Hey everyone. Last Wednesday (Nov. 24th) I was playing hockey (not uni
hockey, ice hockey)and i hit someone who was a lot bigger than me.
neither of us fell, but unfortunately, I got a big pain in my rib area.
I continued to play two more shifts, and the period was over at which
point i decided the pain was too much and i took off my equipment and
went to the hospital. I was eventually informed that i had mono and that
made my spleen a lot larger than it should be and thats what led to the
rupture that occurred when i hit the guy. i was just let out of the
hospital today, but im not allowed to do anything active for 3 months.
unfortunately that means unicycling too. so this really sucks, but for
every street rider out there, make up new tricks and go bigger so i have
something to make up for when im back. i should be ok to ride for TOque
2005. thought id tell everyone.
later, Kevin
