Pain can sometimes be maddening

When you are in intolerable pain and you have no way to cure or reduce it, your mind thinks all sorts of crap:

• I will never do a hit-and-run.  Ever!
• Would that van driver even know that he hit me?
• Can he imagine I'm going through this hell?
• Why can't I just sleep tonight and wake up completely alright tomorrow?
• Why some wounds take so much time to cure?  Why can't they cure fast?

I was thinking all this on the 4th night from my accident.
