Breaking News: Sillentwill-Mylot Member- Suffered From An Accident

Philippines
October 11, 2012 8:41am CST
I was browsing my phone this morning while waiting for for the souvenirs for the upcoming event this Saturday to be finish. I saw the number of "silentwill" and decided to dial his number. I've tried several times but it is just ringing. After an hour, I got a text message " Who's this?"? coming from him. I called him and introduce my username. I invited him to the event and he told me that as much as he wanted to go with us, he can't because he slipped in one of the malls here in one of the malls here in our place.He has a bone crack in his arms.He was on leave for 3 months. and you know what guys, we found out that we just belong in one company, working at the same floor but different department. I was really amazed with this scenario. What about you guys, do you have any scenario that you get to meet a person accidentally that both of you belong in two fields? we will see other when he go back to office. let's look forward for his immediate remedy. Note: Silentwill allowed me to post discussion about this. He is also posting some discussions in the site starting today. Happy mylotting!! - Rberon1985-

Thanks rberon1985 and everyone for the well-wishes. I'm afraid I hadn't been very active lately which is why I only knew a few from here like mysd. It actually happened two months ago, it was a stormy night and the walkway from the mall to our office was wet and slippery. I slipped, used my left arm to break the fall but broke 2 bones on my forearm. I underwent surgery and now have two 3-inch metals attached to my bones. I've been on rest since then and will be for 3 months, so I don't get back to work until next month. As much as I would've liked to join the meet up I'm afraid I can't. On a positive note, my arm is gradually improving and while it'll probably never be as good as before I can at least use it now to do small stuff like eating, typing in the computer, anything not requiring to lift heavy objects. It's sad that I'm unable to carry our 2-week old baby because of that, but I still feel blessed thinking it could've been worse, it could've been my back or my head that hit the floor had I not used my arm. And I just look at not being able to work to be an opportunity to have an extended time to spend with my boy. Most dads only get a week of paternity leave in the Philippines, I believe and I'm getting a month. Plus now I bave time to check mylot. Still looking at the bright side despite this unfortunate event and difficulty I'm in. Again thanks everyone for your concerns. And have fun to those joining the meet up.

Hi mysd. Yes thankfully I can type now and should ever my left hand gets tired I can also use my phone to post in here. That discussion you saw me comment on was the first one I did after having the accident. I'd been wanting to visit mylot for a month now but could not log in using any of the passwords I use for different sites to no luck. Turns out It was my username, I was trying to log in to silent_will and didn't realize it was that extra underscore that was wrong. So I figured that out only last week and that's where you found me.

He told me that he is already posting here few days ago.i think no worries with it since he is already fine. he just need another month to rest. we will see each other probably first week of December since we just came from one office. maybe we will meet during lunch hour or probably after work, just to say "hello"

I think he was already an old member of the site. Way back 2010, he wanted to join the conference, he was just so busy that time because of work, i think. I can't find his profile here so I am not really sure, but if he is already joining the conference last time, it only determines that he's been here for a long time. happy mylotting!!

rberon: I was in a play house in Toronto. I have not seen such a good one earlier. I was also playing with the children very well for 30/35 minutes. After that in order to save a boy falling from a slide I attempted--not realising I was wearing a socks and it was slippery. I fell down over my left and it caused heavy pain. I had to sit in a corner for about five minutes. I was having some pains in left hand earlier and doctor had given tablets for angina reduction. The pain increased and then I took one Tylonol and slowly pain subsided and that god there was no fracture because the bottom surface was not very rough/hard. I am sorry our friend silentwill fell in a mall. yes some places are slippery and we have to be more careful.

Sorry to hear about your situation. It's good that there were no fractures.as per silentwill, it happened when there was a typhoon here in our area. in my case if there is a typhoon, i preferred not to go out(unless necessary). I just stayed at home,mylotting or probably sleeping. the saddesst thing in my job, even it is already signal 3, we are still required to go to the office.

Hello rberon, It's getting weirder, looks like to me that some one's trying to stop us from gathering in this event. first, me almost loosing my debit card but now him slipping to some mall out there?? I hope nothing happens to others who have already contributed and confirm attendance to this event. wow! looks like were talking to a REAL veteran here of six years! yeah i kinda remember him lolz

Not so much a veteran as you guys are since I'm not as active. I wasn't really part of the get-together, he was just able to contact me 2 days prior to invite me and found out what happened. But it happened 2 months ago so it's got nothing to do with the get together. I'm sure you will have a blast and maybe next time I will finally be able to join.

well, i hope it's only some talk and eat because i hate games and i got OP the first time of that event...

I might have come across him here but I really can't remember him. Well, anyway, please send our regards to him if he still answers your call or text message. And do let him know that we wish he will get better soon. I haven't experienced what you have experienced, that must have been a nice feeling knowing how small this world can be.

