Crushed my big toe - RC-Monster Forums

Well im pissed !

we were moving some ramps around at my buddy's skatepark (i designed all the ramps and built most of them) and somehow we dropped the side of the ramp i was on and i tryed to moved my foot but the corner caught dead center of my right big toe (ramp weighs about 400-450 pounds and it was about 2 feet off the ground) so now my toe is about twice the size of the other. I havent been able to sleep for more than an hour at a time. I cant walk or even get out of this damn chair or the blood will rush to it (foot is elevated above my head ATM) I missed my scheduled check ride the other day due conflict of scheduling with the aircraft. Now i cant even fly for atleast 6 weeks. I cant even walk to class today and missed two test

not happy about it as the makeup test always have extra crap

im bummed i cant even comfortably sit down at my bench and work on my stuff.... i was flying my MSR around in the room and then it died while i was flying it in the kitchen (watching it through doorway from my chair) so now i gotta wait for the old lady to get outta class and fix me lunch and bring me my chopper

i guess there are pluses but she put my pills in the kitchen

i go back to the doctor today at 3pm for xrays they are unsure right now but i didnt have my insurance info last night so i was kinda SOL so i got an appointment today at 3pm it definetly not good, i keep getting sharp pain through the middle of foot and they hurt bad enough that i need to grab the arms of the chair and hold on....

Ehhh, Dude that sucks. Sorry to hear.
I'm curious to see the toe myself in a non gay way.
Hope no complications and it heals quickly.
