My run-in with a para glider

So yesterday Scott, the boys and I were up at Squaw Peak (lookout) and we were watching some paragliders that happened to be jumping from that peak into the valley. I was holding Ryder standing on the other side of the low rock wall by our car when one of the paragliders went to take off when he caught a wind that shot him back 15 feet or more, passing right by Scott and Cohen and plowing right into me and Ry. I tried to turn and move but he body slammed me mid air and I went backwards over the wall hitting the car and then the asphalt with my head, jamming my tail bone and scraping skin off my legs and ankles on the wall. I went straight back holding Ryder tight and I thought he had hit his face or head when we fell and was freaking out. He had tucked his face into my shoulder so luckily he just a few scrapes and bruises on the top of his head. People standing by held the boys when Scott and the glider knelt by me. The back of my head was swollen with a fist sized bump and I was in a lot of pain and felt dizzy and nauseous so they called 911 and I got my first ambulance ride. They secured me to stretcher and the ride to the Timpanogos hosptial was uncomfortable being on my tailbone, swollen head and road rashed legs. I was feeling very stressed the entire ride and while they did Xrays because we don't have health insurance for Scott and I and the last thing we need right now are more medical bills. The glider came to the hospital and did everything he knew how up on the mountain. He gave us his information and said he has paragliding insurance, we hope that will cover any costs for us! The hospital just rinsed my scrapes and gouges with water and wrapped them with an ace bandage, cleared my Xrays to take my neck brace off and told me I probably have a concussion and to come back if I need to. I am starting to feel better today after resting and having my mom do her energy work on me. The swelling has gone way down on my head, I am starting to be able to sit up without a lot of tail bone pain and feeling dizzy. My ankles and legs still hurt so I feel gimp and can't walk much. I have whiplash and just feel sore in general.
I think I will just tell people it was a paragliding accident and leave it at that! Sounds cooler. :)


(5 Months Later) Update: Here are some pics of the road rash and chunks out of my left foot and right heel. These don't do the pain I felt justice and don't show the intense bruising or swelling and hard muscles that formed for months in my right calf, it was like a huge rock! I couldn't wear any other shoes other than flip flops all summer which was frustrating because I had just bought a jogging stroller just before I got hurt! I had my right leg wrapped for weeks to keep the gauze on and Scott had to take a week off after the accident to take care of me and the kids and then I still needed help for another week! I have a huge chunk of scar tissue that still bothers me with some shoes almost 5 months later! My left foot completely healed, but I have dark scars all up my calf still that haven't gone away. I am thankful it wasn't worse and am so so thankful Ry was not really hurt. The guys insurance ended up covering all of the medical costs (over $3,000), plus the week of work Scott was out so it was a blessing that was taken care of for us!
