I had been in gymnastics for 3 years before the incident. I loved it and it was always really fun for me. My favorite part of practice was going on the trampolines. I had always been afraid of the bars, especially when we had to stand up on the smaller one and jump to the bigger one, I always thought I was going to get hurt. I went to practice one day and I had to go on the tumble track. I ran across it and did a front flip off the end of it and when I landed I ended up breaking my arm. When I looked down at it I couldn't believe it, it felt like I was dreaming. I remember I screamed, not because it hurt but because of the way it looked. Everyone in the room was staring at me wondering what happened. My dad arrived and said he could hear me crying from outside the building. He took me to the hospital and that's all I really remember from that day. That one incident had changed my life. After those long months had ended, I was finally able to go back to practice. I was most excited to get back on the trampoline and see if I could still do the things I used to be able to do. Once I arrived I practiced on the floor, the bars, and the beam. Everything seemed to be going …show more content…
Although it was hard for me to watch all my friends and family play outside without me, and to not be able to go to the fair that year, it taught me that we have the choice to either complain about it or make the most of it. I quickly realized that breaking my arm wasn't as bad as it seemed. I was still able to walk around and talk to my friends, I became more thankful for the things that I had. I realized that some people aren't able to walk or even move and that I actually had it easy. After I got my cast off and I was finally able to move it again, I wanted to do everything that I had missed out on but I also kept in mind how thankful I need to be for everything that I was able to
I don’t remember exactly how it felt when it first happened, but I do remember that right when I hit the solid concrete floor, I knew what had happened. Never again was I going to mess around with one of those skateboards, especially since I didn’t know exactly what I was doing. My head was spinning with confusion. I tried to stand up, except I fell right back down in even more pain. Everybody at camp was looking at me as I was crying, holding onto my leg as tight as I could.
We went up the hill for a couple of more runs, and just like you already know we got on the chairlift and put on our bindings once we got off. We went all the way to the right side of the hill and carved down the soft snow. While I was going down, my board hit a small ice ball and my board caught an edge and I landed hard on my butt.
Not only did I fall on the concrete but I burned my knee on the back wheel of the bike. Regardless of my battle scars the whole idea was very
Unable to straighten my leg I became very panicked but my coach assured me that I would be ok. Little did he know that it was going to be a life altering injury. The next day I went to my doctor’s office to get my knee checked out (I was still worried because my knee was still
Last year was the hardest year ever for me, to hear a call saying my mother had cancer was scary. I knew she would beat it because she’s strong and I knew that it hurted her but she never showed it. Me being the daughter of my mother I knew i had to be strong for her, she always told me to “walk by faith and not by sight” so although the doctors said one thing I knew God had other plans.
Anyone who knows me knows that I used to be a gymnast, and that I was absolutely crazy about the sport. I started doing gymnastics at the age of three, which was too young to be in kindergarten but not too early to start gymnastics. Fast forward six years, and my coaches invited me to start doing gymnastics competitively. It took six years of involvement in the sport for me to finally earn a spot on the competitive team. Being one of the older girls, I always had the responsibility to act in a correct way for the younger girls, because they looked up to me and they wanted to be like me one day, and I had to set the example of the appropriate way to act.
I couldn’t believe that all this time, I had a blown knee. After I hung up my mom, I went into a stage of hating myself for screwing up everything. It was an unplanned surprise that I didn’t want to face. I finally told my friends about it and they were as shocked as I was because I was able to do the same things that they were
I've learned to do flips and drops and many other tricks. All was good until what happened one day at the end of my 8th grade school year. At the end of the year I was required to make a research project. We were in groups of either three or four.
We got to the hospital and had a doctor check up on me. While the doctor was looking at my ankle I called my parents to let them know that I was in the hospital for an ankle injury. He informed me that I had fractured my ankle, but that the fracture wasn't serious enough for surgery and that I would be wearing a cast for a couple of months. I learned a couple of things from this incident, one being to not jump out of a vehicle while it's moving. The other thing that I learned was that I need to think before I make rash decisions that could potentially harm me, that I should try to not act on
My ACL Tear Journey At The Hospital A quick turn on a soccer field led me to the worst experience in my life. A while back in my sophomore year I tore my ACL while I was practicing for my first soccer game of the school year. I made a quick turn without positioning my feet correctly on the ground. I thought that I broke my knee, but I never knew that after that day I would have experienced the worst day a month after on February 15th.
My life I am sixteen years old photographer in Thailand. And I have portfolio with Hasselblad company. I have many dreams such as I want to travel around the world and take a picture everyplace I will go. Sports are my favorite activities. Sometime when I have free times I will play football.
Somehow my sister and brother sped away from me and were already at the park, and their friends were there, but not any of mine were there. So I went on the spinny thing and fell off!! I fell pretty hard to. So after I fell off
Growing older the similar feeling occured when being suspended high up in the air. I hope for one day to overcome this fear. The opportunity finally revealed itself in the summer of 2017. I would soon change my perspective. It was just a couple days after school had ended for the year.
The forty-two day stay. “ Please Mom make it stop…” “ There there dear, It’ll be okay…” “ How do you know mom, it hurts so bad…” “ Trust me, you’ll be okay,
Then I took the Ollie down to curbs, stairs, and ledges and learned other flip
