  • Injury

    What is the worse injury you have ever received?    

                                                                                      

Comments (154)

  • Railroad tie to the face while loading them onto a truck…

  • Nothing serious. Just scrapes and bruises.

  • Broke my nose twice. Nothing too serious though.

  • Besides getting a hole in my nose that bled for three hours for no other purpose than to put a decorative piece of metal in it…. I believe spraining my foot was the worst.

  • The worst pain-wise was when I dislocated the last vertebra in my spine- my tailbone.

    The most debilitating was when I broke my foot. I had to quit dance.

  • I broke my wrist in 1st Grade.

    RYC: It usually is, but it’s not YOUR fault. Maybe you are so smart you make them all look really dumb?

  • Sprained my back. It hurt. Alot.

  • Nothing too serious… I have been plagued by several small ailments though, such as iliotibial band syndrom, patella tendonitis, quadricep tendonitis, patellafemoral pain, and I think I might be developing plantar fasciitis in my left foot. Yuck.

  • Fell and cut my chin.. 4 stitches.. hardly worth noting on here.

  • hhhhmmm…probobly this one time when I was six, I was riding my bike while barefoot, and I had a habit of stopping with my feet instead of the bike breaks…and I ran my foot over some broken glass. I still get shudders thinking about it

  • Hit in the head with a golf club, required seven stitches. It really wasn’t all that bad, the best part was what happened afterwards that is a pretty good story I think.

  • a broken heart

  • nothing really. I got my toe caught in a metal fan on an excercise machine when I was 10. That hurt.

  • i was riding on the back of a bike with my sister when I was 6 and my foot went in the wheel and continued to entwine itself in the spokes…having your foot removed from a bike…not fun.

    Oh, and i bit a hole in my tongue that same summer.

  • Broken ankle when I was running away from my first husband who was trying to beat the shit out of me. He forbid me from going to the hospital, because he was afraid that I would turn him in. My step mother came and saw me a few weeks later and saw me hobbling around leaning on a 5 gallon bucket trying to take care of 2 toddlers and an infant. She took me to the hospital… it was broke… it never did heal right.

    I got carpal tunnel in both my wrists due to having to wash my clothes for 7 years in an old fashioned wringer washer where the wringers were broke. So I had to wring out my clothes by hand. The pain was so bad! My wrists required surgery back in 2001. My last carpal tunnel surgery was completed September 11, 2001 around 9am. The surgeon said there was so much scar tissue that he doubted that the surgery would relieve the symptoms for very long. He was right.

  • I fell out of a tree house. It hurt.

  • I got hit by a car, destroyed the nerves in my leg. I’m still on the fucking cane.

  • Fell on my butt while roller skating and cracked my tail bone

  • Shattering my left ankle in a tri-plane fracture. I have two metal rods now holding it in place. Optimistically, my left ankle is now indestructible.

  • My cat’s blacked my eye,
    or my brother’s kicked me in the nose.

    That’s about it.

  • When I sprained my foot I was actually about eleven and practicing gymnastics in my very small room. I turned a cartwheel and my foot slammed into my dresser.

  • I’m pretty lucky, I can’t think of any really bad ones; however, when I gave blood for the first time, they forgot to loosen the turnicet, and I ended up getting a really bad bruise on the area where they drew blood. It was a little over 2 inches in diameter, and stuck around for a month-ish.

  • “a broken heart”

    Dang! you stole my line

  • Can I pick three?  How about getting my finger caught in a set of electrical hedge-trimmers.  Whiplash is a close second.  Then hitting my head hard enough to black out would be third.

  • “a broken heart”

    agreed

  • Sprained ankle.

  • having my hips medically broken.

  • Reading the Xangas of Creationists.

  • apparently a piece of glass flew into my eye when i was a baby. that or a relatively light ankle sprain in 7th. i’ve been pretty lucky.

  • Oh my word, I forget when my brother threw a baseball at me and it hit me in the mouth and I had to get a root canal..

  • I got thrown off a horse in riding lessons as a little kid. o__o I fell straight on my head and if I didn’t have my helmet on, I’dda probably gotten brain damage.

     Irony is, I told my parents I didn’t wanna take lessons anymore because they were boring. :P And they told me to go to one last lesson.

  • emotional/mental abuse…. those hurt the worst… physically i’ve broken a foot before.

  • Sprained my wrist roller skating when I was 8.  I’ve been lucky.  Or really careful…?

  • bit by a rattlesnake…man that hurts!

