Calling all Bluemoon doctors to thread

Yup, here we go.

Gutted. He will come back stronger though.

Time to spend in the meantime

 

[Gaylord du Bois]

He's young enough to mend well and soon. He must be gutted, the poor fucker.

 

[citizen_maine]

Oh no! Not the leg bone.

Nope. Break is when the bone snaps apart, fractures are when the bone stays intact but a bit of it splits. A break is like ripping a sheet of paper in two, a fracture is like tearing a tiny hole but leaving the rest of the sheet in tact.

Speedy recovery Bobb.
