember my ol long stay in a hospital.  I ripped out the ol IV's twice....kinda messy.

Yeah I guess I ripped mine out also along with the tube going into my lungs. Apparently I tried ripping out the catheter also but didn’t get to but almost lol glad they stopped that one. I was fighting everything they had me hooked up to they had to pin me down with 5 people and then strap me to the bed. All kinds of stubborn when trying to get healed up.

I can totally see you being a pain, lol.

I go to rehab twice a week currently but had my last speech therapy today my memory and brain functions are all back and good to go. I’ve got 1 more occupational therapy left to get test to see if I can drive again since I’ve passed all the other tests with flying colors she cut my last 3 appointments of the schedule. I’m just waiting on getting cleared to walk again on the 22nd and I can start physical therapy more than what they have me doing at home. Hopefully won’t be much longer that I’m out of everything.

I understand....just thinking about getting an IV even chills me to the bone. I HATE needles.....and guess what????  Since I had the pancreatitis I am now diabetic 

sadness.......anyway.....be strong and get well

I'm glad you're on the mend. Be patient with your progress. I wish you all the best Clayton. 

Thank G_d you have recovered! Someone was watching over you. As someone who has had a near death experience I can say it changes your perspective on things. My short term memory still all these years later is not perfect bit I am blessed to be alive. We all have to appreciate today as tomorrow is not guaranteed. Prayers for you and yours! 

I hope things continue to progress for you Clayton !! 

Just got X-rays and word from the doctor today that bolted me back together that I’m good to go for walking. Now to start small and rebuild my legs to put up with some of the conditions that and my lungs could probably use some work to after pneumonia and the one being deflated in the wreck.

After what you've been through, this is good news. One thing at a time

and you'll be back in no time. Stay strong.