  • i broke my tailbone two years ago. ive broken my toes a couple of times… one actually goes a different way at each knuckle.

    but i think my knees are worse. i have chronic tendonitis, some kind of cyst that isn’t going away, micro tears in my tendons and such, and a disease that makes the underside of my kneecap rough so it rubs away the cartilage.

  • Sprained each ankle twice. Now suffering from strained tendons in my knee. Keeping me off the tennis courts… *sniff, sniff*

  • I broke my nose twice..  Also broke my finger and never got it fixed so it’s kinda mess up.

  • spanked by my English teacher father for using the word “worse” instead of “worst.”

  • dislocated knee…worst feeling ever

  • That should be “the worst injury.” Worst! Not worse! Worse always means you are only comparing two things.

    >.>;

  • i fractured my collarbone when i was doing a flip on a trampoline

  • tendonitis on my knee

  • I used to do figure skating. There’s this thing called a “sit spin.” I had just gotten my blades sharpened. I was moving down and forward into the spin when I “caught an edge,” whatever that means. I guess they were too sharp. Basically I flew off the blade and crashed whole body chin first. I kind of don’t remember what happened after that. I guess someone must have carried me back to the players’ locker room (the Aeros hockey team practiced there) where they kept a good supply of items for injuries. It’s kind of a blur. At least I fell on ice rather than concrete.

  • I tore my meniscal cartilage … that’s the knee… it sucked.

  • worse or worst?

  • My injuries haven’t been all that bad, so I think it was much harder when my 17 yr. old son had his jaw fractured this summer (working for an old farmer) and was completely wired shut for 2 weeks, then rubber bands for 5 more weeks and still couldn’t chew.

  • would have to be tearing two ligaments in my left knee

  • I busted my arm pretty good. There were about 4-5 major pieces of bone, plus bone splinters. It took 7 hours of surgery to place 2 plates and 12 screws. I have healed up pretty well, but I still have pain.

  • Hey, wouldn’t it be “worst” injury and not “worse” injury?

  • Mine are both ice related – stupid Michigan winters. I slipped on the ice and tore a ligament in the bottom of my foot. A couple of years later I fell and sprained my wrist. Painful, but nothing major.

  • Slipped on the ice on the way to school, and cracked the back of my head on the sidewalk when I was 9 years old. Completely knocked me out  Had to get carried to the office to wait for my dad to come get me and take me to the doctor.  Massive concussion.  I missed a whole month of school, had the world’s worst headaches, couldn’t keep any food down, and for a while I couldn’t even keep down jello.  For some reason, winters never did appeal to me.  Maybe that’s partly why.

  • Rip the side of my thumb apart. They sew it up and I went back to work on the same day.

  • I’ve never really had an injury. . .  does histiocytosis x count as an injury?

  • I was hit by a car in third grade

    I rode my bike in circles, fell on the concrete and sliced my skin from my ankles to my knee on one leg

    I twist/sprane a foot every two years about.. lol

  • Broke my left leg and arm.  Separate incidents.

  • My worse, my worse, my worse!!!!!

    ha ha – take that grammar crucnhers!!! lol

    kidding

  • I fell off the top of a bunk bed and chipped my one front tooth out. It went clear through my lip (lip ring!) and cracked on the concrete floor and straight out of my mouth. I have a fake tooth now. XD

    That, and various knife wounds, the likes of which I will not describe.

  • I told you already.

  • fractured vertebrae- the result of falling out of a basket toss in cheerleading. felt great. ;)

  • Early childhood sexual abuse. The after-effects of such a multi-faceted injury linger for the rest of your life.

  • Ok i wanted to say a broken heart but that just sounds sooo lame! So i would have to say it was when i was about 9 yrs old and fell on a beer bottle and cut my arm wide open. I had to have surgery on two open wounds in a matter of hours because i was losing waaaayyy too much blood. At 9yrs old you can’t really handle that much pain!!

  • When some idiot tried to jump over me in the hallway and landed on my arms.

  • Giving birth was pretty damn painful. Worth it, but still…
    Took my son 40 hours to make his Grand Entrance. And they didn’t give me any pain meds. Us Dutchies are so tough. Or is that stupid?

  • 3 broken ribs. Ouch!

  • my tattoo hurt the worst. but my worst actual injury was falling onto a hammock and landing right on my spine/tailbone and going to the ER to make sure nothing was broken.

  • my heart broken.

  • I broke two metacarpals once.

  • Car accident in high school.  35 stitches in my forehead.  Cut lip, bad bruise on thigh from the steering wheel pinning me in – but it kept me from going through the windshield.  The steering column broke, steering wheel came down on my leg, and my head hit, but did not go through, the windshield.  “All night, all day, angels watching over me….”

  • Broken Tailbone.  I was at the skating rink, and some kid who didn’t know how to stop used me as a wall.

  • i lost my right ovary when a cyst ruptured and i bled internally for over 12 hours and then was cut open in the O.R. ten inches long up and down my belly.

    between that and second degree burns across my entire lap.

  • Once I was riding a horse in the dark under a stadium at a rodeo.

    The horse was galloping.

    An iron cross-bar caught me right across the face, flipping me backward off my horse.

    I landed on my back, going unconscious.

    I woke up in an ambulance missing a tooth.

    That’s literally the worst that’s happened to me.

  • “I fell off the top of a bunk bed and chipped my one front tooth out. It went clear through my lip (lip ring!) and cracked on the concrete floor and straight out of my mouth. I have a fake tooth now. XD”~bittersunday

    My ass just puckered reading that.

  • through sports over time…

    dislocated right knee cap 5x’s and the left once.

    it ended in knee surgery that made me virtually immobile for a year

  • FRACTURING THREE BONES IN MY LEFT FOOT

    PLAYING DODGEBALL MUTHAFUCKA!

  • thrown from a horse

  • sprained ankle. I’m lucky.

  • it’s kind of embarrassing but i stepped on the skull of a catfish and got the barb stuck like an inch into my heel, it had to be cut out.

  • I fell down a flight of stairs and half of my face’s skin came off, I spilled false-nail glue on my belly and by the way, it had acid in it. Other than that, I’m a pretty careful person.

  • Dislocated rib that scarred down out of position and still makes me nauseous sometimes, despite all the doctors, physical therapists, and chiropractor have done… I coughed the silly thing out of place .

    Though, for a violinist, tendonitis/inflamed nerve in the bow wrist is pretty bad…

  • I stepped on a bee, and my whole foot swelled up like a balloon. I never saw a foot that massive, and I had to get a few different shots and a anti biotic to make it ok.

    I broke my wrist doing ballet in a parking lot. Was doing a jump and fell right on the concrete.

    When I was sleeping, my stud earring fell into my pierced hole in my ear, and the flesh closed over. So, I had an earring, literally INSIDE of the flesh of my ear. I had to have surgery to get it out, and it hurt awfully.

    I also have an extreme case of TMJ and different times and at one flair up I couldn’t even laugh because my mouth hurt so bad. All I could eat was pudding and ice cream.

    Besides a baseball hitting me in the face and giving me a massive black and blue mark, having a moskito in my ear, breaking two of my fingers from having them slammed in a car door, falling on my back on mulch from seven feet high, laying my arm on an oven rack and having it stick(four scars) and ripping a root in my gums, really I have lived a rather careful and injury free life.

  • probably the time i split my head open and had to get a bunch of stitches. i’ve never broken a bone or sprained anything.

  • I went flying down stairs at the Social Sciences plaza (in UC Irvine) because we were doing this “run around” and the guy in front of me tripped and we all fell… Scraped both of my knees badly!!

  • Broke six of my ribs and such.

  • i smashed my thumb in some exercise equipment and my nail came off.
    also, i fell out of a two-story window when i was three but suffered no injuries…i made the news though!

  • Two 12 guage shotgun blasts. The first one severed my right hand and blew off my left thumb. The second one, which was aimed at my stomach, found it’s way to the place just above my left knee in the back of the knee. I had turned into the fetal posttion as he fired round 2. The shell cut through my left leg above the back of my knee and exited mid thigh in front.

    When I looked up it looked like about 15 pounds of very bloody ground beef. I knew my hand was gone, but not my thumb left hand till They put me in the ambulance. Thats when they discovered  the hand injuried.

    At the hospital, St. Joseph in K.C. MO.The priest came to give me last rites. They quit saying my blood pressure at 44/20. That’s a pretty sure sign of emminent death. After that they just kept saying “lower, lower.”

    But as fate would have it after 18 hours in surgery and one every other day for six weeks to clean up more jeans, asphalt And schrapnal, 50 units of blood and 18 hours on the surgery table, a bad bout of blood poisening and three months of re-hab, I wheeled out of the hospital with the promise of outpatient surgery,

    Time passes. Because of these injuries, I had a titianum rod in my left leg. It began to cause me some major problems that they had to have me back in the hospital for a tune up.

    They pulled the rod and replaced it but the blood poisening was pretty rampant by then. Finally the just pulled it. I still have that and several pieces of schrapnel here at home.

    I recently had knee surgery because even after all this time I still have health issues.

    I used to wear a prosthetic hand or hook to work but when he had to mess with the blood poisening that came back with A vengence in 2000 to 2002, I had to have a IV installed into my upper arm heading for my heart. The  IV had to be moved from time to time so now I have wehat I call vampire bites on my arm. breast and chest. I had to “hook up” 4 times a day. Real pretty but…hey here I am.

    It was a ex boyfriend who did this because I left him because he was using crack. He shot me in front of about 16 customers. He got 15 to life for attempted 1st degree murder, Left me with pretty bad PTSD for a long time. He is eligible for parole ihn 2008

    Now I teach Batterer’s Intervention and Anger Management. I’m a Social worker. Had to go back to school at 46 because There was no way to be able to work, live and laugh onhyour own time,

    Strange world when every odd is against you but you just hang on. I can walk now, have been since  I was in re-hab at the hospital. Can no longer use my arm prosthetics because the IV made it swell too bad. Still too big for my arm and hook. I sent one of each to Seari Leon so some two folks there because they were maimed by bullitts.  Wish this were a contest because I think I would win. 15 years later walking still hurts. I take pain meds 4 to 6 times a day and have been offered meds, like Methadon.

    Well, I am so tired I am mesing around and not well. I am going to bed now.

  • I put a whole in my top gum. It bled alot.

  • a broken heart…cheezy but true

  • “Recieving injuries,” is a funny expression. It makes me feel like someone is passing them out for free.

  •  Broken heart, ripped from my chest, thrown on the ground and danced on by my ex wife.

  • I shattered five bones in my foot when I was sledding. >__>
    ootz, I’m so smart. =)

  • When I was a lot younger I was jumping on my mums bed and I fell off. I then hit the wall and a picture fell off and hit me on the head! I cracked my head open and need it gluing back together and 2 stiches!

    Also I ran into somebody and took a big bite out of my tounge. I spent 3 hours at hospital to be told they can’t do anything!

  • Stupidity and a false sense of grandeur caused me to be nearly beaten to death. Injuries: Broken cheekbone, broken elbow, fractured right hand, 3 cracked ribs (and two hairline fractures), black & swollen testicles…eventually leading to pissing blood. My jaw was dislocated, two fingers broken, and 40 stitches around my head. Not to mention the fact that I was bedridden and was really one giant bruise. All this was the result of one incident. The lesson learned was that nobody is invincible.

  • Tore my ACL. The actual tear, though, was nothing compared to the pain after the surgery. My leg was like a swollen purple sausage from my hip to my ankle. So nasty.

  • i… chopped off a bit of one of my fingers?

    and they couldn’t put it back on.

    but it was fine.. only quarter of an inch.

    my BROTHER chopped off 4!!! of his fingers (woodsplitter accident), but they reattached 3 1/2 of his.

  • I fell on some cement when I was three and jammed my front tooth up my gum. My parents thought I had lost the tooth until they saw the x-rays.

  • Jumped backwards off the side of a pool and split my chin open on the side of it.

    I actually didn’t notice until my friend started freaking out.

  • I once was riding my bike down a hill and it got away from me. Slipping and ending up skidding down the hill off my bike; wound up with gravel in my chin and hands. If you look, you can still see a little dark spot on my chin.

  • September 1, 2001 I was in a car accident. I broke my neck and was put in a halo. I had emergency surgery. My spleen ruptured and I had a laceration on my liver.

  • It’s not a physical injury, but my spirit was broken when a certain someone committed arson on our house long, long ago. I still haven’t fully recovered.

    Otherwise….a physical ailment would have to be my arms. Lisa Coleman-that bitch-pushed me off a tall slide in the 3rd grade. I ended up falling off the top and I put both arms out to brace myself. Both bones in both wrists were broken all at once. Now I am having extremely bad carpal tunnel in my right wrist and I think it comes from that accident.

  • My current knee injury.  freak accident.

  • I once had a “friend”, bust my head open, with a piece of rebar.

  • reading some of these reminds me that I wrecked my motorcycle at about 10mph and got a pretty nasty chunk of skin taken off my knee [through jeans]. That one kinda sucked for a few weeks.

  • Broke my arm.

    Either that or I busted my chin and had to get stitches. twice.

  • well i was in cheerleading and i broke my left ankle

  • Nothing bad.
    I just have three that come to mind.

    1) stung by a bee on my hand, which made my arm hurt all the way up to my elbow. My little cousin and I were sunbathing and then we got up to hop back in the pool. There was a bee, for some odd reason, on the top of my swimsuit, so my Dad put me in the pool and dunked me like three times to get it off. But then it got in my hair and THEN it got on my hand and stung me.
    Funny thing, that was the same day my other cousin jumped off our diving board and split his chin open on the side of the pool.

    2) Looking for Roley Poley bugs under a large rock with the neighbor kid. My Mom had locked us out of the house so she could get some paperwork done. We agreed that on the count of 3 we’d let go of the rock because it was heavy. He let go on 2, I couldn’t hold it and dropped it on my big toe, that was a lot of blood….

    3) I was short at the time, as most kids are. I wanted to show my friend my sparkly pink barbie toothpaste that I’d just gotten. I climbed on the toilet and was reaching over the counter to grab it. My mom had just turned off the curling iron and it was cooling. My under arm touched it and it STUCK to my skin and wouldn’t come off! My Mom had to pull it off. I still have a scar.

    Like I said, nothing too bad.

  • sprained my foot. couldn’t walk for about a week. couldn’t run well for about 3. it was during softball season too. it really sucked back then, but looking back it wasn’t really that bad.

  • Whiplash – jahesus that hurts!!!

  • A broken toe. I’m a fortunate lady.

  • Fractured my cheek and my right eye was a little lower than the other causing me to see double. After surgery, it was sewed shut.
    That’s pretty hott.

  • Besides cracking my head open as a baby (seriously), which I don’t remember… tearing the ligaments in my ankle during a soccer game when an opponent kicked me instead of the ball. Her cleats left deep bruises for weeks. I was on crutches most of that fall… and again that spring, when it still hadn’t healed… then a moon boot.

    It’s been five years, and it still hasn’t really healed. Hence the end of my running career.

  • I believe that word is supposed to be spelled w-o-r-s-t, not worse!!!

  • My ex boyfriend broke my ankle when he diliberatly attacked me for no reason but to get out his frustrations about being fired from his job… that man has issues! can you say ALCOHOLIC!!!!

  • “I fell of a mountain and survived” (according to my dad, lol.  He’s a bit melo-dramatic about the thing)

    When I was in like, 7th grade my family was hiking in Vermont, and going down the mountain (a hill compared to something like the Rockies) I went off the trail, slipped off a rock and fell 5 10 who knows how many feet onto solid rock below.

    Got all bloody.

    Scabs over my face and body.

    They almost took me to the hospital.

  • Lol as a dancer, I could probably write a 5 page essay on all my injuries… the worst though? Probably  fracturing the same ankle 3 summers in a row, and then dancing on it like crazy afterwards every single time. Particularly the time I came out of a jump and just snapped over it. Or permanently screwing up my entire back and neck. Even after physical therapy, I still feel that one consistently. Those are the two I still feel years later. I’ve also landed my whole body weight directly on my knee coming off pointe, but I don’t feel that one now. I probably will in about 20 years though.

  • Actually, non-dancing related. My boyfriend dropped me straight on my head in the middle of our street. It was my fault though…I jumped on his back without warning and he didn’t catch me like I thought he would. My head was actually bleeding, but I didn’t feel it. I really didn’t feel much of anything. Lol, I was barely awake. I just lay there for about 5 minutes and officially freaked out my boyfriend and brother.

  • Not sure.  Four choices are dislocated shoulder when I rolled a pick-up truck; severely sprained ankle when I had a pick-up truck peel out from under me; or a chipped testicle from playing leadfrog with a firepump as a kid (and missing clearing it by a little).

    Do I win?

  • Hey BlueMarsupial:  I did that gravel slide on my chin off my bike thing too.  Parents were too poor to get me stitched up properly so I spend a couple of weeks with a big-old bandage on my chin.  I had blue scar under my chin for years.

  • Lol, I have survived alot of things. Getting stung by a certain wasp was the closest I have ever come to death(15 minutes from dieing).All in all though, the “worst” injuries I ever got, were all emotional(I hurt even now:(, and I seldom have a day where I don’t hurt…..Emo, I know) That includes getting struck by lightning and gettin hit by cars 2 times.

  • Broke my wrist. Required a long cast for 3 weeks and a short cast for 5 weeks after that.

    Comeon people, stop with the ILLNESSES. Injuries are damage we inflict to our bodies, not internal ailments.

