Ouch! Luis broke his wrist in April. The left one. How did he do this? By roller-blading without wrist protection. I'm reliably informed that this is a very common accident in the world of roller-blading and skating. That and bust shoulder blades. After a life time's wait at the hospital he came away with a fibre-glass cast in a fetching blue (see picture). He has since had this removed and is on the mend, thankfully. Actually, he was rather brave about the whole thing and seems to have adjusted well to life with one working hand. That's ma boy!
There have also been known to be a few broken ankles from skateboarding. Give it up and read more instead. Exercise is over rated.
