I'm Paralyzed for life. Gunshot to the back.

Man, I have been reading your posts for years. We always seemed so alike (in our drug habits/preferences), and now I realize we are the same age! So it really hits home with me, and I am sorry it happened.

edit: So, are you numb from the waist down? I was just wondering if you were typing on a normal computer.

I'm not even sure what to say. I commend you for selflessly acting to protect your girl. I hope she's sticking by your side during these tough times.


I am so sorry to hear this. The game is not glamorous as I once felt it was, as well. Nothing I can possibly say means shit, thanks for posting this. It serves an incredible public service announcement. So very sorry.
 
it's really disheartening to read that. being around drugs has really made me realized the depths to which some animals will go for a dollar. no humanity in their souls
 
Damn that really sucks.:(
So many people dieing and getting shot.
Really sorry to hear that.:(

clear some PM space man.

we were supposed to meet up sometime since we both live in atlanta. im so so sorry what happened to you that sucks so bad man. what hospital did you goto?

i was a heroin addict hardcore up until recently. me and my girl goto the methadone clinic at grady hospital daily now though.

if you ever want to shoot the shit, grab a drink, or whatever, shoot me a pm

Just cleared up some space. I'd be down with meeting up to have a drink or something, but I'm somewhat apprehensive (due to the fact that I was set up on a very different, very scary type of Police experience through someone on bluelight who lived in the Atlanta area.)

I went straight to Grady. I was off North Avenue and Boulevard when this incident occured. Like less than 5 mins from Grady. We definitely have some similarities in our background. Shoot me a pm if u wanna do somethin soon.

damn man, sorry to hear about that.

reminds me of something that happened awhile back around here. 2 guys owed another $10000 and called him and said to meet where ever and that he was getting his money. when he got there he got shot in the face. some how he lived and is still alive to this day.

to go over what GM said again, its all fun and games to read about being a badass w/ guns and money dealing not caring about tomorrow and thinking how cool that must be to drive a nice car, people fear you, whatever else you can think of. but the reality is most people in the game end up getting arrested and sometimes shot and paralyzed and some arent so lucky to keep their life. you think youre getting paid your money one second and the next your family could be standing over the casket. ones gotta realize that theres people out there that WILL shoot and kill, even if its over $900 which isnt even that much money.

keep your head up Synto

Yeah. I had actually delt with this guy over a pretty long period of time. We had done business for a couple years and everything was straight. He asked for a measly $900 front one day and explained his situation and why he needed money so bad. I didnt have a problem at the time. It sounded legit. I never got my money back and didnt hear from him for a few months. I was a little agitated, but it was only $900 so I let it go.

He called me out of the blue on Dec. 5th and told me that he wanted to get right with me because he needed to make some more cash and had my $900. He apologized and made up another bullshit story. I guess I'm too gullible. I was like 15 minutes away eating with my girl and told him I'd be there within the hour. I've been in similar situations hundreds of times and never had a problem like this. He had seen me with sums of cash at different times and had heard that I had a lot of cash on me.

He told another youngbuck a little about me and offered him a portion of whatever they got from me. They came to some type of agreement. Basically he had someone else do it because he didn't have it in him. It's what it is. Buddy shot to kill and didn't succeed.

Wow. I can't even imagine that happening, god only knows how you feel. Do you know who the guy is who did it? He shouldnt get off with a pass.

Shouldnt this be in the dark side?

I know the guy who set me up pretty well. I didn't previously know the shooter himself. I've since learned who he is as well. He's on the run. The Atlanta police department supposedly has about 50-100 reported shootings a day. The lead investigator hasn't done shit and I didn't expect anymore. From everything I know about the shooter, he'll be dead soon anyways. He's done similar things numerous times recently and has a lot of enemies.

robbyberto I can't imagine what you're going through. Good luck. There is hope, my friend. I believe that technology may exist in 15 years that will allow you to walk again. Be hopeful.

