After I got hit, I wasn't really sure what happened, I just know I was bleeding all over my face, and glass was all over my face and pants.  I stumbled out onto the sidewalk, tried to call 911, but I lost orientation.  I dropped my phone, sat down on the sidewalk and wasn't sure what was going on, except that blood was dripping all over my face and a mouthful of broken teeth, or so I thought.   I spit out everything in my mouth while I was sitting down only to find out that it wasn't my teeth, but a mouthful of glass.  As I kept spitting out the glass in my mouth, it was ripping my tongue and the insides of my mouth, only to cause more bleeding.  From the corner of my eye, the other lady who had hit me was calling someone (presumably 911) but I was just so out of it, I just sat there watching blood drip from my face onto the concrete.  People came out of the nearby building asking me if I was okay, but I couldn't talk for some reason.  When the paramedics came, they asked me what my name was and the date, and for the life of me, I could not remember and could not talk, so I did not say anything.  They threw me into the ambulance and sent me away to the hospital.  I regained orientation and real consciousness as to what happened at around 9:00 ish when I found myself in the emergency room with bandages on my face.  Blood was still dripping from my chin and my eyebrow because the doctor did not have time to stitch it up until about 3pm.  So for 6 hours, I was just sitting in my bed in the emergency room, watching other trauma patients roll in and out while I was there waiting for a doctor to stitch up my bloody chin and eye.  i had cuts all around my right side of my face, and lacerations on my chin and above my eye (needed stitches) (nothing life threatening though) I had  a fractured first rib and lung contusion.   At first, it didn't sound so bad, but I was in serious pain and here's why:

 "The first rib is rarely fractured because of its protected position behind the clavicle (collarbone). However, if it is broken serious damage can occur to the brachial plexus of nerves and the subclavian vessels."

"A force strong enough to cause contusion may cause fissuring of a portion of the lung, allowing air to escape into it. This internal air leak is known as a pneumatocele. If this air space fills with blood, a pulmonary hematoma results. These entities are not usually detectable as early as the contusion and may take a couple of days to visualize."

So I can barely breathe, because it freakin hurts when I breathe and laugh and cough, and anything to do with my lungs, which is basically everything.  Friend brought me an ipod video with a bunch of movies…all comedy, so I couldn't watch.  So I sat there watching sports and random shows that were on tv..and pretty much just reading magazines.  It felt kinda good not having anything on my mind though, and I was being taken care of by nurses.
