illness: I used to get pneumonia every winter. Haven't had it in about 10 years. injury: I guess it was falling against the bbq and slicing my ear half off when I was 8. They stitched the skin back together, but cartilage doesn't heal so it looks interesting.
Shot myself in the hand with a nailgun. 16 penny nail, went in between my thumb and index finger and crossways all the way in. The nurse asked me to take off my glove, I told her I couldn't because it was nailed to my hand. Got extremely lucky, it missed everything in my hand of any importance bit it did crack one bone. I do have the X_RAY
