Did something you shoot cause that?

A combination of many many year's of shooting big bore weapons and ending in a car wreck where a guy in a stolen Volvo rear ended me at over 100 MPH on the Atlantic City Expressway. I was driveing a 1988 Dodge Diplomat unmarked Patrol Car that I was issued as an Internal Affairs Det. Sergeant. anyway the rear bumper was pushed up under the rearseat and all 4 door's were pinned shut. I had calcium deposits build up in the rotator socket from the dislocation during the accident and 4 year's later I had the shoulder rebuilt and some bone and calcium removed. I watched the guy impact with my car in the rear view mirror and I gripped the steering wheel as hard as I could. When he impacted with my vehicle I dislocated both shoulders, both elbow's and both wrist. I also ripped the steering wheel out of the dashboard and ended up smashing the rear window with my head when I was thrown into the back. Can you say concussion to what little brain matter that I had back then.
I hope this answers your question.

Sorry to hear that Bill...I've been very fortunate throughout my 51 year career as a human being. No broken bones or serious injuries...from the way you describe that you are fortunate to be having this conversation...