There's stem cell research on spinal cord injuries in other countries that has allowed many people in similar situations to walk again. I don't doubt that technology will gimme my legs back in time.

I can't feel anything from about the nipples down. When I first was admitted to the hospital they said I was technically a quadraplegic, due to the fact that I lost a little function in the three fingers closest to the right on my right hand. I got that back. It sucks but it's not as bad as I would have imagined prior to being put in this situation. I'm learning to get around the same.

That sucks man I hope the fuckers who set you up get whats coming to them

damn bro that is some fucked up shit. im sorry to hear about that man, this shit happens all because some fuck up is trying to be slick and pull a fast one without giving a fuck about what would happen. if it was me i would have told them to kill me because i would come back for all of them.

solve violence with violence and watch the cycle continue
 
Synto, we've talked in the past. Damn, I'm sorry to hear this shit. I hope the little fuck that blasted you gets shot in the testicles and stomach, is left to bleed within an inch of his life, and then is brought to a mexican hospital where he not only contracts aids but a flesh-eating disease, after finding out he is not only paralyzed but has throat cancer and a painful form of skin neuralgia that causes constant pain for something as simple as the wind touching his skin.


I get down to atl here and there for work-ill pm you if I'm going to be down that way anytime soon. Truth be told, I was looking to talk with another atl Bluelighter who robbed me way back when (long story).


Stay positive-as much as you can. If you ever need to vent or just want to talk some shit to someone who will listen, pm me for my aim. Talk to you later.

Swybs
 
That sucks.

Just want to say that I really respect that your first thoughts and actions were to save the girl you were with. Very brave and selfless of you. I hope she realises what you did.

Anyway, hopefully some good can come out of this. Do you plan to use this to motivate you to make some positive changes in your life and make the most of where you are now?
 
your in my prayers, i hope everything gets better man. Things can get better though, you just need to think positive... good days and bad days are all the same, just a chain of events occuring - how your perceive them will shape your day. Stay safe man, if you need any advice or help (like with finding meaning now, or having a fulfilling life with your problems) feel free to pm me, I already know how you could improve your life...as it improves anyones life. Stay safe man
 
thats really horrible, my sympathies...... so PARA means you can still move your arms correct? thats really sad man, but at least you can push your own wheelchair. what a evil fucker man, $900 dollars, WTF - man i would recommend not getting into drugs to numb the pain, you seem like a smart dude, and a good dude too. sucks bad things happen to good people. if i were you man, and they do catch the dude, i would testify against his ass in a SECOND. that would be the most redeeming part, looking into his eyes from across a courtroom and telling the jury what he did and getting him 25 to life on attempted murder

sorry to hear this...very sad indeed.. I fell once on my back and had to go to a rehab center ( not for drugs kind ) to walk properly again... so I know the feeling.

I just got chills.
take it easy, bro.:D

thats a real respectable thing protecting your girlfriend like that. True selflessness.
anyway I hope you can get into one of those stem-cell research clinics in another country you mentioned.

peace
 
Synto, you are alive with all your mental faculties entact.

You are only 21 and can conservatively expect to live for at least another 60 years. The sky's the limit for you!

There's an old Japanese saying that I love:

He who is still alive still has a chance!
 
Any chance you will be able to have kids? or is that area not workable anymore?. Would be a shame.... to not be able to have kids now over $900 bucks.. and hopefully the girl you saved stays with you the rest of your life since you saved hers basically she SHOULD def be there for you! forever. As it will be hard to find a girl being in a wheelchair....
 
i wasnt shot but i was in a bad car wreck. doctors promised be i would never have any use of my legs... now i am walking as much as i want to and i dont even have to use a cane!! miracles happen!! keep on with physical therapy and all that shit and you never know what could happen
 
Fucking terrible story... over $900 bucks that someone else owes you... I feel for you man. I couldn't imagine what that must be like. I hope your girl stays with you and I hope the fuckers get what they deserve. Best of luck
