had a bone infection in my foot, had to be awake while they amputated my big toe and the ball of my foot in case a bigger decission had to be made. they need to ask permission to take off the foot. lucky enough they bored in far enough through the infection to good bone.

Bone infections are not to be taken lightly!

Make a good back rest anyway Mark. You'll probably be glad to have it along after a while

Yep.


Every single year there are guys who will get their hands caught in corn pickers, get hung up in a PTO etc...


WTF were you doing sticking your hand in there with the damn thing running anyway??
