12. The falling computer hit me in several places.

The shin, the ankle, the foot. The bruising pattern is very weird. All around the foot above the sole. All around the whole damned foot, in a ring. And also on one toe. And then swelling but no bruising on the ankle and on the shin. So I guess different parts of the machine hit different parts of me.

This is the foot that required partial resection (at the area where one might have a bunion) after it became infected with a rare pathogen associated with GOATS two years ago. I had a blister on that area, and stepped in a mud puddle in the park next door, and subsequently it was infected with this staph caprae, associated with goats. After that surgery healed, it became my GOOD foot when my other foot became infected with a different bacteria and cellulitis three months ago.

Now this. LOL. What a pain.
