My grade 7 class took a trip to Camp Sarradaca, and there is a forest of trees around. My teacher said… “now class, DON’T CLIMB THE TREES”!!!! Of course, I never listened and I PAID THE HUGE PRICE! A hairline fracture.

Haha, ya. I have never had to wear a cast, but sometimes envied those that did. On that note, I tried to find the history behind where signing casts started and I had no luck…. 🙁

Of course, I had given no thought to the pain and expense that went with it. I could only think of how cool it was to have a cast signed by everyone you knew.

That was a plaster cast and it wasn’t just my wrist but the whole forearm. Damn thing itched bad and all I could do was whack the cast for some relief. Can’t recall how long I had the cast but since then I’ve been very careful….lol!
