I can't beleive I just now remembered this....
When I was 12 I contracted spinal meningitis on the lining of my eyes. Very serious. My eyes looked like Frodo's after the Morgul-blade stabbing. All blood shot and nasty looking.
I just hope the elvish medicine Frodo received did not include the gloopy nasty oil based stuff I had to put in my eyes every and I mean every 2 hours (nights included) for days to keep me from going blind or dying.
Anyways...who else had something happened that is like in LOTR? You know, being shot with arrows or about drowning trying to follow a dear friend.
