Hows this, 21st of January 2004. One of the coldest days of this Canadian winter. I'm working on an addition project on a Hospital of all places when all of a sudden smack! 2000lbs of solid Douglas Fir beams 14"x14"x45' come crashing down from the crane myself and youngest brother are using to unload a tractor trailer.
We each take a hit on the head,he buckles in half nose touching his toes fracturing 2 ribs,pulling out his back and just plain sore with the wind knocked out of him.
Me not so lucky. I didn't buckle and wound up with a broken neck at the 6th cervical vertebra.
So after 2 hours in traction 2 surgeries and a whole lot of hardware I face life as a C6 Quadriplegic.
At this point I go to rehab for 7 months, come home move into mom&dads house until the house my family and friends were building for us is complete.
A year later get married to my then girlfriend of 12 years,
get a couple dogs and 7 months ago become father to twins,my son Ethan and daughter Chloe.


Did I win for Biggest BooBoo!
