Woman Survives Being Impaled in Neck by 13-Inch Tree Branch A joy ride through the wilderness of Northern Idaho turned into a nightmare for 22-year-old Michelle Childers and her husband after a tree branch came crashing through a window of their truck — impaling Michelle in the neck.
Childers and her husband Daniel were driving along the Lochsa River in the mountains of North Central Idaho on Sept. 5 when the accident happened, KHQ-TV reported.
Michelle Childers literally didn't know what hit her.
"I asked (my husband) ‘what where is it?’ "Childers told the news station.
Her husband answered, "It's in your neck."
About an hour after the incident, Childers and her husband arrived at Lochsa Lodge near the Idaho/Montana border where a helicopter and ambulance were immediately called in.
Childers was airlifted to St. Patrick Hospital in Missoula, Mont., where she underwent a six-hour operation to remove the 13-inch Spruce tree branch from her neck.

id like to take this time to welcome my good friend, fellow writer and most importantly- the first Black man to ever grace to cover of Transworld- Mr. Livingroon Johnston to TCOPH... Livingroom hit me up last week, and let me know he was diggin the blog, and particularly my "When Did You Realize Eminem was an Embarrassing jackass" piece.. well, Livingroom- as promised.. i got another on for you..
When did You Realize 50Cent was an Embarrassing Jackass?
- after he made, "How to Rob" and got thrown down some steps and beat down by Ghostface and his fellow Wu members
- after he put out a Order of Protection against member of Murder Inc
- after the BET interview where he said "I got first-hand knowledge of Murder Inc being started with drug money..", and 2 weeks later- Murder Inc was raided and under Federal investigation
- after he claimed to get shot 9 times, but when the police and hospital reports dropped claiming he was actually only hit 3 times
- when he made a song called "In da Club", and you found the only person that really be in the club- is the dude who clapped him up in front of his Grandma's
- when he popped all that sh!t on the radio, and when the Game & Blackwallstreet showed up.. he high-tailed it out the back door..
- when Game single-handidly embarrassed him, and G-Unit
- when Game said he'll put 50 in the ground like his mother, and 50 did nuffin
- when the L.O.X. embarrassed him on every diss track, and then years later- he was smiling on camera with Jada
- when Jada did "Sorry Mrs. Jackson", and he did nothing..
- when you found out he lives in a mansion with 3 other grown men, but no women
- when 50 made fun of Ja Rule singing, and turned around and made songs singing himself
- when 50 was talking tough to the CEO of Koch, and told him to "put Cam on the phone.." and when Cam got on the phone, 50 changed his whoooooooooole demeanor
- after Cam'ron single-handidly embarrassed him, had made him shaving his teeth down and changing the name of his album
- when he made "Candy Shop"
- when he lost to Kanye, and tried to twist the rules and say he "meant worldwide numbers.."
- when Jay told him he couldnt release the "I Get Money" remix, until AFTER Kanye dropped his album
there ya go, my dude.. and once again- welcome to the site(as well as the blogroll). and i said it once, and ill say it again.. some of these new school, Willy bo-bo ass black cats who skate and claiming they this & that.. yall need to do some fukkin knowledge before yall go out trying to speak/represent for everybody else.. i mean.. just the fact yall dont even know WHO Livingroom Johnston REALLY is, or what he represented- is a fukkin joke in itself.. real tawk. half you clowns probly dont even know who the fukk Fred Reeves is, nor- a dayum thing about his legacy.. assclowns..
look.. im outta here.. i got sh! to do, and furthermore- a frame for a bed to go get or some sh!t like that.. for all ya new music, news, etc- hit up hustlemania.. you can also catch me on twitter.. and hold up.. its Tuesday, right? fukk it- Taco Tuesday at my place tonight.. yall be easy. and until next time- jeah!

First piece of the year. TWS presents Clyde Singleton vs George Evans.. roll the tape. im back, like a spinal cord in this bish!
shout out to my man Blair Alley, DeWitt over at Element and Jon Montessi.. and, in the good words of my man O'Shea Jackson, "oh.. it aint over muthafokk'uhs.."
did this n!kka just thaink, not only half the world- but the fokkin government? why the fokk would this dude, "thaink" the government..? didnt he get caught with a cache of weapons over a year ago, and only gonna do 12 months? you do realize, anything less than a year, and one day- you can do less than a year..? something dont sound right. truthfully. the government be "thaink'in" TI for his "co-operation"..
so.. i recently got word of ALOT of industry cats, have gotten laid off.. funny thing about that is. i actually called this, years ago.. reason why, is skateboarding hit what id refer to as the "Gold Rush Era". at first.. nobody believed in it.. then. once it was well known, that there was a "rush". jobs started being given to anyone willing to "search for gold". now the golds gone. workers are useless, and have to go back to there random ass lives of obscurity. ill tap into this in a upcoming editorial. but, in the meantime..
heres something that'll get your minds off the cold weather. and being jobless:
