My 2nd worst concussion happened when I was 4-years old. I was riding a bike down a steep hill on a city street my grandparents lived on, and I wiped out bad. The last thing I remember was neither my hands nor my feet being on the bike and the front wheel wobbling very rapidly. I was told when I flew and hit the street and skidded, my head hit a manhole cover. A nice lady lifted my bloody body off the street, and my parents were called. The next thing I remember is I woke up about 90-minutes later. I was on a hospital gurney, naked, and a nurse was putting a clean pair of underwear on me. Nothing traumatic about that! I was knocked out for 90-minutes. During that time, the hospital x-rayed nearly my entire body. Shockingly, I had no fractures. However, I was basically skinned alive by the wipeout. The strangest thing from all of that was my nose had a rip in the side that they never bothered to sew up. It ended up healing just fine. I was bed-ridden for 3-weeks from the accident. Less than a year later, I nearly had my eye torn out of my head by a stone from a lawn mower. I spent 2-weeks in the hospital from that, and it took a good year for my vision to come back in that eye, though things always looked darker through that eye since the accident. The hill that ate me ended up getting chopped down quite a bit about a decade after my spill. It was deemed hazardous to traffic, and probably to anything else living and otherwise as well.
