    Have you ever broke a bone?

    I havn't, but I was wondering how many on here have.
    I know there are so many that are lucky. If you did how did it happen?

    No, and I don't plan on it.

    My friend broke one because of her dog. Blame the dog !

    I broke my pinkie toe on my left foot about 6 years ago, kicking the corner of a wall I was angry at my then boyfriend and for some reason kicked the wall, then went & got in the shower. Half way through the shower my foot was throbbing, got out, my toe was swelled up twice it's size Went in to the dr's and needless to say there's nothing they can do about a broken toe... Boy did it hurt for awhile though.

    No more broken bones for me *Knocks on wood*

    I broke my wrist when I was 11. I was at a former friend's house and we were in her pool, I'm not sure what we were doing but I fell out over the edge somehow onto a bunch of rocks and pavement and ended up breaking my wrist.

    I have never broken a bone. I have had a hole cut in a bone (my skull) for surgery, but that was intentional, controlled, and done by professionals!

    The only time I've broken a bone was my collar bone when I was at recess in second grade. I was learning how to hang from my knees from a bar and fell. =S

    Oh, so many! I broke my leg when I was five. My big brother and I had been flying a kite on the garage roof, something we did all the time. It was early spring and all winter we had jumped down and landed in a snow pile. Lance, who is 10 years older, made the jump. I missed what was left of the snow pile and hit my swingset instead.

    When I was 8, I shattered my right arm. It's still crooked. I broke my forearm, my upper arm and the elbow joint. The only way the docs could give me any motion in the elbow was to set it at an angle. It's only noticeable when I hold my arm out straight. I do have a full range of motion which is much more important than the little angle!

    I've broken all my fingers at least once. Some of them repeatedly. Playing baseball, football, skiing, and once while trying to slam my sister's head in a car door(didn't get much sympathy from Mom for that one!)

    Last broken bone was my toes on my left foot about 8 years ago. I got up in the middle of the night and on my way back to bed I kicked the bed post. When I turned on the light, screaming, I could see the bottoms of all my small toes on that foot! It was disgusting and required an immediate trip to the ER!

    I did sprain my wrist badly over 2 years ago(Dragging behind the dog team). My doc says I would have been better off if I had broken it. A break would have healed a long time ago, the severity of the sprain has left me with wrist pain that is likely permanent.
