    Have you ever broken a bone?

    Just wondering if anyone here has ever broken anything. I've never had a broken bone and while I don't ever want one, I sometimes wonder what it feels like. People talk about it like it's nothing.

    So, what have you broken?

    I broke my wrist when I was 11, I was at my friends house in her pool and I don't know what we were doing exactly but suddenly the pool collapsed and we both fell out into a bunch of rocks and I landed on my wrist and broke it. It hurt a lot! To this day it still bothers me, I'm not sure why but the doctor said it will probably be sore for the rest of my life and when I'm old it might get to the point where I won't be able to use it at all...

    Never broken anything! And I hope I never won't!! My brother-in-law broke a leg in 3 places in January , and it still isn't cured yet!! My mom broke her shoulder last year, and it was VERY painful, as you cannot put a shoulder into a cast

    I've broken three bones! My left leg when I was 2 1/2. My brother talked me into climbing on a bookcase to see out the window! When I was 7 I broke my left arm while 'ice skating' on our patio! And when I was 16 I broke my left collarbone. My hubby (then boyfriend) pushed me down a hill curled up in an intertube! I do remember the last two and let me tell you, it hurts!
    Now I've moved on to pulling, straining and spraining things instead. Doesn't hurt quite as bad, but takes longer to heal!

    I broke my nose when I was in 7th grade. I was pitching a softball game, and the ball came right back at me and smacked me in the face!! Nose looked fine, but I looked like a racoon for a week!!

    I've broken many toes..

    Both of the large bones in my right arm, as well as chipped the little circle bones in my wrist.

    It hurt like heck. It felt fine when I had a cast on and drugs!
    My wrist still hurts a lot.. 5 or so years later. I get sharp pulsing pains in it every now and then to the point where I can't use it comfortably.

    Lots!

    Broken right arm.
    Crushed left arm (you can still feel the indentation).
    Broken ribs.
    Fractured vertebraes.
    Fractured tailbone.

    Well, that's it . . . but that's enough!

    I might be the reason why McDonalds took out all their teacup rides ((where you all sit in a circle twisting a steering wheel around to make you spin))

    When I was 4 and our family was on the way to new jersey we took a break at a Mcdonalds for dinner, my older sister, younger brother, and cousin wouldnt stop teasing me and refusing to allow me to get on, so I ran at it attempting to jump on while it was moving, slid under the moving teacup ride and broke my wrist and collarbone.

    I didn't realize until a few years later that Mcdonalds no longer had the teacup rides lol



    I broke my ankle and wrist ((again)) while skateboarding 3 years ago, at different times. Last week I badly sprained my left wrist to a half break just sleeping on it unknowingly all night! I guess it doesnt help that I don't drink milk or take calcium/vitamins

    Several broken bones

    My toes has been broken many of times. So many times that my baby toe has taken on a different size and shape. You think I'd learn to where shoes by now....not me. lol

    My whole foot, one time. My cow stepped on it and shattered it. OUCH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    My tail bone, slipping on some ice. They had to cut into me and reshape it. I carried a pillow with a hole in it for 2 months, just to be able to sit.

    My ankle, jumping off a boat, into what I though was deeper water.

    Just a month or so ago, I broke my ring finger. Rockey's fault. (long story) The finger still hurts if touched the wrong way, so I don't believe it healed right. Can't wear my ring now.

    And everyone hurt like H$%#. We might talk about it like it was nothing, but is was something........at least for me. Some worse then others, like the foot......I wanted to die with that one.
