    I got hit by a car when I was twelve and had an open compound fracture of the femur. Got flown to Children's Hospital in a helicopter.

    No, not at all, I was young enough to recover 100%. The Doctor said that one is actually stronger than the other one.


    Actually, I have a problem that derived from it, the way they let the bone heal back made my right leg(broken one) shorter than the left, and this has made my back curve sideways a bit. I hurt my back a while back, and this compounded the problem. But now I do Yoga 4-5x a week, and I'm straight.
