The Scariest Injury Of My Life
With the crowd cheering in my head It was a tie game 20-20, I felt like I was in the NBA championship game 7. Jake shot a 3 pointer to win,but it hit the back of the red, shiny rim. I could hear the fans in my mind cheering for me. CRACK! “OW”
“I stepped on the broken glass of the light.”
I tried to walk,but it hurt too bad.Then I looked at my foot it was all bloody and it looked like the outside of a red apple.”There is glass in my foot!”
I felt like I was in a war and I was wounded in a big war.
So I ran downstairs and told my mom.”Mom can you help me?”
“I’m in really bad pain!”
“Yes,but how did you get hurt?”
I stepped on the broken glass of the light.”
Then my brother called my dad to come home quickly from the gym.As we were trying to stop the bleeding my dad came home.”What happened to Cam?”
“I stepped on the broken glass of the light.”
Then my dad had a idea to use tweezers and pull the glass right out of my foot!I didn’t want them to do it, but it was the only way.This time I was so scared and nervous. Everyone here had a job.My brother got thick, long paper towels so the blood wouldn’t get on the carpet,my dad was holding my foot still,and my mom was pulling out the glass.As soon as I wanted this to be over, my mom quickly said,”1,2,3!!”
I was holding in the loudest scream I could ever do.
My mom pulled it right out and put big, thick bandages and wrapped them around my foot. ”Do you feel better?”
“My foot still hurts, but besides that yes.”
I tried walking,but my foot felt like the glass was still in there with the bandages on my foot.So I took off the bandages and tried with nothing. For that I felt like I just finished running a 30 mile race.Then I tried putting bandage tape around my cut and this felt good.
“Mom can we try something else for my cut?”
This felt bad because it was getting in my foot.”Why does it hurt?”
“Because it’s irritating my cut badly!”
“Cam I don’t know what to say there is nothing else to do.”
So I got all of the bandage tape off. Then I just hopped on one foot for a few days,but I need a break every 5 or 10 minutes.Everyday I was bored because I couldn’t go outside or play with my friends.”Mom can I please go to Noah’s house to play?”
“Fine.” She said with exhausting
So I got on my shoes got in my mom’s car and went to play with Noah! As I got to the front door I rang the doorbell.”Hey!” Noah’s mom said.
Next, I walked in and saw Noah watching so Spongebob. Of course I joined.”Who lives In a pineapple under the sea?”
“Spongebob Squarepants!”
We started talking and having lots of fun together I forgot all about my cut! After two episodes of Spongebob,we decided to go on his big,thick trampoline.We played very intense soccer with a mini basketball,and I had lots of fun.I still didn’t think of my cut,but I still had the most fun I ever had with a friend.Then I went home and took a break and just sat on my couch and went to sleep. “Hey Cam do you want to play mini basketball? ”My brother said sarcastically thinking I would say no.
I was thinking of saying no,but there was nothing else to break in his room.”Yea sure!”
With the game close 20-18, I was l was losing,I shot a three pointer for the win. SWISH! I beat my brother!”Yessssss I win!”
I felt like now I made the winning shot for the NBA championship game 7! This was the best moment ever! After losing more than 30 times in a row I finally beat my big, humongas brother! I felt like I would win $1,000,000 for beating someone that’s more than 10 inches bigger than me!He also can dunk standing up!This was the most fun I’ve ever had,even though I got hurt! This was a really tough week for me, but I realized that my friends and family will be there for me,and can help me get through tough times.
