Sean’s earliest memory

Avatar for get_the_author

Written by Sean on Sunday, February 4, 2007

My earliest memory directly related to BIID goes back to when I was about 3 or 4. It is a vivid memory, and when I asked my parents if I had imagined it or not, my parents say that they don’t recall exactly, but what I describe fits with what happened at that time in our lives.

We were moving house, in the process of packing. A friend of the family picked up a curtain rod, one of those ‘L’ shaped ones, and placed it along his leg, next to his angle, and told me that’s how you would do a splint for a sprain/broken ankle.

Not much of a memory, really. But vivid as if it was yesterday.
