2. When I was weedeating the yard a few days ago I was hit in the eye

Wed Oct 8, 2014, 10:30 PM

Oct 2014

by something that I thought flew off the weedeater line but now I'm not so sure it wasn't ebola that hit me in the eye. If it would have been a piece of dirt or something like that it would have already come out but this ebola thing is still in there and its bugging me to no end. HELP!
