Ouch. This is frighteningly close to the recent sad story of an old friend of mine. She and her husband were visiting Las Vegas in August. He was very physically fit and did a workout in the casino hotel's gym, then went to their spa/hot tub to relax for a while. He was just climbing out of the spa when he slipped on the marble (!!) flooring, fell and sustained devastating, fatal injuries (I presume to the head, but my friend didn't reveal details and I didn't ask).
So thank goodness that wasn't your story; still, your injuries were bad enough, and I'm sorry.
And yes, there is a lawsuit underway in Las Vegas. Ironically enough, the husband was a personal injury attorney.

There was this one day where I was playing some three on three in the neighborhood and noticed that the school bus was pulling up. I went up for a dunk with the idea of showing off for any females who may have been on the bus. I hung on the rim but as my body swung forward, I lost my grip and fell. It was an awkward fall and I put my right arm (I'm right handed) down to help me brace for the fall. I could hear the bone snap when I hit the ground. I remember popping up, not feeling any pain at all, and looking at my arm - which was now bent at roughly a 30 degree angle between my elbow and wrist. I couldn't believe what i was seeing. I turn and show it to everyone else on the court and they instantly cringe. The entire time I was waiting for the pain to kick in but it never did. Looking back, I must have been in shock. I ended up going inside my friends house and calling my mom, telling her that I just broke my arm and was walking home. I ended up yacking on the walk home - probably due to the shock of it all - but oddly enough I never felt any pain.
This was unfortunately just before district tournaments for tennis so I had to sit out that year. The final diagnosis was that one of the two bones (not sure if it was the radius or ulna) broke and the other sort of bent. Had to be put under to have that set and ended up wearing a cast for a few months. I never hung on the rim while dunking ever again unless it was an 8 foot goal.

I am starting to regain some strength since the shots Monday, and I actually cut close to thirty acres of grass Friday......kicked my asz today as my wife had a funeral and instead of changing I kept my pjs on and went out in public with them.....my wallet fell out because PJs were not made for wallets and the pizza place had some new wait staff......the stares were priceless, but then I always leave a 25% tip on pick up and they probably thought I was let out of the local mental institution and did not know how to count......next week i will wear my jeans.......I am afraid I am going to sexually stimulate young women wearing my sexy pjs.........or permanently put the image of the same on their young minds.....forever celibate.
