Ice skating and X - ray

On Sunday I went ice skating. I fell over backwards and got a sore left wrist. I had to have an X-ray. The doctor said that I broke my wrist (I have a greenstick fracture)! So I had to get a cast. I chose pink. I got to keep my X- ray (which I think is cool).

One of the problems with having a cast is that I can't go skiing. My little sister is going to learn to ski. I am going to have a snowball fight with Mummy. Later in the ski season my little sister might be able to teach me how to ski!

Cass.
