I suppose being shot at the age of 12 with a 22, having the bullet, a hollow point, passing through the large and small intestines just missing the kiddney by a fraction of an inch and the left hip bone by twice that distants. Taking a three hour ambulance trip from Mouya on the south coast to Canberra, six hours on the operating table and a lenght stay in hospital would be a close call with death.
