Ah, lucky you :) Was the on your bike? Did you make a post about it on here?
Sounds a bit like my daughter. And she was 5 last month. 5 is pretty young to be climbing trees :) So long as you have fun breaking things it's ok ;)
Can't remember if I posted but yes, on my bike. Have since dislocated the other shoulder too, which eventually turned into more of a problem actually. Bah.
Oh I had a lot of fun. We lived near a small patch of woods back then, and there was a stream running through them. I can remember coming home and my Grandmother hosing me off in the backyard, while telling me..."You're a little girl! You're not supposed to look or smell like that!"
My Mother would just start laughing and tell her it takes a lot of dirt to make a pretty flower grow.
There were days I came home so cruddy she hung up a couple tarps and made me strip in the back yard, then hosed me off before she'd let me in the house. lol
I was NOT a Barbie-Play House kind of girl. Drove my Grandmother nuts. lol
Hope she's ok for your holiday, sounds like she got off lightly considering how she fell!
I broke my wrist when I was about 8, walking to school on a winter's day. I slipped on some ice and my (then considerable) bulk went down on my wrist. I got through the school day not thinking much about it, but it was hugely swollen come home time, so we went to A&E and I had a cast on for a month.
I fractured my other wrist about 8 years ago coming off my bike; I was out riding and took a corner too quick on a gravel road, the tyres didn't get any purchase and I slid off into a wall. I had a huge bruise on my leg that covered all my shin. :)
I've also had various cracked ribs from karate and my nose busted once or twice, but no breaks. Still hurts like feck though.
Oscar broke his arm toboganning down the stairs on a tea tray. Idiot child.
Something about fruit and trees springs to mind...
Haha, awesome. I'm not sure I ever tried a tea tray but I definitely used to used things to slide down the stairs. Luckily didnt break anything doing it.
The clues were there, Mr B & Chrisss. Straight flight of stairs ending with a square of floor and a wall
Hope she's better for the holiday!
Fractures are essentially small breaks, right?
I fractured my left shoulder at school while pro-wrestling in the playground (on grass) and fractured my right elbow about a year later playing football on concrete.
Both times I carried on and didn't go to the hospital until after i'd got home.
Think I broke my right hand about 5/6 years ago punching a patio door. Never had it checked out but feel pain sometimes in the cold.
