Tater’s Broken Wrist

Posted by Troy Eckhardt on March 3, 2010 at 11:12 am

On March 1st, 2010, Japheth, while working on a physical fitness exercise at the cub scout meeting, had a small accident.

Poor Tater.  He looks so glum while telling his cousin about the incident.

Normally adept and agile, the young Tater lost his grip on the monkey bars and fell. After sailing magnificently through the air for a distance of about six feet, he landed face down in the dirt, his poor, unfortunate wrist caught between the hard earth and his abdomen. The radius (the bone of the forearm on the inside of the arm) had no choice but to absorb the shock of the impact a suffer a small fracture.

Tater has chosen a lovely light blue shade for his cast, despite his colorblindness. Stay tuned for the next exciting adventure starring the incredible flying Japheth Eckhardt.
