Replying to So yesterday i lost my vision
So the other day when i was snowboarding i decided not to wear a helmet while on a closed woods trail. i know it was dumb but it happened. so anyway i crushed a stump and smacked my head on ice pretty hard. I got up slowly and shook it off and kept riding. I had a slight headache for maybe 30 minutes, but nothing too serious. The rest of the day i was fine.
I woke up the next morning and went to school. as soon as i sat down in Spanish class my vision started to blur. There was a bright white blur directly in the focal point of my vision. I figured that that shit would pass but it only got worse. After about 30 minutes i couldn't even make out people's faces. Blindly i felt my way out of the class room and into the hall. i tried to call my mom but i couldn't see the numbers on the phone. By this point i was pretty fucking nervous. I felt / stumbled my way down to the nurses office. As soon as i walking into the door the nurse had me lay down. I couldn't see shit at this point. I told her what was going on and the first thing she asked me was if i had suffered any blows to the head. she told me i probably had a slightly detached retina and my vision might come back and it might not. Fuck. I didn't want to be a Helen Keller for the rest of my life. slowly after an hour or two my vision came back. The nurse told me i might have to get surgury which would be gay. and today i almost passed out at work. All of a sudden i felt mad blazed and unbalanced. so i might see a doctor tomorow. All this shit happened because i didn't wear my helmet for a few runs. Almost going blind really made me think about shit.
kind of pointless story but wear a helmet
