Yesterday I was about to replace the springs on my garage door. It's
one of the old (35 yrs), very heavy wooden doors. We had it supported
with a 2x4, but the support slipped. The door came crashing down, hit
my right shoulder, spun me around and wedged my head between the garage
door and the side of the garage. When my neighbor opened the door, I
fell to the floor unconsious.
Except for soreness, I feel pretty good, but I have a lot of swelling,
and stitches in my head. The doctor says I have a mild concussion, but
that I'm fortunate to even be alive.
Can anybody give me a good web site that explains just what a concussion
is for a non-medical person?
Thanks,
Dan
