    1 month or so into my training I got my humorous bone snapped in an Americana… By the head instructor of an MMA gym… that was much bigger than me. Bad enough for you? At least I’m still training.

I was pretty sweaty from rolling for an hour and a half and the kid went to pass my guard and knee sliced me. I T-Rex'd my arms because big guys land on my chest all of the time and my ribs are constantly bruised...anyway, my right arm slipped, elbow got caught on the mat...wrist bent backwards. Sounded like a twig snapping in half. My radius was sticking out of my arm...I screamed like a maniac...all modesty went right out the window. In a panic I grabbed the bone that was jutting out of my arm and pushed it back in...setting it myself. VJ literally picked me up and took me to the ER...ended up fracturing that and my ulna. Good thing it was a clean break. Still hurts...can't do regular pushups, have to do them on my knuckles. sucks.
    Yeah Meg, I remember reading about that on Facebook. You were about to go to worlds and/or HQ at about that time too right? That stinks; I can’t believe other people are complaining about getting tapped in class, regardless of rank.

    Wait...you pushed your bone back in? I cant even imagine the pain...

    I cant say I have a horror story ,still a little young in Jiu Jutsu ,but I have by accident of course popped an opponents elbow or shoulder on 3 occasions and I today still cringe at sounds similar to that popping and cracking.
