The doctor is removing my current cast next Wednesday to see how things are healing, and will put another cast on afterward. For my current one I just chose black, but I'd like to be a little more adventurous for my next cast.

 

They have all sorts of colors. This is a sample, but they have a lot more. Thoughts? Poll included.

 

the future's orange!

I've never seen a cast in that fluorescent yellow, so I'd pick that one!

you can get more colours other than off white? wat?!

 

 

 

The green looks nice :wacko:

 

I'd be terrible and get black cause then i'd have an excuse for people who are bad at drawing not to draw on it :|

Apparently they don't use plaster anymore. The doctor put a thin white cloth over the area, and those colored swatches in the picture above are actually fiberglass. It starts out as an ace bandage wrap, and then the doctor dipped the wrap in water and started feverishly wrapping it around the cloth. Once the area was covered he applied pressure which sped up a chemical reaction and made the fiberglass cloth become hard. It was funky because I could feel the warmth from the reaction and it sounded like Rice Krispies.

 

This isn't a picture of mine, but it looks just like this:

If somebody really wanted to, they could sneak in a crappy drawing with a silver marker.

That's really cool :wacko: well done science/modern medicine.

 

 

i live in ireland. nobody has silver markers.

teal green is so pretty

I'd choose dark blue because if it gets dirty it won't be as conspicuous as a yellow or an orange one. I suppose.

Pink!

I changed my mind, choose black!

Waaait, there's no cerulean? No lapis lazuli? Not even fuchsia? How disappointing.

17 votes for pink! :sneaky:

Teal green because I likey that color! Plus, it's the color of my shoes... So if you ever see a girl walking around with teal colored Converse with blue laces, that's me.

wait, when were you in an accident? i see you´re getting better

 

see, no one even sees the REAL problem......... :/

Absolutely fluorescent yellow. I don't know why this is even a debate.

I don't see why it's adebate either: clearly, pink is winning, unfortunately.

pink is gay, choose yellow or black!

pink is gay

 

So pink sleeps with other 560-590nm wavelengths?

i am offended

 

:(

I don't think she'll choose pink anyway :tongue:

Carrie told me she's probably going for * post edited by fellow mod *

It seems like we helped Carrie decide which colours not to pick rather than the other way around.

:laugh3:
