X-Ray Art


Don't you think x-rays are cool? If you have a kid, then chances are high that you'll experience a broken bone at some point. My son got a new mountain bike for his birthday, and the next day he crashed into a metal gate, dislocating his finger. While the cast that he had to wear for a month wasn't so great, the x-ray was!


So, never one for missing an opportunity to make something unique, I asked the doctor for a copy of the x-ray, scanned it in, and made a t-shirt for him to show off at school. I put the date of the accident for posterity, and he loves it!


The finger is healed, and happily, the bike made it through unscathed. The t-shirt is still in the top-5 favorites for fashion... my 4 year old wants to know if he can have one when he breaks his finger... uh oh.
