Narrative

We had two shots today. Halfway through the 2nd shot, I was moving the hose over some drill cutting piles and I felt pain in my scrotum. I went to the ER to be examined by a Dr. After receiving an ultrasound and CT scan, I was told I have 2 Inguinal Hernias that will require surgery to fix.
