In my youth I was fairly resilient, requiring little more than routine maintenance. As I reached my early thirties though, stopping objects with my head and bouncing off the surface of the earth began to hurt. And the body began to show signs of the miles it had traveled.
I lost count around 125 stitches above my hairline, hope I never go bald! I fractured my left xygomatic arch (it's a small bone by the eye socket) and that was surgically repaired, had stiches in the outer corners of both my eyes, broke my nose several times, I had bi-lateral inguinal hernia repairs, but not simultaneous, bi-lateral ACL tears, again on seperate occasions. I currently have a torn rotator that I keep putting off getting fixed. I had six teeth pulled in one day. I've broken my ankles, a wrist and an arm But by far the most invasive thing ever done to me was a colonoscopy! Whose bright idea was it to shove a camera up peoples asses!!!
