OUCH!!! THAT'S GOTTA HURT!!! |
His doctors pronounced him "the luckiest guy ever"
and Patrick Lawler, 23, isn't about to disagree.
The construction worker was building a house
in Colorado when his nail gun backfired,driving
a 4-in. nail through the roof of his mouth and
into his skull. Amazingly, Lawler did'nt realize
anything was amiss until six days later when he
went to a dentist with what he thought was a
nagging toothache. It took surgeons four hours
to extract the nail, which had penetrated his brain.
The uninsured Lawler is expected to make a full
recovery but now must contend with the headache
of a $100,000 medical bill.
