Dodge This

My brother and I were playing football like usual but then it started to rain so we came inside. After a while we decided that dodgeball sounded fun so we played for a while then it happened.
He through a ball at my feet. I tried to jump it but I landed on the ball and then slammed my elbow into the ground. l little did I know the severity of my injury. 


After icing it I couldn't move it. I realized I did something terrible. I told my parents and they took me to the hospital. After a night at the hospital they said I dislocated it and they couldn't put it back in. First I was in a cast for a week. Then I was in a sling for about two months. It was a pain because I couldn't do sports or lots of other things without trouble. It also made me miss a week or two of school so lots of homework as well

My family had to spend lots of money to pay for my hospital stay. They also had to help me with everyday task like brushing my teeth and had to do my chores which wasn’t bad for me. But for them a pain so I felt bad for a while. After that experience I learned that I should really think things through instead of just diving right in and hoping for the best.
