I've worked with pain that would make most grown men at least whimper,like the night I was workin on a drilling rig and dislocated my right shoulder..3 times and I had to pop it back in and make one-handed connections,with my left hand..I finished the tower out and then went to the hospital. The doctor didn't believe that I had dislocated my shoulder and popped it back in 3 times,because I wasn't sittin around whimpering or crying from the pain. In that instance,I reckon that I should have expressed my pain better,but I figured the doc would take my word about it,instead,he thought I was just making up a story to git drugs for pain.

I would never cry in public,and I rarely cry,I have shed some tears at a few funerals,but I was doing my dangdest not to !

Have a good one ...
Wow torog thats a good story, soldiering on through the pain.

Some pain is physical, but the worst is mental pain.
