RIDING WITH WRIST IN A CAST

["Celeste Murray" <celestem@badgermining.co.za>]

I also last had a cast on at the age of 8 or 9. I broke my arm by trying to
swing upside down with my legs over the tree branch, my legs were a bit
short and I headed straight for the ground. Well it was the longest six
weeks of my young life and I couldn't wait for the plaster to come off.
We got home from the clinic after the six weeks, my mom went inside and I
headed straight for the tree....well you can all guess what happened! I
spend another six weeks with my arm in a cast, when we got home this time my
mom took me straight inside and kept me there for the next few days :-)
Let me tell you my mom was madder than what your mom could have ever been
