I too was privvy to this when I had a car crash in Italy, I was unable to get out of the driver's door so slid over to the passenger's side. Opened the door, stepped out and promptly fell over ~ the broken ankle and ribs just weren't going to have it it seemed. Amazing how much Italian you can muster at these times, far more than I realised I knew....I was taken to the Italian hospital but insisted on being taken to the American hospital (which is where the British Forces came under). Here I met 'Beavis and Butthead' two hilarious night staff who were trying to tackle the plaster of paris at midnight with more decorating the walls and ceilings than on my leg...Why is it when you have broken ribs someone makes you laugh!! Elsabe the hostage situation must have been an experience to behold. Blessings x A wonderful insight into pain and the courage to deal with it.
