You know, my grandfather once fell out of a tree, broke multiple vertebrae, multiple ribs, an arm, a punctured lung and then drove himself over 150 miles home. Why home instead of the nearest hospital? Didn't want my grandmother to worry when she got a call from a hospital, and didn't want her to have to drive as far.
If I had shaken my grandfather's ladder, he likely would have gotten up and whacked me with a stick until I drove him home lol.
That's not bullshit, he actually did that. Damn near died because he waited so long to get help.
It was a different time people were a lot harder.
Amen to that
