It's not just that... I still have dreams about the Skulls. [He still has nightmares of being left behind, too. That part, he doesn't say.] What they did. I wake up and even with the prosthetics, I'm in excruciating pain.

[He's always in pain, though. Worse than he admits now. He lives with it all the time.]

I don't think that's just the shrapnel doing that. Not when it happens to me, too.
