    Cut myself on oysters Christmas day(Sunday) needing stitches, back to hospital Tuesday & Wednesday for IV drip & redressing(4hrs each day). Wednesday night severe sweats/chills/headaches & vomiting. Thursday admitted to hospital for emergency IV & stitches removed. Home today but I still have at least another 2/3 days of daily hospital visits & a strict alcohol ban tonight with foot raised,will be a week at least before i can ride again. 20161225_134140.jpg 20161225_134115.jpg 20161230_191805-1.jpg 20161225_141656.jpg 20161228_201515.jpg

    Damn... nasty infection... gotta get on top of that mate...Did they leave any shell fragments in there??
    We should all go on a strict no Alcohol theme tonight in support...
    Nah just kidding... :)
    Hope it all heals quickly and with no more issues... rest up... these things can go bad in a real hurry.

    its always the ones you least expect, Oysters, sitting there day after day, planning, watching, waiting, determining a way to screw up your day even more, all because the are filter feeders.... frikkin filter feeds....

    looks terrible mate hope it has healed

    Unfortunately no it has been a nightmare & I havnt been able to wear a shoe since christmas, it was healing well the first 2 weeks but my inability to stay off my feet caused the skin to pull apart leaving me with a gaping hole that almost needed a skin graft, 2 weeks later & its getting better by the day. Missing life & needing money but as soon as I can get a shoe on the zxr is gonna cop it:neo: 20170126_203411.jpg
