Things you survived, but probably shouldn't have

The last one a uti
I had no symptoms at all. ( for a uti)
I had been spraying and got some chemicals on me. Being stupid I got through and then went an cleand off.
So when symptoms of a infection showed up.
Chills , shaking and sweats I did not pay it attention.
It went septic and a long stay in icu getting all kinds of antibiotics. Had a nurse tell me if I would have waited one more day I probably would not have went back home.
That day a buddy checked in on me called my wife and told her I needed to go to the hospital no matter what I said.
He was right I was not capible of makeing good dessisions at the time.
Him just comeing by and having her take me in saved my life.

That one scared me it snuck up and got me out of the blue

When I was a kid working at a horse farm I turned loose a mare not realizing the dominant mare was coming up behind me to harass her. The one I turned loose immediately spun around and donkey kicked both hind legs, full extension, at the approaching mare with me in between. Her hooves went on either side of my head, each brushing my ears, both directions. By the grace of God I was not decapitated.

This past July, I was doing my usually uneventful morning drive to work. The highway that I was on has a 65mph speed limit and is three lanes wide on each side with a cable divider in the grass median.

I had several vehicles around me and was leading the pack. All of a sudden a freak rainstorm hits, the bottom falls out. I feel the back of my truck starting to feel loose, then start spinning. I start to get some control and point the truck towards the median to separate myself from surrounding traffic. It got a little blurry after that, it felt like I had gone upside down, flipped, rolled, whatever. I remember landing hard and heading towards the cables, truck stopped about three inches short of the cables.

All four curtain airbags had blown and I had blood all over my shirt. I get my witts about me and get out, no body damage.

The blood was from the damned curtain airbag....

The truck afterwards...

Turns out when the shop reset the computer after the airbags were replaced I had gone upside down, landed perfectly on four wheels. I told the people at the shop that there's a word for that... SKILLS!
They had a good laugh but truth be told the first thing I put my hand on when the incident had ended was this...

A little Jesus figure that my deer processor gave me last season, I kept it in my center console up until the accident. It goes with me in my pocket every day since!!!
