When I was 5 I got hit by a Motorbike crossing the street after school, head hit a drive way and had stitches on the back of my head.

When I was 8, I was swinging on the monkey bars, tried skipping a bar but missed and broke my wrist. Have a 4 inch scar on my wrist.

When I was 10 I had an infected appendix so had to get that taken out, so now have a 6 inch scar on my stomach.

When I was 12 I was riding my bike with a friend and my wheel spoke got caught in his bike peg, I flip over the handles and busted my eyebrow and chin.

Since then I have been pain free.

Worst weekend of my life:

Saturday: At the gym with some friends playing basketball. Start fooling around and having a game on one of the little kid hoops in the corner. My friend comes driving at me and I'm getting ready to go up and block it but I had backed up too much and when I jumped up to swat it my head smashed in to the rim, right into one of the jagged parts.

Sunday: Giants win the Super Bowl...

Hmm...not sure if I can count how many I have had. Two of the three knee surgeries were arthroscopic, so no need for stitches; However, the patella tendon had to be butterflied up, so I had about 75 staple stitches in there.

Outside of that, I've actually needed a bunch more:

- I had ten in the right side of my temple after falling off my bike and catching the metal end of my handlebar into it (there's a little dimple on the side of my head, not even noticable). Was about 11 or so when that happened.

- I had about 25 in my right leg when I slipped off my bike and the bike peddle caught into the lower part of my calf, ripping the leg wide open (my mom said she saw the bone in my leg when I did it, but I lucked out and didn't have any muscle, tendon or ligament damage). I missed a few days of school after that one. I was six when that happened, and I was freaking out, as was everyone else in my family.

- I had about 15 in my right leg directly on my shin - I was about 3 years old when that happened, and to this day we have no idea how I did it. My sister and I were in the living room, and my mom was getting ready to go to work that night, and my sister just looked at my leg and screamed. Got patched up, never spoke of it again.

I have one scare that runs parallel with my jaw. I was five years old and it was Christmas time, so I was under the Christmas tree messing with the lights and ornaments. I made the mistake of crawling under the nearby recliner (where my dad was sitting), which was when my dad closed the recliner's legs on my head. A metal bar went into my head (again, just above, and parallel with the jawbone) and wha-la, now there's a big scar.

No stitches though. =D
I think we were too poor for stitches or something :/

I might need surgery on my pinkie because I may torn ligaments in it when it dislocated. Might get a stitch or two from that, but that'll have to wait until footballs over.

I've had a stick (about 1.5 feet long, maybe 2-3 inches around) thrown into my eye socket. Laughing

luckily the way it was thrown it missed my eye and didn't do any permadamage. But, the best part (to me) was that I covered my eye with my wrist/palm area and blood had been rushing out do fast that it squirted to the top of my hand.

I have a sideways nose, but I don't know how I broke it.

I've had multiple surgeries but for like tonsil removal and other stupid stuff. <3 morphine Very Happy
