My husband broke his leg playing Rugby one Boxing Day years ago, my elder daughter broke a finger playing netball, my son broke both his front teeth skateboarding and dislocated his hip playing football, my younger daughter broke her ankle when she stumbled in a pothole on an unmade road. My grandson broke his collar-bone when he fell over their dog when he was 4 then broke his arm when he fell off a climbing frame in a pub garden. My mother broke her leg when she missed the bottom stair in her house, my dad broke both arms jumping a back-yard gate when he was a little boy (about 1915) and my eldest brother broke a leg playing football in the army (National Service).
So far my granddaughter and I are unique. We are still in one piece.
