You broke your toe at beach volleyball?! oh well, hope u get well soon :-).

and then ur skin comes peeling off... eew
|
You're screwed... I broke my toe, and every time that is seems like it is about to heal (like after a month or two) I always manage to rebreak it.
I never went to the hospital for broken appendages though, perhaps I really should have for my broken hand but I didn't have health insurance (yes Canada has free health insurance but you have to sign up for it and I was put in weird situation with just moving to dif province and my insurance just ran out in old province and I had to wait x months etc etc)

I broke my back once snowboarding.
Save for maybe the skull, I think the back is about as hardcore as you can get without dying.
Amazingly I'm not paralyzed, and it all healed fine.

Speaking of broken body parts, reminded me of a time in my childhood.
When i was in grade 1, i was playing outside in the schoolyard on Royston's (my elementary) Jungle Gym. During a game of some sort of tag (don't really remember WHAT game i was playing) i was trying to speedily move across some monkey bars... well, i missed the bar and came crashing down on my left arm. That was the first of my injuries. I had a 3" hairline fracture.
7 months later, 4 or 5 before school was out, i was again playing on the allmighty monkey bars, but this time, i was playing a game of Chicken. (i don't know if this game was limited to my school or what, but it has alot of names; you hang from the monkey bars while gripping the other person with your legs - u try to either pull them off the monkey bars, or get them to say uncle[or any other word the 2 competitors agree to before the match]) Strangling Kyle Kidder, (my THEN best friend) i managed to pull an 'uncle' from his mouth. He really doesn't like to lose, i figured out, as he kicked me in the groin. I came tumbling off the monkey bars and landed on my right ankle. I was on my mini-crutches for 3 weeks.
Grade 2, a new year; crossing my fingers for no injuries this time. September passes, and im injury free (except for maybe a stubbed toe or 2). October passes, and i still i remain intact and whole. November, December, and the months through to May pass, and i finally run out of luck. But this time i wasn't anywhere close to monkey bars. I got hit by a utility trailer.
Ok, so maybe _i_ didn't get hit by the Utility trailer... i mean, it WAS parked, so i guess it would be more accurate to say im the one who hit _it_. regardless, i had to take a trip to the hospital to close the raging gap in my scalp, consuming 18 stitches. (just wanted to add that my bitch of a gr.2 teacher wouldnt let me wear a hat indoors to cover up my bandages. she said it was rude, disrespectful, and unfair to the other students. It wasn't a big deal, but i was all ready called a freak by many of my peers, i didn't need any help from a head-encompasing bandage).
Gr.3 rolls around and on the 2nd day of school, im at my favourite hangout. The monkey bars. By this time i had discovered how to do flips off of them, (i don't know if any of u have had this experience, but u sit sideways on the monkey bars so that ur legs are parallel with the crossing bars. u tuck ur feet under the opposite ledge, and then u lean backwards. u continue doing so until ur legs can no longer bend, and then u release them, flipping and landing on ur feet) and was flaunting my fantastic feat. Showing off only works when u can perform flawlessly, and flawless is not how i would describe the last flip i ever made on monkey bars. i don't know exactly *where* i went wrong, but instead of landing on 2 feet, i landed on 1 arm. It broke.
Speedy recovery occured (as speedy as a broken bone can heal i guess, i was in a cast for at least a month) and i was back on the monkey bars. It was at this time that the rest of my family conceded that i was alergic to monkey bars - something my mom had voiced 2 years earlier. During a game of 'Catch Me' (Please back off on my use of brackets, some things just need explaining, ok?. This game was one for the big boys. a game of stakes. One person challenges another for a game of 'Catch Me'. The challengee gets to choose to be 'it' or 'running from it', and a referee (usually a girl, as they usually preferred to watch) stands to the side with a stop watch set for 2 minutes. The 'running from it' then has those 2 minutes to avoid being tagged from 'it'. Whoever won the game also won the other persons #Mr.Noodles.) Being that i had always prided myself on my speed when i was younger, - as in the age before i became overweight - i opted to be 'running from it'. To make this long story a bit shorter, i tried to run on TOP of the monkey bars, and *gasp* i fell off. I was in crutches for the 2nd time.
Returning to school 2 days after my incident, (which is the whole point of my story by the way), i was presented by my class an award named 'Bandaid Star'. Being that i had broken in one way or another all 5 of my extremities - both legs, both arms, and my head - i had made myself into a broken star. (if one were to point their limbs straight out, they would make a star-shape) The award had a golden star in the top left with a person sketched over it. She said that 'broken star' sounded too negative, so at the top it said "Bandaid Star". Below the title was a statement signed by my teacher, principal, vice principal, and school nurse, 'requesting' that i never touch monkey bars again. (i say request in quotes because i was actually BANNED from them. all the lunch-time monitors were told to prevent me from going on monkey bars)
Anyways, thats my story. When i get a scanner i'll make sure to dig out that award and scan it; it's quite pretty *_*.
# - Mr.Noodles were the rave in grade 3. the actual deal was that u could pick any item from ur opponents lunch, but no one picked ANY item, they picked Mr.Noodles. Raw, crunchy, and so-so-so salty. yum. (for those of u who live in a place where mr.noodles are called by another name: Cup-A-Noodle, Ramen Noodles, Noodles-in-5, i don't know any others)
