You had a break like THAT? No MRSA I hope! That looked completely terrifying.

Dislocated and broke my ankle.  Foot was not pointing the correct direction.  Kinda flopping.  I have all kinds of new hardware and the damn thing constantly swells up for no good reason.  His was obviously worse...I'm just saying I can relate.

I heard him doing an interview last year sometime where he was saying how he had to 'learn to run again'.  I probably wouldn't have understood that before.
