Have you ever broken a bone?

I have broken multiple bones. Each circumstance was different, and most of them were not a big deal. In a way, my bones tell my life story.

I broke my clavicle in 2011 in an accident, but it healed on its own while I was in a coma, so I have no memory of it.

I also fractured my toe when I fell off of a hammock a few weeks ago. I got it X-rayed, and it did not move out of place. So the doctor prescribed me some pain meds and said, β€œIt will heal on its own.”

I also got half of both of my left front teeth knocked out when I was a child. I must have been about eight. I was in a moon jump, and I sat at the bottom of a slope. One kid didn’t look before he slid down the slope head first. I looked up right as his head reached me, and my face collided with the top of his head.

In a way, my bones tell my life story. I have broken multiple bones. Each circumstance was different, and most of them were not a big issue.

    My family never breaks bones, but I managed to break my left humerus just below the shoulder and fractured the head of it in about three or four paces. (My dog accidentally collided with me at the dog park). I didn’t go to the hospital until it turned black and blue a couple of days later. It didn’t occur to me that it could be broken. I just had to wear a sling for weeks and in nine weeks it was all over good as new.

      Wow! That sounds like a serious injury. So glad it healed good as new!
