    I fell onto a branch that I had trimmed off today....fell onto it straight on and right onto the butt end of it. Thought for sure I was going to have a puncture in my chest. It happened in almost the same exact spot as a previous puncture wound (decades ago) that just about did me in....:doh: Lucky my arms were long enough to reach the ground and stop my fall. The bruise is right on top of the old scar.

    If it had been a thorn, there would have been no stopping it.

    I think somebody said earlier that we all have things happen from time to time. This one here could have been very serious. Sounds like you were very lucky. I seriusly dont onow how more of us aren't hurt anymre than we are.

    Speaking of thorns, I got one in the eye many moons ago. That definitely was not fun and from time to time that still bothers me.
