Possible Answer: Last year I broke my arm when I fell off of my
bike. It was the first day of summer vacation and I was very sad
and mad. I would have to wear the cast for six weeks. I
wanted to play baseball and go swimming and I couldn't. My friend
Ryan came over every day. He played with me. We played
things I could do with my cast on. He was nice to me. It
made things a little better.
