Dude. You just took things to a whole other level.
Glad you managed to stick around. Stories like that really put things into perspective. This thread was inspired by a guy that I work with who served over seas. He told me about how he got shot in Iraq, how he got blown up MULTIPLE times, and how he was missing his testicles, tail bone, and how his legs have all sorts of pins in them and his wrist had to be reconstructed. All I could come back with was "Pollen makes my nose run alot".
Stories like his and yours make average people's complaints seem trivial (which they are). Thanks for sharing your experiences, alekth!

Well, as for me, not only I still have my testicles, I also don't have any allergies.
I really don't remember anything from being sick as a baby obviously, but as for the car crash (which was when I was 17, though I still don't remember anything concerning it and the previous couple of days), it took me a couple of years to be able to sit next to the driver and feel comfortable in a car again. Never got a driver's license after that.... though lately I've been considering going for it.

I think you should go for it. Don't let a tragedy stop you from living life to the fullest. It's entirely your decision, though. I'm just an imaginary guy from the internet!
