I know I've had at least one concussion, probably more. I remember being told I had to stay awake for 12 to 24 hours. Of course my family wanted to be on the safe side so 24 hours it was. During the entire time all I wanted to do was get some Z's. I was out like a light once the 24 hour period was up.
As you know I'm an Isles fan & our teams are probably going to play some very shall we say interesting games next year. However I hope Sid recovers 100%. I want to see him play too. Even if he is an Islanders Killer.
UGH. Was this concussion a while ago? Because that "no sleep for X hours" is complete bull now. The BEST thing to do is to let them sleep. The reason they said it was because they don't want someone with a brain bleed to go to sleep and not wake up, but it's actually more detrimental to keep a hurting brain awake and not let it rest.
Mrs. Jared: "Why are you on that stupid message board all the time?"
Jared: "You see, sweetie, Sports SportsHoopla is where I go to get good, solid hockey conversation. Since most of my friends are moronic Steeler's fans who don't understand or like hockey, SH Hockey board is like an oasis of knowledge in the desert of ignorance that is our life."
Mrs. Jared: "Interesting. Do you have an example?"
Jared: "Sure, let me show you the Pens/Bolts thread on the board. See right here where we are discussing... wait... um.... that's pictures of vomiting smiley faces."
Mrs. Jared: "You are all idiots."
You should have found some really good pages to show her. The Vezina thread would have been a good choice.
Good call. Of course there's also a pretty good chance I was just kidding and made the whole story up.
Our computer isn't in the kitchen or laundry room, therefore Mrs. Jared never gets to use it. I KID!!!! I KID!!!!
MAKE ME A SANDWICH...MAN!
Hey, no shame in a man cooking. I mean, my father only did about 10% of the cooking (grilling and stir fry were what he did), so obviously I'm used to a woman cooking, but I'll take a cooking husband any day of the week! As long as he likes hockey too.
