guess what people!!! i broke my leg!!! haha... this is very exciting... rem i said i sprained my ankle in my last entry? well... it wasnt a sprain, but a fracture! its more than a hairline fracture i would say, about 3/4 the way through.
and just the other day i was expressing my sentiment of needing to break a bone once in my lifetime. well, its certainly a pain, in all senses of the word, but well... something i feel that everyone has to experience.
reason why i went to the doc today was cos my toes were turning black... for some strange reason... apparently the blood clots all over the place lah.
great. so that means ive been walking around with a broken leg for a few days man... [ okok... i noe break is very inaccurate, esp to those in the know... but well. layman's blog here k? ] my dad told me his horror story... the doc just bandaged his leg, so he was still walking around and driving and all that, 6weeks later, said he decided to see a specialist, found he needed an operation. why? because the bone is coated with a substance like well... nail varnish. so some seeped into the crack. this meant the the cells in the bone couldnt fuse together, so he had a permanent crack. what they had to do, was scrape the stuff out of the crack and see if the broken off bit was still alive. apparently, bones are like... well... muscles, they can die too. so, the worst case scenario was that the docs had to use some of his hip to replace the dead bit of bone, if it was dead... imagine... the pain... bone pain hurts more than skin pain... really.
after the op, my dad had a couple of holes in his bone... and a screw. and he said it hurt so bad that he had to survive on morphine shots. and if he says its painful, it really is painful. he can really tolerate pain... i guess i can too, unless i drama... haha... so, i guess high pain thresholds run in the family eh?

anyway, other than that, i have cut my hair... pretty much off. haha... its... short! yay... so much so that i have to gel it and little hairs stick up from the top of my head. haha... its quite fun.
whee~ life is interesting.
