Broken finger

Recommended Posts

Well, Dad and I were tossing the football around yesterday afternoon and I ended up breaking my left ring finger trying to make a catch. It's in a brace for the next 6 weeks and I may even need surgery which, because of all the heart stuff going on, wouldn't be good for me right now. Toe, hand...finger...why do I have to break the stupid bones? :D Why couldn't it be something macho? I mean...sure I've had multiple heart surgeries...:D

buckee is right, it's a macho break.

Believe it or not, I had a friend who broke his index finger removing a sock from his foot.

I didn't believe it because I had never seen anyone remove their socks by slipping their index finger in the top and giving it a downward pull. Now he had his finger in a cast and demonstrated how he removed his socks, and darned if he didn't break his second finger the same way. Ended up with both fingers splinted together for two months or more. Of course he was almost ninety years old, but his was not considered a macho break by anyone's standards.

Hope you heal quickly.
