Funny story really...... We were having a sleep over for my sister and I was standing on one leg take off my shoes. Well, i had a problem with the tendons in my right leg where they pulled my knee cap off track and at that moment my knee dislocated. I fell VERY hard twisting my leg badly. You can't make that up!

Funnier story: my mom refused to believe me when I told her I thought it might be broken. She insisted i pulled a muscle or sprained my knee. Told me to walk it off. Finally after about 25 minutes we go to the ER. I WALK to the car, WALK from the car to the hospital and even the doctor didn't believe me. After they took xrays we could hear them looking at them outside of the room. We heard him say as quietly as he could " well I'll be darned" (he didn't use darn ;) )
Weren't you in terrible pain? When my daughter dislocated her knee, she screamed the entire way to the ER.

My son broke his femur aged about 7. He fell off his bike one evening. I also didn't think he'd broken it and put him to bed. It was only when he obviously wasn't any better next day that we took him to hospital :redface:
That happened to me when I broke my arm. I went to school the next day and told the teacher I couldn't write because my arm hurt. She didn't believe me and thought I was just trying to get out of schoolwork. She was shocked and embarrassed when I showed up the next day with a cast.

Oh and I spy... Change the lily to a Pot Plant in your house. Translated into US English this has nothing to do with drugs and everything to do with a plant grown indoors in a pot rather than outside in your garden.
Though technically the other sort of pot plant in a pot would get the points.
