Launch Delay And Getting Blinded By A Squash Ball..
// March 9th, 2010 // 5 Comments » // DIY Music, How to sell music, Music Marketing and promotion
We are in the middle of launching a new training program,
and are having major problems!
Part 1 of the video series was sent out on thursday,
and Parts 2 and 3 were meant to be on their way by now,
but unfortunately I had a little accident…..
Some of you know that I love to play squash,
and usually play every Friday night.
Unfortunately on Friday, the guy I was playing
decided to hit the ball very hard- straight into my left eye!
I was immediately blinded, and blood started to
pour down my face.
People rushed to help and called the ambulance ->
I was going in to shock – shaking/nausea/wanting to fall asleep..
Eventually the ambulance came and we were on our way to the hospital.
As they operate a triage system, we ended up having to wait to see the doctor,
and during this time, as the adrenaline started to subside, the pain began to
take over and it started to become unbearable!
It was like someone was poking a stick into my eye repeatedly!
Finally I was able to see the doc, and get some x-rays done.
The eyeball had sustained some major damage and
also it looked like I had fractured the socket of my eye!
At 2am, they referred me to another hospital to get the
fracture checked out..
I didnt get to bed until 7am, and then had to go to see another
specialist a few hours later to check out the eye ball damage…
This guy confirmed that I had a huge, in his words “Star Ship Enterprise”
shaped scracth on my eyeball, and also had severe bruising to the back of
the eyeball and also some blood around the front!
Im currently waiting for it all to heal and am applying
various ointments and drops.
Its very difficult to use a computer and to read anything.
My left eye lid keeps itself shut, and so the right eye has to work extra hard
to compensate, but even just moving the right eye makes the left eye move,
and then Im again in agony!!
It looks like I will get better and should make a full recovery,
but probably will delay the launch videos a bit.
Its great that so many people have emailed asking for the next videos,
so thanks very much for that!

As soon as I can get things up and running and out to You All,
I will!
Im so grateful that I am not blind! The Doc said I was VERY lucky.
Sorry for the delay and I will speak to you very soon.
All the best,
Hagop.