  • I fell out of a shopping cart on my way home from school.  I was afraid my parents were going to get mad at me so I didn’t tell them until the next day when my elbow was all swollen.  Turns out I had broken my arm.  And I was right, my parents DID get mad.

  • Oh and once I was playing “rock wars” with some classmates and a rock hit the side of my head and it bled for a reeeeeeally long time.

  • Spring my ankle four times. First time, my leg fell asleep. Second time, I fell down the stair. Third time, I was I trip up the stair. Fourth time, I trip and fell down for chasing a bus. Yes, I’m a clumsy person. This is my 6th year of spring ankle free. Yeah, me!

  • baseball bat to the eye when i was 5. yes, my brother hit me.

  • I got a nasty paper cut once.

  • Does a C-section fit in this poll ?

  • the injury you have inflicted on me, DAN, by not coming to my site more often. I’ve gotten one comment and one chatboard message from you!! Where’s the love?

  • Stepped on broken bottle, shard went through my left foot, bottom to top. Dislocated shoulder, poppin that back in was fun. Worse worse, hit w a bat to d spine. Never healed right.

  • Molten sterling silver into the right ring finger. Not to major as it fell a distance, about 6 in, but still hot enough to burn and be painful in removing.

  • This year while I was at camp, I was playing flag football, only a differant twist to it – no football just socks. Haha. So our team sucked big time, like we lost everything. So when I had the first sock I was so excited I ran to our side of the field – only I couldn’t stop – and I tripped over myself, did a sorda baseball “slide” only on my knee and it HURT. What was worse, I wanted to stop playing – but my teammates were like “get up! go!” So I continued playing, and I ended up not going to the nurse cause I didn’t want to mess with it… I thought the pain would go away, but for like 3 weeks afterwards I couldn’t bend my knee without shooting pain in my leg. I was in BIG time pain for a while… The funny thing is, later I was playing it with friends – not even 30 seconds into the game I was hurt again… I NEVER get hurt,(As you can tell since this was my worst, ha.) I love the game but I always seem to get hurt… =p

  • my sister kicked me in the eye with a boot before
    nad i’ve had a concussion

  • I cut my toe off down to the nail bed..they had to clip the bone and re attach my toe….but it turned black and fell off…it hurts like mad when it gets stubbed (this would be my middle toe on my left foot.)

  • Was playing Tarzan-a on a rope swing over a steep drop-off and accidentally dropped off-broken wrist.

    A few years ago was in a pretty serious car accident-woman ran a stopsign and I t-boned her at 65, ouch-long recovery…

  • I inhaled a carrot piece at lunch one afternoon and it lodged in my lung.

    Well, there was all the post-pregnancy damage, I suppose, but I won’t go there….

  • closing the window fast where the index finger meets the thumb. yea, it cut it half. eeehk

  • It’s so tempting to write something like, “They had to sew my head back on.”

    But, no (knock on wood) nothing really bad has ever befallen me. Broken toe and broken heart, that’s about it.

  • I was running in the dark as a kid and hit a low washline and it broke my collarbone.

    I also broke one of my collarbones twice before that when I was younger.

    I also broke my leg when I was in 5th (?) grade.

    I’m a really safety oriented guy now.

  • radical orchioectomy.

  • The most “serious” injury I ever received wasn’t even that bad. Just a gash in my arm that needed 11 stitches after I plummeted off my friend’s pool deck.

  • Shattered leg ski-ing, that then had to be re-broken because it was not healing correctly.  Followed by six weeks in traction and a year in a full length cast, six months in a half cast and then a leg brace for about a year after that.

  • Depression.

    Or when I ran into a glass door (I was nine, shut up) because someone told me there was a huge turtle outside and I swear I pushed the handle, but it didn’t open. A large shard fell into my wrist. Had it gone less than half a cm deeper, I could have bled to death.

  • Oh yeah.
    A very large construction pole slammed into my eye when I was three. No visible scar except one very small line of my eyebrow is missing. People tend to think I just plucked it on accident.

    I’ve also been slammed into water from thirteen feet in the air, I have no idea how many mph the boat was going… I don’t remember being in the air. My head hurt for days afterward.

    Oh, my second step mom shut my fingers in the trunk once. They turned purple for a while.

  • Oh, and a softball to the eye.
    Despite how “softball” sounds, it is definitely not soft.

  • Infection from my TB shot…I was sick for 4 months

  • When I hit my knee on a gard rall it hurt and i brused my knee and it kracked evertime I bended it
