Forget His Vacation, Here are Pictures of His Trauma Stay

Tuesday, May 20, 2008

New Jersey Monthly senior editor Eric Levin is an avid photographer, so avid in fact that when he was hit by a car on Sunday while mowing his lawn, he took along a camera to the ER as UMDNJ-Newark. The picture above isn't upside down, it's a patient's-eye-view of the trauma room.

Levin, who's walking slowly now after being held for observation Sunday night, blogs his trauma here. Levin sustained a hairline fracture at the back of his skull, and is, amazingly enough, still on good terms with the neighbor who accidentally plowed into him with his SUV. (Beware turning a lawnmower around on a shady driveway.)

While Levin was in the hospital, meanwhile, readers of Richard Lacayo's Time magazine blog were first introduced to Levin's photo blog. Congrats, Eric, and a speedy recovery from your friends at Baristanet.

Let's see if they are still on good terms when levin sues his neighbor (as his insurance company will encourage him to do).

"Beware turning a lawnmower around on a shady driveway." Acually, "beware SUVs." I suspect his injuries wouldn't have been as bad had he been struck by a smaller vehicle. Come on folks, give us this monstrous vehicles....they are gas guzzlers, road hogs, and bad for the environment....and your neighbors.

Come on folks, give us these needlessly large vehicles....they are gas guzzlers, road hogs, and bad for the environment....and your neighbors.
