The Eye - War Wound

My sister asked me to post pictures of my eye. I am sorry they are so grotesque. But this is it. I got hit in the eye playing Amtgard over the weekend. In four years, one injury, pretty good. And I do get out and fight every week. It was just a heavier weapon with no give and a big guy wielding it. He felt so bad, and apologized profusely. It was a complete accident and something I realize can happen every time I take the field. Luckily nothing is broken. Yes, I had X-Rays on Monday, and will go to the Opthamalogist on Friday. Let the healing begin!!
This first one is from Monday.

And this second one is from last night, much improved if you ask me.
