I knew about your dad, but didn't know about you getting hurt. You were one lucky guy to get back home ok.Marilynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17538319648874070949noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8454450022062208119.post-66641300984515747092011-04-17T10:48:44.170-05:002011-04-17T10:48:44.170-05:00Certainly not a very good summer for the Weidler f...Certainly not a very good summer for the Weidler family. Your story brings life to the earlier comments of Janis Hendrickson and Richard Holstad - why do some survive and others do not? Thanks for sharing this.<br />In '63 I foolishly stuck my hand in a corn chopper and nearly lost all my fingers. Then I got on the tractor to drive it home, passed out and fell off the tractor. I survived because it was an Allis-Chalmers with an off-set seat, so I fell away from the equipment I was pulling. A little over a year later my dad lost his arm in that same chopper. This past week Dad had a stent installed and he's still going strong, but it was kind of funny when doctors came in wanting to shake his hand, not knowing there's nothing under the sheets. One nurse walked through her checklist of questions, then announced she needed to put in an IV, and which arm did he prefer, right or left? We all had a good laugh. Some survive.Wyrdsmythe62https://www.blogger.com/profile/06647985452568489561noreply@blogger.com