He is online now, you can see his response on the second page of this discussion. you can probably add him as a friends. the three of us were both filipino members. actually, you are correct the feeling is nice, you won't really belleve how small the world could be. maybe he goes back from work and will have a time, we will truy to meet year, probably at the courtyard at 5th floor. we will have some short conversation. it is just sad that he can't attend the conference due to his condition. what about you, are you attending the confeence on saturday?

that is actually the trend right now. most of the people comminicate now through computers. before we just started with desktop, now inventors even make it better and comforatable to the users after they invented the laptop and now the tablets.it is very helpful to all of us because we get to communicate with a lot of people not only in your area but also in far places like yours.

yes. it is because mylotting cannot be done openly in the office timings. also nowadays people talk less to others but talk more to computer as I am doing now.!!

Sillentwill has already responded somewhere on the first page :) He can type and that's good. He will probably be active even more now if he gets a vacation to recover. I also wish you a complete and full recovery and I hope you will be even more active here, on mylot.

Hi rberon,I am sorry about his fall,I hope he is going to be alright.I do genealogy as a hobby and I have found many coincidences where it turns out I am related to someone that I knew in school.I even found out that my ex is my 5th cousin. That means our son is also my 6th cousin.

Sorry to disappoint you but my husband after that was my 2nd cousin twice removed.
• Philippines

Oh gosh that was really weird. your son is your 6th cousin. i think its fine since you are no longer near relative to your husband, i think what is bad us when the person that you get married is your first or second cousin.

Never experience similar to what you have. In your case it's normal to be shock or amaze because the person you want to meet was one of your company mate and also a member of myLot. Can't remember his username leave a comment on my post.

It's really amazing event if you meet him personally after your conversation on the phone. I think it deserves a party for both of you. Need to undergo bar hopping after all.
• Philippines
11 Oct 12
When i was talking to him over the phone, i was actually overwhelmed because I can't believe that we just work in one company and with the same floor, then we belong in one organization, which is mylot, somehow weird right? i think you are already having a constant communication with him, i saw it above, so you can probably add another.

I'm sure you were able to encounter him here. he's been here for quiet sometime. maybe you just don't recall him since he's been out for almost 3 months. I am also expecting that teh convention will be happy. i have completed everything that I need. I'm so excited to see them.I am looking forward that they will enjoy it and the souvenirs.

Yes, it was clearly discussed below on what happened to him that's why he wasn't able to log in here. It was so sad but it's good that he is already in the process of recovery. I agree with sishy7,we met accidentally and accident also happened.

Hi Rberon, I think I haven't encountered Silentwill in here...maybe due to my long absence. But I am hopeful that he will be OK. And hopefully he can post some good news about his recovery for all of us to feel better. We couldn't really get away from accidents. Anyways, I haven't experienced that kind of coincidence. I think you two are destined to meet up and be friends in actual life. Happy Mylotting!

Both of you did not meet since you were both absent in couple of months here.maybe this time he can add you or you can add him as a friend since he already responded on this discussion. Coincidence that I experienced happens very seldom in one to two persons.If we will be given a chance like to have bonding with one another, i would like too. we can probably talk about mylot or we could talk about other earnings sites.
• Philippines

I did add him up. It would be nice to have a lot of friends in here. And as much as possible, I would try not to absent for too long. But I don't want to be really sure about it since I don't really know what will happen in the future that could lead me to be absent. Anyways, have a great day!

I am not sure if I've come across this member yet or not. I am sorry to hear of his injury and hate that he has to be on leave from work. I do hope that he can spend more time here with us though so we can get to know him better. It's curious that you two work in the same company, even on the same floor. Maybe when he gets back from his leave, you two can lunch together sometimes?

I am actually planning to meet him when he comes back from work. you can probably barge in on the second page. he already responded on this post and thanking everyone for the support and prayers. you can also add his a friend so you can see his discussions and respond to it especially you are interested on what he posted.

rberon sorry to hear one of our members has suffered fracture. he is advised rest for 3 months. very sad. i have not met this member in mylot during the last three months i am active here. I have not had any opportunity to meet a colleague --because i am retired. I am only imagining i will meet a member of mylot suddenly in a railway station or airport and recognise him by the photo. possible /not possible/impossible/partly possible/cannot say.-- what is your estimation?

For me it is always possible,in an accidental way. just like me, i never thought that silentwill is my co-worker in our company. but since there was this scenario, i get to meet him and found out that we belong in two organizations.i am not really sure in your case, since you are already a retiree, mostly, you just stay at home.maybe the best thing to do for you to meet other lotters in your area,is there gonna visit you in your house.loljust give me them a free food,

What a nice coincidence! Out of all the companies and offices in Makati City, you both belong to the same one... I can't think of any similar scenario for me. The closest was probably when I found out a former colleague whom I just met then was married to one of my ex. Speedy recovery to Silentwill!

it is really a coincedence. it only determines that the world is too small that we can get to meet people from one organization to another organization. i am planning to meet him when he gets back to office, probably we couldhave like lunch out or dinner.let's look forward for his immediate recovery.

Hahaha that scene made me smile and say that really the world is so small . One day will bump with each other in unexpected place. See because of that incident happened to silent will it yields to an information that your working in one company. How many times maybe both of you bumped or ate in same table in your company , maybe couple of times . See how amazing and beautiful is life , i want to conclude that each and everyone is related to each other.
