So you understand! We have a mini farm too, mostly me as my husband operates a business. It’s usually fine unless we have to do some big project. Our scariest experience this year tho was my husband rolled a tractor. Fortunately, he was able to jump off as it was tilting 😳

Know two people killed by tractor. One was just a mower. So scary.

An uncle had one roll ON top of him.

It was terrible...as, my aunt, of course, had no idea. Luckily, he was close enough to the road and someone saw it.

The firefighters/EMS have to be especially careful...as you know...when ‘lifting’ tractor, to prevent the rush/pressure of blood.

They think what ‘saved’ him, was that he was in a mushy creek bed.

He was life flighted to the med center.

That was over 20 years ago...and, he’s doing great, still, thankfully.
