A painting of me

My Leg, Feb 8th 2010

   21 February 2010, lunch time

This is what my leg looked like a few weeks ago. A car drove over my right leg. You can see where my Fibula and Tibia snapped. Now I have all sorts of metal under my skin holding everything together. It’s all kind of gross.

  3. I squirmed a little when I saw that.

    I need to show this to all my friends who took anatomy and see if they can remember what bones are broken.

  7. Ooh, that looks horrible! I broke my tib/fib too this past October. I know this is three years old, but I hope you’ve healed fully :)

  8. I am in fact healthy! Thanks. Well, more or less. I probably should have done more pyhsio after I got my cast off, like I was supposed to. Oh well.

Don't be shy, you can comment too!

 
Some things to keep in mind: You can style comments using Textile. In particular, *text* will get turned into text and _text_ will get turned into text. You can post a link using the command "linktext":link, so something like "google":http://www.google.com will get turned in to google. I may erase off-topic comments, or edit poorly formatted comments; I do this very rarely.
