Derrick's "Accident"

Remembering Derrick's Treadmill Accident
of 2 Years Ago!

To priceless not to include in the blog! Derrick and his friends, in their infinite wisdom, decided to go to the Fitness Center and work out. Well... some genius in the group decided to dare Derrick to jump on the treadmill while it was on ~ GOING 12 MILES PER HOUR!!
~
I don't have to tell you what happened next.... Of course, Derrick took the dare and the treadmill threw him off and his legs skidded across the treadmill leaving lots of skin and he hit the wall behind the treadmill. All in all ... Not one of Derrick's smartest moves!
~
He had no skin left on his knees or ankles and what was left was oozing! It was disgusting and very painful! We had to have Dawn in PT at the hospital help us with wound care. It was a very LONG process and he now has the scars to prove it.
~
I don't think he will EVER live that one down!
