Katie, wank

It may relax you to sleep, it may give you strength to keep going. Whichever/whatever it wont hurt and will definately feel good in the process

She might need a Magic Penis.... joke for your entertainment.


A businessman was preparing to go on a long business trip, so he thought he'd buy his wife something to keep her occupied.

He went to a sex shop and explained his situation. The man there said, ' Well, I don't know that I have anything that will keep her occupied
for so many weeks, except... the Magic Penis!'

The husband said, 'The what'?

The man repeated, 'The Magic Penis,' and pulled out what seemed to be an ordinary dildo.

The husband laughed, and said, 'It looks like a dildo!'
The man then pointed to the door and said, ' Magic Penis, door!'

The penis rose out of its box, darted over to the door and started pounding away at the keyhole. The whole door shook wildly
with vibrations, so much so, that a crack began to form down the middle.


Then the man said, 'Magic Penis, return to box!' and the penis stopped and returned to the box.
The husband bought it and took it home to his wife.


After the husband had been gone a few days, the wife remembered the Magic Penis. She undressed, opened the box and said
'Magic Penis, my vagina.'
The penis shot to her crotch. It was absolutely incredible. After three mind shattering orgasms, she became very exhausted and decided she'd had enough. She tried to pull it out, but it was stuck.

Her husband had neglected to tell her how to turn it off so she put her clothes on, got in her car and started for the closest hospital.
On the way, another incredibly intense orgasm made her swerve all over the road. A Police Officer saw this and immediately pulled her over.

He asked for her license, and then asked how much she'd had to drink.
Gasping and twitching, the woman said, 'I haven't had anything to drink officer. You see, I've got this Magic Penis stuck in my crotch and it won't stop screwing me.'

The officer looked at her for a second, shook his head and replied,'Yeah right... Magic Penis, my arse...!!!!!!!!!!'


The rest, as they say, is history...

^^ haha not half bad hinny.

On a more serious note, with all this hangman and vertebrae I remembered the HANS devices installed in race cars. Seems that MX and Enduro guys have taken to Motorcycle neck braces in a fairly big way. Stuff like the Leatt Braces & EVS RC Evo http://www.webbikeworld.com/r4/leatt-brace/

Cant say I've ever seen a street rider in one and they sound like a bit of a hassle, but then again some things caught my attention:

"Speak to any paramedic or firefighter and they’ll all tell you the same. First on scene at a motorcycle accident, you must suspect C-spine injury. If the victim is unconscious you take it as read that the C-spine, and the spine in general, is injured"

"There’s a medical rhyme: “C one, two, three, four, five: keeps the diaphragm alive"

"The tests used standard protocols for restraint systems developed by various countries, and showed that the Leatt Brace (Moto GPX model) reduced flexion from 90 degrees with no brace to 60 degrees with and extension from 85 degrees with no brace to 50 degrees with."

Pitty it won't fit when using leathers with humps, or let you really get into a full race tuck by the sound of it, might restrict some head motion (not as bad as you might think though) - and cost a bomb.. Personal choices and intended uses I guess

*edit*
Looks like Leatt has a roadrace specific brace the "STX" as of this year http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8u0p36mSI00

I have a leatt for the dirt bike Fruitloops. Just went and tried it on the SV1000 with my Ixon jacket and Shark Rsr2 road bike helmet on! Haven't taken it for a ride but it would work quite well! leaves a bit of a hole around the neck so a neck warmer would be necessary. Restricts a fraction but not to bad at all. With my neck damage from the 06 accident it might seriously be worth a go at a track day?? Not sure how they'd go with the head position on a CBR or R1 but it'd work on every other bike I reckon (prob on those as well).

I had an evs I don't think that would be a goer but the leatt....Mmmm food for thought???

I looked at getting a neck brace when I started riding last year but there weren't any road braces available at the time. I'll probably get an STX road when they finally go on sale.

Hey Katiepie.

I somehow missed this post-fest. I heard your story on the news but I had no idea it was you until now!

Glad you got some sleep. That is about the single most important thing you need right now to recover. Sleep and lots of it. I was reading a book from a neurologist who also had brain trauma saying the best thing she did was sleep continuously. This doctor swears it was why she recovered so well against all odds. That and listening to what her body wanted to do. I saw someone else mentioned that too.

As to pain control, the docs should have you on a nerve specific painkiller if you are experiencing nerve issues. They are quite different from standard painkillers. Have some side-effects though. But when my mother was having nerve pain, these were the only type of pain relief that worked.

Also you may be aware that women are not as responsive to morphine or other opiate based drugs as compared to men? And that lack of sleep makes pain more painful?

So a pain clinic is a good idea. You might well need to try out a few different drugs to get the best result.

Also agree with the low blood sugar/dehydration suggestion. I have made the weirdest decisions at times after those long shifts where eating/drinking was not possible. I've even made a dumb mistake, chastised myself for it, and then done the same dumb thing right after! (If you've seen Sky Sport go to black twice one early morning that was probably me!)

So who knows why the accident happened? It's not important now. You may never remember so don't worry about it. It is not in your control. My brother was run over when he was about 18yrs old. He's 40yrs old now and still can't remember what happened. And he did not suffer anywhere near your injuries.

My father spent several weeks in a halo after a spinal fusion. I don't remember him having too much trouble sleeping...but that was probably all the beer.... Not recommended incidentally!

But anyway, I'm rambling.

So, take it easy. Be grumpy when you want, happy when you want, sleep when you want, and ask for as much help as you need!

[MadDuck]

Happy Birthday Katie. Still a long way to go but thank you for sharing your path to healing with us.

Would bring you cake but its just a bit far.

Happy birthday from the Bergs.
Interesting about people looking into neck-braces. Since my crash I have been wearing a Alpinestars collar type neck-brace and find it very good.
It doesn't restrict neck movement and with a naked bike it actually supports my helmet against the wind. I will continue to wear it even after final sign off from the surgeon.

[blackdog]

should have read this thread before firing up a new one. (i did search)

happy birthday KP.

[Hinny]

Oh no! I missed your birthday.
Hope it was better than the day before.
Just had an image of you, in your birthday suit with a halo . . . Rather Angelic.
I am in Taupo getting in some party training so your proxy experience of the Tahora rally will be especially good. . . 'cos it's your birthday.

Sleep well.

[Hinny]

Hey Katie, How is the pain relief going?
The less injured you are it seems the more pain you get so I guess in someway you should feel better knowing you are healing.
I don't believe you need to feel the pain though.
I hope you have it sorted.
Sweeet dreams.

Hi Katiepie,

Dont know you at all but stumbled on your story,

I have been fortunate enough over a long race career to avoid the sort of injuries you have sustained (thankfully cause I dont think Id deal with them as well as you have),

However I did do some junior training with a young rider at Manfeild prior to the Shell two wheeler in 1989 to help him be more competitive come raceday,Sadly he crashed during the prelim race(guess I didnt teach him too well huh?)and was run over by a fellow competitor fracturing C5 and C6 vertebrae and leaving him what they termed "Tits down paralysed"(would have excited me much more had he been a she,But I digress),I guess in that respect you have been spared some,Although the outcome would have been better if there were no crash at all,Anyhow,Havent seen Terry for about 3 years as Ive moved out of the Manawatu but he has progressed well and lives a relatively normal life now(Apart from the wheels stuck too his butt LOL).He was only able too acheive this through the support and love he recieved from family and freinds,It wasnt easy for him,But he did eventually get there.

I guess what Im saying here is sit back and enjoy the help and love being afforded you by the kind folks that have offered.

GOOD LUCK and happy healing,
Billy
