- About My Carbon Monoxide Experience:
- I was a senior in high schoool in 1978-1979. i was 18 yres old. i spent the night at my brothers house with his wife. we never woke up the next morning . my parents found us all in bed unconscious.it was in dec.9 th or 10th 1978. my brothers wife came to that night in the hospital and my brother came to the next mornig. i was in a coma for three days before i woke up. i lost over half of my hearing in both ears and there was something wrong with my right leg.i walked with a drag and when i was released to go home my ankle swelled up after visiting my grandparents,i could not wear my favorite dress shoes because my foot would swell. i couldn't sit with my legs tucked under me .my foot would swell.the doctors just said not to do those things they never could say why my foot did that and it still does it.my hearing has gotten worse but thats due to regular hearing loss like everybody gets as they get older.not good for me since i already had about 65% loss now its more like 75% -80 %.i've been depressed ,i would say ever since my accidenti never had any threapy or counsiling to help me
