How would you feel if you broke your leg or your foot? Or any other limbs?
Do you even find something like that fathomable if you have not experienced it?
When we were young boys, my brother indulge in mock-sprint challenges with our cousins. Dashing about 50 metres, they'd do it over and over again.
I have only done it a couple of times before I got bored with that game. My brother however, invariably beat our cousins and was quite proud of it. One day, he just tripped. And landed on his left elbow. Hard.
That put him in a cast for a month. He never got back to sprinting again.
The point is: even for us, his family members, it was a muted affair. I'd never really got to know his experience during those days with his elbow in a cast.
