Yeah, I was a little clumsy as a kid and loved active sports (still do). I grew very tall at a young age. I like to say it just took me a while to grow into my legs. :p

I broke my nose playing softball in 7th grade.

The only stiches I had were to have a growth removed from my leg. That came off just before I started college, and people asked me if I got in a knife fight!

I broke my wrist when I was almost 12, I was swimming in my friends pool and I don't rmember exactly what happened but we both fell out, and I ended up breaking my wrist:rolleyes: It's kind of a ridiculous story. It still hurts sometimes though and it's been quite a few years since I did that.

I've sprained my wrist but didn't need anything but a sling for a few weeks. I cracked my head open when someone bumped a wooden beam while I was on stage for a play and the set collapsed on me and I had an ambulence ride for my first and only time (so far.) Thats pretty much the worst thats happened to me, nothing too bad.

I had surgury for one of my miscarriages. Broke some toes and a thumb once, but couldn't get them fixed, I was pregnant with Jaden. May of last year I had my shoulder surgury. That was pretty extensive. I had a torn rotator cuff, ligaments, muscles, nerves, and some bone spurs. It sucked worse then childbirth and my shoulder still hurts all the time.

never broken a bone & never had surgery....

.....thank god too! :p

I've had these, too.

Also had another surgery along with those that NO ONE wants to hear about. :o

Prior to all of that I had laprascopic surgery, when they thought it was going to be as simple as removing a benign tumor from my ovary. Didn't quite work out that way. :rolleyes:

Had my wisdom teeth out, and stiches in my eyebrow when I crashed and burned at the skating rink. It was gnarly; blood was EVERYWHERE! :p :D

I've never broken a bone, but I've had a broken nose. Ouch!

I have had very little surgery and I want to keep it that way, had my Tonsils removed as a child and some oral surgery for tooth removal and that is it so far, fingers crossed it stays this way.;)

Ohh enough for my age.

I had a heart murmer when I was small...not sure how old.*Surgery

Then...dog bite, left arm, stitches.

Some sort of thing in my eye was removed..can't remember what, cyst I think? *Sugery

Broke my arm....*Surgery

Broke my arm again....

And maybe 1 or 2 more things...can't remember!

I guess everyone at PT (and the immediate world) knows that I'm recovering from knee replacement surgery.I have a frankenstein type scar running down the middle of my left knee about six inches long. As a kid, I was playing in the woods an I climed on top of a log. slipped off and fractured my left arm.

For luck I havent had any surgery and I hope I wont...
When I was about 6 years old I broke my leg.. I dont remember much of it :D

Glacier I am glad you weren't my daughter!! LOL! When I was about 4 years old I broke my left arm. I was riding my cousin's three wheeler down a steep incline and three wheelers don't have brakes. It turned over and I landed on my arm. :eek: Have given birth twice (the normal way - no C sections) and had a D & E after a miscarriage. Had my wisdom teeth taken out in the oral surgeon's office with IV medication that put me in LaLa land. :) All in all, not very exciting.

I've had laprascopic surgery to remove a cyst that was about to rupture my ovary. When they went in, they also found out that I had Endometreosis and a benign tumor on my other ovary.
And I've had my wisdom teeth out at the oral surgen.
Those are the only surgeries.

As for broken bones...

*Right thumb twice
*Left thumb once
*Two fingers on my right hand
(I was the catcher on my highschool softball team)

*Right foot once, in highschool doing a cartwheel
*Right elbow falling off a desk in school

*Left foot and little toe falling down steps when I had to much to drink:o (it didn't hurt till the next morning)

*My right shin falling UP steps

I didn't break my ankle, but sprained it VERY bad when I fell in my driveway wearing a pair of very heavy/chunky shoes that my hubby told me not to buy :o

The nickname my family has given me is Grace!!!:D

Amy broke my tail bone when she was born. The dr. said it probably had been broken sometime before that and healed in the wrong direction. It made a very loud noise in the delivery room! I thought the rubber ring they gave me to sit on was something all new mothers got to sit on because of the stitches! :D

I had my gall bladder out the old fashion way when Amy was 2 and Rob 3 months. Now I have a long scar diagonally across my stomach.

I also had a hysterectomy and a few years later an ovary removed and a cyst from the other ovary.
