I wasn’t paying attention and walked off of a curb full speed. The fall was hard, but I remember it happening in slow motion. I just said to myself “turn and roll”.
I did. My left hand protected my face. The right helped with the roll. Unfortunately, I had to drive myself to the hospital. Both wrists were broken. The left required surgery. There’s a titanium plate in there now.
My occupational therapist was funny. She knows I do a lot of martial arts. After I told her what happened, she said, “You should’ve lied to me. You need a better story.” 😂

@Adogslife I don't know what to say other than wow!

@mangomonkey The pain from the injury and surgery wasn’t bad. It only sucked if something required two hands, like going to the bathroom. You’ve just got to take the pain.
All was healed and better than new within 2-3 months. At that point, I could even hit a heavy bag.
