So its spring break and i'm confined to the house. It hasn't been so bad at school with a broken arm, because its not like im missing anything. (except skiing on the weekends) grr. so anyways, i cant do anything for another 2 1/2 weeks. What sucks even more, is the fact that i feel like i could do anything i could before, but doc. says i cant.

Hopefully it will be all worth it when i hop back on my skis/bike.

Tell me about it. I had an operation on my collar bone that has put me out for around 3 months and around another 3 to go. :(

well... I just went back to the doctor today hoping for some good news. But now im actually out for another 4-5 weeks, because the break is on the growth plain (plane?) and if i fall again, it will break, and it will be messed up even worse then.

word, klazo knows what's up.

I broke the growth plate in my pinky finger in 8th grade.... I now have one pinky finger that is the size of my 19 year old body, and one pinky the size of my 14 year old body...

not that big of a deal since it's just a finger, but that shit in your arm... no bueno!

My cousin races dirt bikes and when he was 12 broke his growth plate in his arm and the doctors didn't realize it. When he was 15, the arm that didn't break was growing with his body and the other arm wasn't. The broken arm was 3 inches shorter than the other and he had to have surgery to put this thing in his arm and he would have to turn this crank to manually stretch the bone out back to the regular size.
