Day 13...unlucky day for me... With a huge test!

Went to Toronto to a family get together today.... Was feeling great so me n hubby was throwing a baseball around playing catch.... Was doing great than somehow missed the ball and it smacked me right in the mouth blood everywhere..... Had to go to hospital..... Had to get 4 stitches in my mouth and 4 on my outter lip too..., the pain was horrible... And the freezing is coming out so it's ten times worse.... What did I ask him to give me for pain ... Nothing.... Stopped at Walmart picked up Advil ... Yayy me!!! I had to buy straws too cause can't drink otherwise lol but u know what's it was a good excuse to pop a few of the other.... But I didn't!!!! Was this my higher power testing me.... Was it my punishment.... I don't know.... But I am still feeling great ( except for the stitches) lol and going on! Omg what a day!

I went threw a knee surgery and took Advil afterwards . I feel you trust me ! Well done . You know people one of my biggest fears is getting in an accident and dealing with severe pain . I'm sure I am not alone with that ..

I think accidents happen as we start to go out and do things once the wd's are over.  You did great by turning down those pills.  The biggest discovery was finding out that the OTC meds actually worked!!  Hope you are feeling better~

Great job jibi !!   It amazes me how many people get hurt in bizarre accidents around the 10-20 day mark. It makes me wonder if the brain is not just making an accident happen to get some pills. Awesome job on not caving !!
