Wanting to be casted
Written by John on Wednesday, February 7, 2007
I don’t know why I haven’t considered this one more; I just haven’t made the connection or been willing to admit it to myself but now it seems more important in my development. As a kid of about 5 or 6 I wanted, really wanted to have a cast and being very disappointed that I never broke a bone and disappointed that I didin’t get a cast when a sibling accidently hurt one of my fingers. Arm? Leg? Don’t remember which if it matters. Now, this attitude that I had back then seems more BIID-like in retrospect. Or is it? Casts probably look neat to a lot of kids; therefore, it might be a lot more mundane than I imagine. Or was it a sign if incipient fascination with disabilities and being disabled?
