I got hit by a car at about age eight. Bruised my entire right side. Hurt to walk, and I had road rash all over my face. Lucky me, no broken bones.
Later that year I was knocking on a window in my neighbors playhouse & my arm broke through the cheap glass. I sliced my forearm open when I pulled my arm back. 10 stitches.
I was in a huge tire swing, age 9, seeing how high I could go when the rope snapped. I went flying. Knocked myself out.
About age 23 I was chasing my daughter (I was barefoot) through the front yard. She stopped & I caught myself so as not to slam into her. You could hear the bone in my baby toe snap.
Last year I was stepping over my bowflex, and smacked the same baby toe, broke it at a different angle. 1 month later I nearly amputated my other baby toe on a sheet of metal (long story). Then soon after that I impaled my thigh with a huge nail ripping down my old deck. Went in about two inches. Took a long time to heal.
Basically, I'm a klutz.
